What does it mean to have enough? Can we get rich ethically? How to price our work?  In this week's episode, Sara sat down with Alice Gabb, a lettering designer, activist and banner maker based in East London. We had an honest talk on Alice's entrepreneurial journey, the importance of pricing and valuing our work as full-time artists, and the problems of "Girl Boss" culture. "People are really curious if I do this as a full-time job. I get that all the time. We've been taught a certain path. Often when I walk to the studio, I just think how lucky I am." "The struggling artist works for some people, but those people are exceptional. Eventually, when I was able to earn more money, I wanted to make sure that everyone else learned what I had learned. If I don't charge enough for my banners, why am I doing it? You are not helping your community or your industry if you price your work too low. We have a responsibility as artists."

Banner Maker Alice Gabb on Pricing Her Work & The Problem with the Girl Boss Culture.

Alice Gabb is a handlettering artist and banner maker based in Hackney. With a signature wonky and wonderful, perfectly imperfect calligraphy style, Alice is absolutely 100% the right side of whimsical. We discussed so many of her passions and projects in this episode, including handlettering that isn't cookie-cutter, solo exploring, where to get cake in East London, kombucha, social justice, and protest banners.  Find Alice at https://www.alicegabb.com and on instagram at @alicegabb

Alice Gabb: Hand Lettering, Solo Travelling and Using Language for a Better World

This week on Conversations of Inspiration, Holly meets Alice Gabb - a self taught calligrapher who now creates commissions for some of the UK biggest brands.     In this conversation, Alice shares lessons from her journey so far, the power of knowing your numbers, as well as the need for communities in this digital age. Alice's letter to her younger self is particularly powerful - and a must listen for any teenage girls in your life.    Alice started her small business selling hand printed fine stationery at Broadway Market, where she was voted ‘London’s Coolest Stall Holder’ which propelled her business forward.    One of the first to specialise in modern calligraphy in the UK , Alice’s expertise has grown and with her desire to pass on her skills and knowledge to others, now teaches workshops all over London and Europe, delivering in store experiences for brands such as Ted Baker and Boden.     Her recent trip to America discovered a passion for activism and social change, creating beautiful flags to spread hopeful messages, and is now shining through in all her work.   Enjoying listening to these unfiltered chats? It's worth following Holly Tucker MBE and Holly &amp; Co on Instagram, and subscribing to our weekly newsletter on our website, where Holly downloads her thoughts, and exclusively shares small business finds and topical, 'ungoogleable' business advice.
