A mindful approach to AI, marketing, and growth

Join 10,000+ creators, entrepreneurs and small business owners getting thoughtful insights on AI, marketing systems and intentional growth: 

A more intentional way to start your day with AI.

 

Most conversations about AI focus on speed, shortcuts, and doing more.

Rize & Shine takes a different approach.

This newsletter is about using AI as a tool for clarity, reflection, and better decision-making, so the work you do actually supports the life you’re building.

Think of it as a quieter place to land in your inbox.

A moment to orient your thinking before the noise of the day takes over.

You’ll find reflections and insights on using AI with intention, building smarter systems, and creating work that supports a sustainable life — without pressure to optimize every moment or keep up with constant change.

No hustle culture.

No constant optimization.

No chasing trends just to stay relevant.

Just grounded guidance to help you begin your day with more clarity and steadiness.

When you sign up for Rize & Shine, you’ll receive:

  • Thoughtful ways to use AI with clarity and purpose
  • Reflections to help you think more intentionally about your work
  • Smarter systems for content, marketing, and decision-making
  • Occasional tools, frameworks, and resources from CREATORIZE

Some issues are reflective.

Some are strategic.

All are designed to help you start your day feeling clearer and more supported.

This newsletter is for you if:

  • You’re curious about AI but don’t want it to run your thinking
  • You’re building something: a brand, a business, a body of work, or a life, and want to do it sustainably
  • You’re tired of urgency-driven advice and constant “do more” messaging
  • You value clarity, depth, and long-term alignment

You don’t need to be a marketer or technologist to belong here.

You just need to care about how you begin and build.

Here's what some of my clients have to say: 

Taylor

"Once you have a plan and strategy in place, pitching brands gets easier every time! I just got a second partnership with one of my favorite brands and doubled my offer to $3000."

Vince

"Just wanted to share a huge win! Just secured my first 5-figure deal at $56,000 with a really big brand. Really unbelievable to me. Best decision this year was to join...and just follow the game plan."

Sudduf

"I wanted to share that I have had partnerships totaling over $20k and my confidence is through the roof!! Because of the paid partnerships, I've been able to do lower cost promos for super small businesses (which is a passion of mine)."

Breanne

"I leveraged Gwen's process and guidance for my launch...We brought in $11, 484 and I feel really, really happy about that. This program has paid for itself..."

Huyen

"I was able to negotiate with one of the biggest photography brands to $33k...With the strategy I learned...I also upsold my social media package for an extra $14k. OMG!!!"

Taylor

"I have only 8600 followers on Instagram BUT I secured my two biggest partnership for $1300 and $2200."

A thoughtful start to your inbox.
