Testimonials
Jordan White, Full Time Artist
Charlotte, NC
"Art is now my full time job, without Christina, I honestly wouldn't have had the confidence in making the jump!"
“ I highly recommend working with Christina and #LifeInTheDIY! It’s easier than you think to do it yourself… in fact once you do it the first time you will kick yourself at why you waited so long. It empowers you and lifts a curtain from your eyes! What? I can be my own boss? No seriously!! I am a Professional Caricature Artist that used to just draw as my side hustle. Since January 2023 I can proudly say that Art is now my full time job and if it wasn’t for Christina, I really wouldn’t have honestly had any confidence in making the jump. Her advice was on point and tailored to my situation. She gave me clear instructions and action items. Once you shift your mindset and think like a do-it-yourselfer you see opportunity in everything. Stop wasting time dreaming and make it a reality! ”
