MAY 2026 - Creative Community Mixer

If you're a freelancer or creative - this is the event for you.

We're excited to announce the date for our May Creative Community Mixer at The Fold, Leamington Spa. You're on our guest list for this FREE event taking place on Thursday 21st May from 6:00-8:00pm.

Why do you really do what you do? (How knowing that wins you work)

Natalie Smithson’s career doesn’t follow a traditional path, and she’s spent the last two years working out why that’s her biggest asset. From qualitative research to copywriting, and wildlife photography to emerging tech, there’s a thread that pulls her history together and finding it changes how you show up.

Working with founders to unpick and sell what makes their products and services stand out, Natalie will tell you it’s not your choice of brand colour.

It’s not your equipment or technique.

It’s not even your unique talent.

It runs deeper than that.

In this talk, Natalie will share ways to uncover why you’re the only person who can do what you do, in the way you do it, and why that matters creatively and commercially.

__________________________________________________________________________

Natalie works with ambitious, big-hearted founders to get wellbeing tech into the hands of the people who need it. She’s also launched a creative lab called Nova Is Lost to explore inner strength and the notion we have everything we need inside us to tackle anything life throws at us.

With 25 years of experience in digital marketing, comms and editorial, Natalie knows fluff when she sees it. Come along if you want to know how to dig deeper to get to the clients you want, or need help to figure out what makes you different, and use it in everything you do.
