Building The Paint & Sip Empire
I wasn’t overwhelmed, I was over It.
When I Quit Playing It Safe
There was no dramatic meltdown.
No existential crisis. Just a quiet moment of knowing, this isn’t it anymore.
I had learned the system and its structure.
I knew what made a paint & sip come alive and what made it fall flat. I wasn’t burnt out. I was just getting started.
Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
I Watched the Game Long Enough to Learn It
Every class I taught, every venue I walked into, every awkward host moment.
I took mental notes. I paid attention.
And somewhere between the bad aprons and the generic playlists,
I realised I could make this better. Smarter. More me.
It Wasn’t Just About Leaving It Was About Choosing Myself
I quit for ownership. I wanted to build something that felt more like me.
Something curated, cheeky and elevated.
I wanted more, and I knew no one was going to hand it to me.
I Knew I Had the Creativity the Vision and the Guts
I had been the staff, leader, trainer, teacher, and the driving force behind someone else’s brand.
However, deep down, I knew I wasn’t meant to remain small.
I wasn’t bitter, I was clear. And that clarity became the foundation of Sip & Sass.
Sometimes the Most Boss Move Is Walking Away Before You’re Comfortable
I could’ve stayed longer.
And gotten more secure.
But I didn’t want comfort. I wanted ownership.
And the night I quit?
That was the first step toward everything I’m building now.
Somewhere in the process, the brand caught up with the feeling
Branded Before I Believed was when it started to show. Welcome to Sip & Sass is only the beginning.
Brisbane & Gold Coast, you’re up first. Melbourne & Sydney start chilling the champagne.
The paint and sip party is coming, are you in?
