We recently connected with Georgia Brown and have shared our conversation below.

Alright, Georgia thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Did you always know you wanted to pursue a creative or artistic career? When did you first know?

From a young age, I dreamed of being an entrepreneur — even imagining owning a candy store one day. But like many, I was taught that the true “American dream” was having the perfect 9-to-5 job. And for a while, I had that so-called perfect life: great salary, security, recognition. But behind it all, I was fighting — not only for my integrity and my character, but for what truly mattered.

That moment came when my mother was diagnosed as terminally ill. Doctors gave her three months, but caring for her became my first priority. Through love, determination, and sacrifice, I extended her life a year and a half. In doing so, I lost what the world called perfect — the job, the image, the life I thought I needed.

But what I gained was purpose. Entrepreneurship was no longer a childhood dream — it became my reality. I built Airbnb businesses, hosted succulent classes to help people relieve stress, and grew into what I call an “event engineer with a twist” — creating unforgettable memories on any budget.

I realized then that I could never go back to working for someone else’s dream. My path is to create, to serve, and to give back — building experiences that truly matter.

Georgia, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit. As a child, I dreamed of owning a candy store — creating something sweet that brought people joy. As an adult when I worked in corporate America or was part of different organization, I found myself planning events, serving on charity committees, and volunteering to give back to the community. Creating experiences and making a difference wasn’t a job to me — it was something that came naturally.

Still, behind the image of success, I was constantly fighting to protect my integrity and character. Everything shifted when my mother was diagnosed as terminally ill. Doctors gave her three months, but I made caring for her my priority, and through love and sacrifice, I gave her a year and a half more. In that season, I lost the “perfect life” the world told me I had — the career, the money, the security. I want people to know through all my difficult times, I gained purpose and deep understanding of self.

That loss propelled me into full-time entrepreneurship. I started with Airbnb properties, creating welcoming spaces for travelers. Then I launched succulent workshops to help people relieve stress through creativity. From there, I stepped fully into my gift as an “event engineer with a twist” — designing unforgettable experiences on any budget. Whether it’s a women’s rejuvenation day, a creative class, or an intimate celebration, my mission is always to create spaces where people feel seen, celebrated, and renewed.

What sets me apart is that this work is deeply personal. I don’t just plan events — I create moments that lasta lifetime, rooted in empathy, resilience, and authenticity. I’m most proud of turning loss into strength and using it to serve others. My brand is built on the belief that everyone deserves beautiful memories, no matter their circumstances — and that’s exactly what I give to each one of my guests.

For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?

For me, the most rewarding aspect of being a creative is the ability to touch people’s lives in ways that last for a lifetime. It’s not just about planning an event, hosting a class, or designing an experience — it’s about watching someone’s stress melt away, seeing a smile come across their face, or knowing I’ve helped create a memory they’ll carry forever. That impact means the world to me.

I find joy in turning simple ideas into meaningful experiences, especially when people walk away feeling lighter, inspired, or more connected. The fact that my creativity can help others heal, celebrate, and feel seen is what fuels me every single day. For me, it’s never just about the work — it’s about creating fabulous moments

How can we best help foster a strong, supportive environment for artists and creatives?

One of the biggest challenges creatives face is being undervalued. People often expect us to pour our time, talent, and energy into projects for free, without recognizing the sacrifice and commitment it takes. As artists, we give so much of ourselves to uplift and inspire others, but too often we aren’t respected or properly compensated.

To truly support a thriving creative ecosystem, society needs to change the way it views our work — honoring it as valuable and worthy of investment. That means making it easier to access real funding opportunities, not scams or empty promises, so creatives can focus on their craft without constantly being taken advantage of. When artists are supported fairly, we can continue to create work that strengthens communities and impacts lives in powerful ways.
