Friends
Good people are worth knowing.
There’s room for all of us here. I believe in supporting the people who make this community warmer, safer, more creative, and a little more interesting.
These are friends, colleagues, and people whose work I genuinely appreciate. If I've sent you their way, it's because I think they're worth getting to know.
Spryte the Fairy
Bridge to Everland
My friend Spryte believes there's a little magic in genuine connection, and honestly, I think she’s onto something. She’s warm, wonderfully unique, and she’s created a whole world around helping people feel seen and welcome exactly as they are. If you're curious where the Bridge to Everland leads, go say hello to my favorite fairy. 🧚♀️.
Raj Soundragon
Soundragon Marketing Solutions
If you're wondering who helped me turn “Daisy the Gunn” into all of… this, meet Raj! He helped me build this website and translate the woman behind Daisy into a brand that actually feels like me—not some generic version of who the internet thinks I should be.
He works with independent professionals in our industry on websites, branding, marketing, and the occasionally ridiculous number of little things that come with running your own business. More importantly, he gets that the person doing the work should remain the person in control of it.
Joel Padgett
Joel the Photo Guy
Joel is one of those photographers who knows how to find the person in front of the camera, not just the pose. His work moves between portraits, couples, personal branding, and cinematic photo and video, with a style that feels polished without losing the personality underneath. If being photographed makes you a little nervous—or you just want someone who can turn an idea into something genuinely beautiful—Joel is absolutely worth knowing. 📸
Aria Bliss
Moments of Bliss
Aria is colorful, wonderfully unconventional, and genuinely passionate about helping people connect. They’ve built their own little universe affectionately known as Moments of Bliss where playful content and plenty of personality live alongside dating advice, profile help, and intimacy coaching. What I especially love about Aria is that underneath all that bright, mischievous energy is someone who really cares about people feeling seen, understood, and a little more confident being themselves. If you could use some sunshine in your life, go find your bliss at Moments of Bliss. ☀️💕
