It feels like we never really seem to stop and reflect on our wins or achievements in business or in life. We've begun noticing that we are constantly busy moving from a project, task or target that needs completing before that next deadline. 📚 Maybe it's deep rooted within our British culture to shy away from kudos. We both often feel hesitant about taking credit and tend not to celebrate the small victories or large successes. This usually stems from our innate fear of looking like we're 'bragging' or 'showing off'. God forbid! 😑 Is it even possible to tell friends or family members about things you’re working on without sounding like you’re full of yourself? 👀 We are taught at a young age that modesty and humility are championing characteristics and boastful comments will make you seem arrogant or even worse, narcissistic. This is NOT how you win friends and influence people. 😕 It's funny that we work so hard, but rarely do adults get opportunities to showcase our accomplishments. 🏆 The real shame is that, if people (including yourself) don’t see your true value, it’s less likely you’ll continue to develop your skills, grow and bring even more value to the table. 📉 With this in mind, we're going to do the very un-British thing and begin a new uncomfortable habit to document and share the things that make us feel proud... And today was one of them moments with our biggest order so far as @Twitter and @Sanofi returned as customers 💟 So, we decided to take a few snaps to celebrate and remember how far we've come on this journey! 🥳 Stay Curious 💭 Stay Creative 🎨🖌 NorteyPitcher 👨🏿‍🎨👩🏼‍🎨 #CreativeCouple🦅 #PassArtOn💟#CoroporateGifting#BoastyBritish #MindfulArt#TeamBuilding#CommunityLove#MentalHealthAwareness#CorporateWellbeing#GoodVibeTribe☮✌#VirtualExperiences#ExperientialLearning#SupportSmallBusiness#ArtSippers

Last week we hosted the @Dnvenergy team with an ART SIPPERS in-person experience. Transforming a boring office space into a place for creativity and imaginative exploration. 🎨🖌 Half of the team had not painted since primary school and many told us 'I can't paint!' so the initial feeling of fear, anxiety and lack of confidence was fairly evident in the room. 😐 Fast forward to the end of the event and you there was sheer joy and shocked excitement coming from the employees mouths, as they stood in amazement at the masterpieces they created in under 2-hours.... Plus, the cheeky sips helped keep the creative juices flowing 😉🥂 #SipSipHooray NorteyPitcher 👨🏿‍🎨👩🏼‍🎨 #CreativeConfidence#Culture#CorporateWellbeing#TeamBonding#TeamBuildingActivities#Unwind#Relax#ArtTherapy#MentalHealthAwareness#ArtSippers

What a way to start our in-person events with our Sippers fang! 🦇 The boos and spirits were flowing 🥂 and the Halloween outfits were glowing 👻 (Can you spot legendary Bob Ross and his happy little trees😅) Such a special night, everyone smashed it with the howl-worthy artworks created. Plus, it was sooo lovely to finally meet some of our sippers in real life! 🤗 #SquadGhouls ☠ Have a little flick through the snaps ⬅️ for a treat for the eyes! 🎨🖌 💟 Big thanks to the incredible team @mercatometropolitano and the sipping team 🥂 @jimandtonicdistillery@germankraftbeer@teneros NorteyPitcher🧛🏿‍♂️🧛🏻‍♀️

Last night I watched a craftsman at work. Personal branding is a key way to grow any business and if anyone has managed to master the art of reinvention, Russell Brand is someone to seriously take notes on. ✏ Having the ability to consistently adapt and evolve to the ever changing environment has been the catalyst to staying relevant and grow his devoted audiences - Leading him to gain an almost cult like status amongst his followers. 📣 Having a well documented relationship with drug addiction, resulting in mental health battles and a mixed career with several ups and downs, Russell has now managed get himself back onto the road to recovery. ⚖ Switching from stand up comedian to presenter, to movie star and now spiritual guru, this incredible transformational journey navigating the pitfalls of success has all taken place in front of the media spotlight. 📸 In a world of unrealistic and useless influencers, Russell's humility and empathy allows him to genuinely connect and relate with everyday people as a real, un-polished and somewhat flawed human. Unique qualities that resonate as I continue on the path to building my own personal brand. 👨🏿‍🎨 💟 (P.s the man gives great hugs 🤗) NorteyPitcher 👨🏿‍🎨👩🏼‍🎨 #Branding#Community#MentalHealth#Creativity#ArtSippers

After many months of remote working and digital isolation, employees are slowly returning back to the office. This transition of daily routine can be rather daunting and unsettling. So, it's never been more important and a high priority for leaders to re-establish and welcome team members (old and new) into the community. With ongoing cuts and sacrifices being made with businesses - team building budgets are getting smaller and smaller or simply going altogether. So, having that quarterly team social event may seem like a waste of invaluable resources. But, if you value your employees as the companies best asset - taking care and investing in your employees wellbeing will always have the best ROI. Yesterday ART SIPPERS hosted the creative CDM London team to an in-person experience. 🎨🖌🥂 #CorporateWellbeing #Community #MindfulArt #TeamBuilding #ArtSippers

It's always humbling and heart-warming to receive kind feedback from our online community of Sippers #Love😊 (Check below to see Anna Lucy's artworks⬅️) With more and more people now working from home - feeling distant and disconnected from your colleagues has become the norm and this has lead to loneliness and depression reaching all time high levels around the UK. Mental health matters and not feeling part of a team not only impacts on productivity, but your general wellbeing can also begin to spiral. Studies have shown that being part of a welcoming and encouraging working environment can be the perfect way to get you out of your funk! 🚀 Stepping out of your comfort zone and trying something new like 'ART' increases your confidence @ARTSIPPERS are slowly building a 'Sippers Society' full of non-judgemental creatives! #Community#Creativity#Culture#MentalHealthMatters#ArtSippers

It's not everyday you get to meet the inventor of a world famous cocktail. Douglas Ankrah was a creative maverick and most known as the man behind the orginal Pornstar Martini, which includes a blend of passion fruit and vanilla with a shot of champagne on the side. 🍹 Last year we were lucky enough to be introduced by a mutual friend and his charming personality, kind heart and quick wit was instantly infectious.💟 He was beyond generous with his time and business advice over the few months we got to know him and we even managed to get him to join us live on our @ArtSippers show. 🤯 Being taught how to make a cocktail live is hard at any moment, but to have the creator watching over you was a pretty intense experience... as you can imagine Nortey made a complete mess of it and his bar shaking skills were well below par. 🤣 Douglas the ever perfectionist was quick to let him know he was doing it wrong and that he should to do it again and again and again - until he got the technique right! As a fellow Ghanaian like Nortey, his story was inspiring and the news of his early passing was very hard to hear and a shock to the system - especially knowing that he was just beginning to build his own brand with his premix P*star bottles and make at home kits (which are delicious🤤). Created in Townhouse London and now loved by many around the world. Douglas' legacy will undoubtedly live on for many years to come and the next time we order a Pornstar Martini, we'll be sure to raise a glass to the main man.🍹 Our thoughts and condolences are with his family. Thank you Douglas 💟 #RIP #PornstarMartini #Legend #Thankyou #DouglasAnkrah #CocktailCreator

This was the moment our client's marquee decided to fly away over the fence and into next-door neighbours garden!! 🏡 #Fail Funny how we all watched it happen in slow motion, but as you can see none of us did anything to stop it! I guess sipping was WAY more important!🥂🍾 The good news is... we had more sun on our faces 🌞 The bad news is... the marque could not be saved 😌 British Weather 1 Marquee 0 #EventsLife #Experiential #BritishWeather #ArtSippers

The more you send out - the more emails pop back in!!! And the vicious cycle begins again.... and again! 🙃 Digital exhaustion is real and the feeling of overwhelm and burnout can lead to even further unproductivity for employees. 🤹‍♂️ If you or your team feel like you need a much-needed time out. Be like Salesforce and give ART SIPPERS a shout. 🎨🖌🥂 "Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you" - Anne Lamott #MindfulArt #TeamBuilding #CorporateWellbeing #StressFree #VirtualExperiences #ArtSippers
