Talent was never the problem. The money myths are. 💸

So many gifted artists, designers, musicians and writers stay broke — not because the work isn't good enough, but because of what we're taught to believe about money and creativity. Here are five myths worth unlearning 👇

🚫 "Charging more scares clients away." → Undercharging is what quietly drains you.
🚫 "Do what you love and the money follows." → Passion isn't a pricing strategy.
🚫 "One big client means I'm secure." → One client is one point of failure.
🚫 "I'm a creative, not a numbers person." → Avoiding your finances is what keeps you broke.
🚫 "It's your art OR the money — pick one." → Your perspective is exactly what people pay for.

This is exactly why we built ArtBiz. 🎨

ArtBiz is a EU-funded programme helping creative people turn their craft into a sustainable business — without needing big savings, a huge following, or a business degree. We focus on the practical things that actually change your income: pricing your work with confidence, building income that doesn't depend on a single client, protecting what you create, and growing on your own terms.

And we built it for everyone — with real support for creatives from underserved backgrounds, because your story and perspective aren't obstacles. They're your edge.

We have officially kicked off the Sa-Fi project in Malta!

We are making great strides in developing modules and innovative tools that empower adults—especially seniors and vulnerable groups—to become more resilient in today’s digital financial ecosystem, where convenience and scams can often be just one text message apart.

Stay tuned for more updates as we work towards building safer and more inclusive digital financial literacy solutions.

February 24th is Estonia’s Independence Day! 🇪🇪

It's a public holiday and a day off for Estonians as they unite as one, take part in the flag raising at P**k Herman Tower, enjoy the military parade, spend time with families and friends to celebrate freedom and Estonia, their beloved home country.

February 24 is one of the most significant dates in Estonia’s history, as it commemorates the declaration of independence in 1918. After centuries under foreign rule and the War of Independence that followed, Estonia secured its freedom and became a sovereign nation.

Celebrate like a true Estonian checklist:
🏰 Flag-raising at P**k Hermann Tower at 7:33 AM - keep an eye out for the President of Estonia, Alar Karis. 👀
🎖️Military parade at 12 PM on the Freedom Square, join the celebration!
🐟 Don't miss out on traditional dishes like kiluvõileib (sprat sandwich) during the day. It really tastes amazing!

Happy Estonian Independence Day! 🇪🇪
