<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you&#8217;ve ever felt creatively restricted by your corporate job, move over! Brittany O’Brien of <a href="https://brittanypaige.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brittany Paige Designs</a> ;feels your pain, but better yet, she acted on it. She launched her namesake brand in 2017 with six greeting cards — ;all concerning break-ups — ;and although the release was small, it proved to be incredibly powerful. With it, Brittany was officially uncensored, untethering herself from how she was in her words &#8220;taught to be small.&#8221; ;</p>

infusing some financial muscle as well. ;</p><div class="inline-post clearfix"><div class="see-also byline">See also</div><div id="block-wrap-53917" class="block-wrap-native block-wrap block-wrap-23

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">First she pre-released a powerful &#8220;They Won&#8217;t Stop at Roe&#8217; sticker June 24, with 100% of proceeds benefiting Arc Southeast. Then she got 29 other gift and stationery brands on board to donate all online sales for one day — ;July 12 — ;to The National Network of Abortion Funds. In all, over $15K was raised, with Brittany donating a cool grand.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Brittany opens up about her approach to infusing her beliefs into her merchandise, lessons learned from July 12 and a peek into what she&#8217;s showcasing at NY NOW when it opens its doors in six short days. Finally, her take on that &#8220;cringey app I was resistant to,&#8221; TikTok, is not to be missed! ;</p>
