You really wouldn’t need anything else to make $10k, but this post.

Hi, Hi!

My name is Calan and I go by all pronunciations.
I’m an Artist and I get to do that.

I’m alsoooo so happy to be a teacher here! If you want to just get to the meat/money of the article, please scroll down and look for Lesson 001: Making your first $10k.

Thank you to our partners for a sold out classroom, Mission in Arts, Blow My Mind Studio, and Bean2Bean Coffee

That was fun! Thanks for coming out Wednesday night!! Keep your eyes peeled for an offer-ing form and your headshots 🙂

homework reminder: fill out your cake (send me a pic so I know it’s done), update your platforms with your offer.

We met this past Wednesday night during Philly Tech Week and launched 69x2030 here at 5th and Cecil, Mission in Arts. This is our neighborhood, a pre-gentrified arts district of breweries, galleries, and what used to be the remnants of the first place I taught weed publicly, Sunflower Philly.

69x2030 is a classroom and founder community dedicated to creating 69 artist millionaires by 2030.

We plan to do that through our classrooms, lessons, teachers and parties. Thanks to everyone for making the first so special, big shoutouts to Bryce & Amanda for being class helpers and Nathan & Sweta for stuffing our folders!

Class Helpers, Students & Teachers, so nice having you all in the classroom!


About 69&Sunny (fka GreenThumb Education)

I started my first education company in 2018 after my mom had a stroke. Teaching was a form of self-preservation, because I knew people could benefit from what I learned during her recovery.

For years, I traveled the country, and then was hired by international publishing, Broccoli Magazine. Soon after and post-covid, I attended my first collective healing retreat, where I created my film, Black Women Are Resting.

Since then, GreenThumb Education has become 69&Sunny, and we’re now making entrepreneurship & investment accessible through our mission, 69x2030.

I say all of this because my journey wouldn’t have been anything if I didn’t practice my offering.

Your offers can be numerous, they will change throughout your life, and they can bring opportunities, dreams, and money to your world.

I recommend everyone practice offerings.

It takes having money, confidence/belief, and helpers to guide you to anything you want in life and I hope 69x2030 becomes one of your guiding systems.

Let’s get you to your dreams and your first $10k!

As a former Experience Designer, I’ve designed complex information into bite-size pieces for projects behind NASA, The Wistar Institute, and other cultural institutions.

What I know: Money, business, and income have been a complex language for far too long.

Entrepreneurship should be accessible, making money should be accessible, follow this curriculum to get closer to your spirit-aligned, first $10k.

If you joined our class on Offer-ing, you know what your offer statement is.
(I’m creating our first workbook right now to help those of you that weren’t in class.)

Once you know your offer statement, practice with a few people, then update your platforms to show others, making sure we have an easy way to pay you for your offering.

Students have been following this system to test offers & stack our income

Follow these simple steps to test offers & get to your first $10k.

  1. Know your offer

  2. Update platforms to show your offer

  3. Make it easy to pay for your offer

  4. Send it to someone, (tweak) + send again

  5. Someone pays (and it’s easy for them to)

  6. Do it 3x - get to $10k (or try #1-5 again)

If you have questions along the way, ask.
