    I had the pleasure of working with Nubia Natalie Arribeno, who conducted a business audit for my apparel brand, Mixed Up Clothing. With her extensive experience in the fashion industry and as a business owner herself, Nubia’s insights were truly a game-changer. Her thorough and well-researched audit helped me break down my business operations into clear weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly goals, giving me the structure I needed to move forward with confidence.

    Her attention to detail and timeliness made a huge difference in how I approach my business. What stood out even more was her continued support beyond our project where she regularly reached out with relevant information and took the initiative to connect me with experts in her network. Nubia exceeded expectations, providing not only a strategic roadmap but also invaluable resources and connections.

    I highly recommend Nubia to any business looking to gain clarity, structure, and lasting support. She brings expertise, thoughtfulness, and genuine care to everything she does.

  • How to Launch Your Fashion Business

    "I’m so happy I took Natalie’s Conscious Fashion Courseon starting my own fashion business. It provided me with the essential tools and knowledge I needed to confidently launch my brand. There are so many details and industry insights that aren’t easily accessible, but Natalie breaks everything down in a clear, structured way. The templates and guides she provides are incredibly helpful, making the process so much smoother. Plus, she is so friendly, supportive, and truly invested in her students’ success. If you’re thinking about starting your own fashion line, I highly recommend this course—100% worth it!"

  • 1:1 Fashion \ Business Blueprint Session

    Nubia and I have worked together in numerous projects. Each time we met, I felt—and continue to feel encouraged to be my full self—actually fullerthan I had imagined. Initially, there was quite a bit of undoing and releasing on my part and through it all, she held space and nudged me forward until I arrivedtoa point of finally trusting and integrating my passions with my inherent knowledge . With the wonderfully organized and personal task lists that she created for me, I started to do the work and stand up for my goals—no matter what they are—even if nothing seems to make sense, I followed her plan. Through the creation of my website, I continue to build and integrate my voice—in all senses of the word. Ultimately, I like how I see myself through Nubia’s eyes.
