Welcome to blipstudio, home of Breah Livolsi Parker... graphic facilitator, motivational thought leader, workshop facilitator, TEDx speaker, author and illustrator. First, let's introduce you to Breah and then we'll talk to you about how she can support you individually and within your organization.
Breah’s passion is inspiring people to be their most vulnerable, courageous, and authentic self, and to offer an opportunity to understand and accept themselves for who they are and who they dream of being.
Breah is inspired by playing a role in invigorating and breathing new life into the heart and soul of individuals and organizations alike. It is her passion to inspire people to be all they can be. Whether illustrating and capturing the conversation or leading it, Breah is fully present, supporting you to be fully present in each moment of your life . Her own life's mantra is "Be who you are...it is so much more than enough!", expressed in her 2010 TEDx Asheville talk...
Breah shares her big idea In her 2010 TEDxAsheville talk, suggesting that many times, we tuck away or give up on our dreams, lose sight of our unique gifts, and ultimately forget who we are. She encourages you to know that we are all good enough to fulfill our heart's and soul's desire to make the difference we wish to make in the world. She reminds us that we are the ones we've been waiting for...
Empowering Individuals &Teams
The first step toward a sustainable culture change is to fully embody who we are as individuals. Whether we are talking about a personal, corporate or organizational culture change, discovering what is so absolutely right with each of us creates a foundation that is unmoved by the constantly shifting winds of change that often make us feel unsteady and unsure of our place. Without this foundation, we lose the truth of who we are and spend our time and energy looking for what we’re doing wrong, and perhaps even believe that we are wrong.
Each workshop is tailored to your specific needs, intentions, and goals, and is built around Breah's proprietary self-inquiry workshops and sessions titled "What's Right With Me".

Drawing the Words Right Out of Your Mouth!
"Not only does she deliver a great record of the meeting as a product, her skills and presence change, positively, the dynamic of the meeting." –SM, City of Asheville
As a graphic facilitator, deep listening, synthesizing, and illustration skills are the key components of what Breah brings to your meeting, along with her creativity and multiple technicolor markers. During the meeting, participants are attentive and engaged as the words and images emerge on the board. After the meeting, participants have a visual reminder of and connection to their experience, or a visual journey map depicting and inspiring their next steps.
Visual Tools & Graphic Facilitation
Breah's years of directing creative teams give her an "inside the walls" understanding of goal setting and achievement, change sustainability and management. In a telephone meeting before your event, Breah will listen carefully to your needs and goals and offer suggestion to best utilize her graphic facilitation work at your meeting. Following your event, the images created are yours, as well as the digital files of the images for distribution to participants.
Breah supports you and your organization, adding dimension and creating an emotional connection for any situation where clarity of communication is the intent.
Whether virtually via meeting platforms or one day soon back in the room together, Breah combines her deep listening skills with her joyful, enticing illustrative style, bringing a sense of fun, connection and collaboration to your meetings.
Here are examples of images created for individuals and organizations, live-time and story maps.

Iconography
Sometimes a speaker would prefer not to have a person obviously drawing during the talk so Breah discreetly draws on paper or ipad on her lap. It's called lap-scribing!
