The Evolution of Sisterhood: Evolving a Multidisciplinary Consulting Vision Under the Helm of Heidi Pearson and Dee Speed

New Orleans, LA, July 06, 2023 --(PR.com)-- Accomplished creative director Dee Speed and seasoned visual storyteller Heidi Pearson have joined forces to launch an inspiring all-women creative consultancy and multi-media partnership. This remarkable collaboration merges Pearson PR Strategy, spearheaded by Pearson, and deedee9:14, the distinguished art and design brand founded by Speed. Together, they are set to redefine the creative landscape, empowering women and showcasing the strength of female-led ventures.

Pearson and Speed decided to deliberately focus on amplifying women's voices as a testament to what it means to actively remove boundaries and declare creative independence, unencumbered by limitations or gatekeeping. Both are touted for crafting transcending visuals and connecting influential people together to show the power in community. Their collaboration serves as a testament to what it means to actively remove boundaries and declare creative independence, unencumbered by limitations or gatekeeping. Together, they draw upon the rich traditions that have shaped their lives, inspired by memories of their shared experiences growing up in the vibrant city of New Orleans, Louisiana.

“Independence matters very deeply to us in recognizing our ability (and that of our clients) to break away from the norm. We adopt new technology and test it quickly. And we unapologetically practice publicly,” explains Heidi Pearson.

“There are no rules. I've personally always lived my life as a renaissance creative; a multi-hyphenate before we even had the term, as an artist, a photographer, a designer, and I don't stay in any one lane. It's made me a better broader creative in a world that would very much like to paint you with one color,” says Dee Speed.

Their latest experiential feté involves a deeper dive into the culinary and historic food scene of New Orleans that spans the African diaspora and a celebration of New Orleans influencers who share in the common sisterhood.
