Back to the Drawing Board

I wanted to wrap up the podcast by sitting down with my friend Jana, and giving her the reins. As somebody without an art background, Jana interviewed me about the past 3.5 years, including difficult moments, my favorite episodes and what my plans for the future are. Enjoy and thank you for following along for the journey! Music: https://www.purple-planet.com

And here it is: the final episode of the Back to the Drawing Board podcast. It seems so fitting to end off on a topic that originally was the reason why I started the podcast: community! I was at a place where I felt like I lost my creative community and connecting with likeminded people and talking about all things creative through the podcast was my answer to this. In this last episode, I chat with Megan Sjuts, a graphic designer, educator and creative coach about all the challenges young creatives face, such as comparison and lack of community. I hope you enjoy it! Music: https://www.purple-planet.com [https://www.purple-planet.com]

In this episode I'm chatting with Pascale Côté, a business and creativity coach, about all things creative process, reframing the sensitivity of creatives as something that makes them excellent at their work, and the vicious cycle of overworking and being underpaid. Pascale finishes the episode with offering some awesome tips that you can implement today, so make sure you stick around until the end!

Ready for another solo episode? Inspired by a suggestion from a listener, I take the time here to present the case of Strike MoMA and my thoughts on what this means for me. Strike MoMA is a movement challenging the institutions of the art system today to do better in terms of both their actions and words. I hope you enjoy! Music: https://www.purple-planet.com

After a two month break, I am happy to return with a conversation about graphic novels, journalism, facts and observation. Listen to my chat with artist Alex Bodea to find out more about her graphic novel 'The Fact Finder.'
