Figuring It Out in Music & Design - Charlie XL

In this episode of Just Being Adultish, Dean and Frank sit down with Charles—a product designer by day and aspiring musician by passion. 🎨🎵They dive into what it really feels like to chase two creative dreams at once, the pressure to “make it,” and the quiet chaos of trying to figure things out without losing yourself. Charles opens up about navigating career confusion, staying motivated, and how his partner (who also joins the episode!) helps keep him grounded when the hustle gets real.This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt torn between structure and passion, stability and risk, or just trying to do what they love while keeping their sanity intact.🎶 Check out Charles’ music on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/5cFU6eku1j9hy1zUo9UYNV?si=FfYmO4GtSUqSPoLrvUt9bA [https://open.spotify.com/artist/5cFU6eku1j9hy1zUo9UYNV?si=FfYmO4GtSUqSPoLrvUt9bA]📌 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe!👀 Follow JBA for more:📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wearejba [https://www.instagram.com/wearejba]🎙️ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wearejba?
