Can you believe we convinced Olivia Herrick to come on our podcast? If you're a graphic designer you probably already know who Olivia is, but if you don't Olivia is a graphic designer based in the Twin Cities of Minnesota, best known for her playful, vibrant, and positive artwork. Though you will often find her glued to her computer at her studio, Olivia finds her greatest inspiration in the great outdoors. We had suuuch a good conversation with Olivia, she is SO well spoken! I always take notes when I'm editing to keep track of points I want to mention in the intro and I had such a long list after editing this episode! We talked about her goal to run the most stress-free studio that she possibly can, the importance of having a daily design practice to get the juices flowing, giving yourself permission to do what feels right for you as opposed to what people on Instagram are telling you you should be doing, being open-minded to change in your business, knowing when to hire help, and at the end she even encourages us not to follow her on Instagram(more on that later)! - Although sorry Olivia I am going to send them to your Instagram because it is a gold mine of inspiration! Obviously this episode is jam-packed with goodness, you're going to love it!
