#3: Mari Andrew - The Art of Self-Expression


Listen Later

I speak with author & illustrator Mari Andrew. If you are an artist or creator of any kind, today's episode is for you. Mari Andrew (@bymariandrew) has built a massive and loyal following by sharing refreshingly honest illustrations about life, love, and vulnerability.

In our conversation, we talk about:

  • How she created a career as an illustrator despite not having any formal art training
  • What she contributes most to her success as an artist
  • Why you shouldn't feel guilty for getting paid for your creative work
  • The benefit of not "fitting in"
  • How she deals with criticism and trolls
  • The power of stories

...and much more

Mari is also coming out with a book that expands upon some of her drawings with mini-essays about her journey: Am I There Yet? The Loop-de-loop, Ziggzagging Journey to Adulthood. We also talk about how that book came about.

Mari is a delightful and intelligent woman who is not afraid to speak candidly about who she is and what she's been through. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
