In this episode of Monday Meeting, host EJ Brieva leads a discussion about the most valuable career advice community members have received throughout their motion design journeys.

This episode covers:

• Networking fundamentals: Why relationship-building matters more than traditional marketing and business deals often happen in social settings
• Managing creative anxiety: Dealing with perfectionism and finding activities that help you disconnect from work stress
• Career movement: Balancing staying loyal to build relationships versus moving around for diverse experience
• Project completion: Learning that "shots are never finished, only abandoned" and creating reels for clients, not other designers
• Communication: The importance of over-communication and setting clear boundaries to avoid misunderstandings
• Collaboration mindset: Shifting from "the artist" to being a collaborator with clients
