The creative shift is the why behind the work. You might have natural talent, but somewhere along the way, you developed a reason for why you’re doing what you do. And it sure as hell isn’t because being a self-employed creative is easy. This podcast is about remembering why you chose to make art your career, and for anyone navigating the messy, beautiful intersection of art and career. Or, if you’re just starting, how to do it without losing the spark that makes it truly yours, and truly unique. Here, we call out the myths. The “I did it alone” stories. The grind-til-you-break mindset. The idea that your creativity has to become a brand before it gets to be art again.
