My guest this week is designer, artist and pop-phenomenon Stavroula Adameitis - though you may know her by her pop art moniker, Frida Las Vegas (www.instagram.com/fridalasvegas).   I have long been a fan of Stav’s creative output, from her illustration, to her actually LOL-inducing Instagram captioning for said illustration, to the practical application of her aesthetic through jewellery design and now fashion and textiles and a foray into the “serious art world” through gallery shows and neon-fused illustrated artworks.   There are a few people in the world who gave me more life as a creative. She is one of the most focused and dedicated practitioners I have observed, a master class in leveraging your skills to earn an income to facilitate a creative practice that speaks to your soul.   I wanted to talk to Stav about the practical side of how she structures her day and designs the life to facilitate the work. She shares wisdom around motivation, determination and how to tackle the process of moving into a career path that is aligned with your what you’d not only love to do - but what you NEED to do.
