This podcast has lived in my heart (and notebooks) for years. BEYOND Design is finally here—and in this first episode, I’m taking you back to where it all began. From the agency days in Cape Town to flipping through a phone book in Windhoek looking for my first freelance clients… this is the story behind the story.

We talk about why design is only 20% of what we do—and how the other 80% is life, boundaries, burnout, faith, and figuring it out as we go. This space is for the creatives who are building something real, messy, and meaningful. I’m so glad you’re here.
