Having lots of different interest helps make your art stronger. Why you should always stay uncomfortable. And how to master self confidence. Holly Hatam is this episodes guest. We dive deep into these topics and much more.

This week’s feature picture book is Dear Boy, a companion to the #1 New York Times bestseller Dear Girl. This story is an open love letter to boys.

Holly Hatam is an illustrator whose art always makes me smile and whose books inspire me. She lives in Whitby, Ontario.
