What's The Point

How to be an artist with Justina Blakeney


Listen Later

In today’s episode, we’re honored to welcome Justina Blakeney - award winning designer, artist, New York Times best-selling author. We discuss the fallacy of ‘checking a box’ as it relates to success, and how the box society puts us in is constraining and made to keep us small. Justina shares openly about never fitting in and eventually embracing that part of her and turning it into her superpower - widening ‘the box’ for herself with a more all-encompassing identity. We get into a conversation about Instagram, its’ ever changing algorithms and the need to release control to keep you sane - how to focus on creating vs. consuming, how to evolve with the rapidly changing progression and how to build a career around creativity.
