Life is Better Sketching: Stumbling Toward Genius with Koosje Koene


Listen Later

What happens when you lose your mojo by making the stuff you are told to make instead of what you want to make?

Today, we’re sitting down with Koosje Koene to talk about how burnout in her photography business led her to a series of dull “cubicle” jobs. It was then that she started spending all of her free time soaking in her creative pursuits and drawing each day. Now she teaches others how to develop their own creative practice.

Listen as she walks us through:

  • Why draw? How sketching challenges us to step out of our comfort zone
