<p>This week is all about my favorite things — SYSTEMS. Especially as Type A people, we can all feel like we have too many pots boiling, and we're behind and letting life happen to us. Today on the show I have one of my favorite business friends Paige Buck, and we're talking about the systems and hacks we have in place to create a highly efficient life.  </p>

S1E16: PAIGE BUCK — Type A Systems to Hack Your Life

What is the Type A Creative? I'm so glad you asked!
 
The Type A Creative is a podcast for driven creatives. 
 
For a long time, when I thought of the word "artist" I usually thought of a painter — someone floaty and magical, absorbed in their own world of art.
 
But, I'm not like that. Yes, I'm a writer and designer. But I've got a business brain and some monster-sized ambition to match. For years I've been running a business and building a career around my creative skills. But now, I'm also working to cultivate a creative practice that's not necessarily for sale, for a client, or to fulfill some ambition. I'm out to have some "creativity for keeps."
 
As driven people, we often have a hard time believing this kind of creativity is "worth it." We sneakily talk ourselves into thinking it has to turn into a business, otherwise, it's indulgent, or simply not worth our time.
 
I'm looking for a bit of inner peace between my driven entrepreneur and my inner artist. My question for myself, and hopefully all of you is, "How do we balance a life where we want BOTH? Both creativity and art, but also big career goals?"
 
In this podcast, I talk to people who are starting new creative projects, have thriving creative projects, and have conversations with a rotating cast of my smart friends — from fellow bosses to creative directors and working writers, filmmakers, and artist. 
 
Together we have conversations about what it is to be both Type A and creative.
