Out There

The Happy Hustle


Listen Later

A career in the arts is tough. Creative professionals are notoriously overworked and underpaid. Even if you "make it," it's easy for your passion to turn into just another stressful job.

On this episode, we bring you a story about photographer and skateboarder Khaleeq Alfred, who has been learning how to walk the line between following his dreams and paying the bills. It's a story about getting the compensation you deserve without sacrificing your artistic integrity, and about finding balance between happiness and the hustle.
