#19: Today's episode, we sit down with Rashad White, an Austin-based photographer, on his experience being a photographer for the past 7 years and making the leap into full-time freelance work.

Key Take-Aways:

1. If it’s a great deal, it’s too good of a deal.
2. Have criteria for “working for free.”
3. Sometimes letting go of creative control can lead to more collaborative projects.
4. Niches find you.
5. Followers does not equal money.
6. Networking is a much slower, subtler, and complex process than the extroverts of the world let on.
7. Jump on the kind of work you want to do.
8. The tool is less important than your knowledge.

I need a break from creating. If you're reading this, you're fucking awesome. I really do appreciate all the love and support I've been getting for this podcast. Coming back with my mind and spirit refreshed on June 16th.

If you leave this moment with me with anything, here are the things I'd like you to leave with:

1. Have an emergency fund. 
2. Follow your priorities, not just your passions. 
3. If increasing your income is not an option, you have to educate yourself.

#13: Creating Things About Not Creating

These past few weeks, I've been struggling to find the motivation to make content for this podcast. In true, Restless Creative fashion, I decided to talk about it. Besides all the superficial reasons I have found to not produce this week, my anxiety and fear of failing has been major roadblocks.

Regardless...

One thing of value I'd like you to get out of this week's episode: when you don't feel like creating, just create. Even if it's about how you can't create. Your creative and ability to create things is skill and a practice. You have keep exercising it.
