Welcome to #003 where me and Dom went to see Chelsea Slater at Liverpool Girl Geeks & Innovate Her HQ in Liverpool.

We hear all about how Chelsea decided to be proactive about the gender gap in the tech/digital industry when she encountered it first hand. It's so inspiring to hear how after toying with a few different career paths Chelsea finally took action and dived in head first when she found her passion!

Also, if you're interested in the subject of the gender gap in tech and ways of introducing women and girls of all ages to the industry, this ones for you.

Make sure you give Chelsea and her team a shout if you want to explore this further:

Well the feedback's been great from last week, loads of constructive stuff as well which has been useful so a big thanks from us!

Me and Joe spoke to Simon Stanford this week. He's a young film maker who's got a 10 year plan to make a feature lenghth film. He's also working full time, making short films and learning to ride a bike! We touch on staying motivated, embracing failure and creative confidence.

We mention the book Creative Confidence a few times in this episode and would definitley recommend if you're interested in cultivating your creativity in whatever you do. Here's a link https://goo.gl/hoKePU
