The Empowered Creatives

You are NOT Your Work (feat. Claire Malkie)

Listen Later

So many of us artists feel out of depth when we jump from the structured environment of college into the real world. We go from having a rubric and guide to a blank slate. It's a rough transition for each and everyone of us.

This week on the podcast, Claire Malkie - comedian, writer, and actor - and I discuss the big leap and how we learned that...


  • you are not defined by your work
  • the best growth can often be found by moving away from your college friends
  • the importance of creating your own work
  • knowing when it's time to let one project go and move onto the next


    • Your ONE THING this week

    Right down all of your creative passions, projects, and interests. Which ones do you want to monetize and which ones need to stay a hobby for now?
