  • Super helpful podcast for artists

    This is an honest and generous podcast, with real advice that can help you in your creative career. I particularly liked the episode Moving Through Fear as an Artist to Grow. As a creative coach and seasoned art world professional, I can vouch for the fact that this comes up for artists every single day. This episode provides some inspiration and tips to overcome imposter syndrome. Genuinely useful and supportive! Thanks for the great work.
