Claire is a wonderful host and has a natural ability to get the best out of her guests. A brilliant show with a true mission to demystify the creative industry, not just for younger generations but for those of us heading into our third decade of work. Thank you, Claire
Keep it up Claire.
This is such a great show - I love how it delves deep into people’s journey into design and allows the time to explore what makes this industry so special. It’s a must for everyone interested in design, but should also be prescribed for those interested in business and social change.
Really look forward to this each week. A diverse range of people working in the design industry with inspirational stories to tell and great advice - whether you’re starting out in design, following a career in it already or just have a passion for all things creative.
Insightful behind-the-scenes stories from creatives about how they ended up in design. The show format makes for easy and inspirational listening and brings a human side to a polished and sometimes overly slick exterior representation of the profession.
Key themes from listener reviews, highlighting what works and what could be improved about the show.
