Navigating the Artist's Reality: Crafting Your Own Path to Success

Embarking on a creative journey often means underwriting your dream, especially in the initial stages. It's a tough reality, but there are ways to make the journey more meaningful. In this episode, I share my artist philosophy, which involves going to therapy, redefining success, creating on my terms, studying the craft, supporting fellow artists, experiencing life, and contributing to the greater good. Join me in exploring how defining your approach to your craft can not only make the process more enjoyable but also shape the trajectory of your artistic career. Let's dive into the essential elements of a fulfilling creative journey together. What's your artist philosophy? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

Yours truly,
