The best creative career advice I’ve ever received sounds simple: Find Your People. And ultimately, it is a very simple and fundamental piece of any fulfilling life. Surround yourself with people who make you your best self, who inspire you, who understand you, who support you, and you will be a happier person.

…I was also finally aware of how many people are pursuing this path. The fact that there are so many people working and living as professional artists inspired me. Because if they can do it, so can I. Why not me? And why not YOU?

The phrase on loop in my head for the past year has been this: Follow Your Curiosities. It’s my permission to myself to go with the flow and see where it leads. You don’t need to know the destination to start the journey.
