Summary

The creative brain is amazing at coming up with infinite options and connections, but sorting through and choosing which options are best and should be focused on is a totally different skill. In this episode we talk to incredible Illustrator and Youtuber Cheyenne Barton, right in the midst of working this stuff out for herself. At the time we talked, Cheyenne was feeling overwhelmed in her practice and I found the vulnerability of this chat to be a real gift. If you’re burnt out or feeling overwhelmed, this snapshot will help you feel less alone in it and may just give you some tools to overcome it! Episode art by Cheyenne Barton and Andy J.

Shian is one of my favorite people to follow online both on Instagram and on

1:10.5

YouTube. Her YouTube videos are just a big cozy cup of tea. It's just a warm vibe to put in the studio. Just throw that thing in the background while you're making stuff.

Great, great vibes.

And I had a blast talking with Cheyenne.

1:27.8

And I'm pumped about this episode because I think at the time I was talking to her she was really going through a kind of
