This is a podcast about belief, embracing risk as a business owner and being open to creative opportunities despite lingering imposter syndrome.
Today we bring you an inspiring conversation with muralist Daren Todd who transitioned in to art after his boss told him to go and follow what made him happy. From painting fences for free to a collaboration with IKEA there are plenty of ideas here to help you think more expansively about how your art can impact people around you, your community, and why it really matters.
Key takeaways: keeping a short line from idea to implementation, continuing to experiment with new ideas and ways to bring your art to people, the importance of referrals and getting known for one thing and why 4hrs spent on SEO could really be am afternoon well spent.
