I haven’t watched your videos for a while. But I do have to say. Your speaking and delivery has improved a ton!

[dashiajames]

This all makes sense. I'm so scared to make a IG video that I keep saying I never want a video..!! Thanks for the advice.

Great advice! What do you recommend for getting back in the creative field after taking a break? I had a baby and took a break to parent and build my own business. Now I want to work for a company as a graphic designer. How do I market myself?

Always enjoy your videos.

Having 12 job changes is a little frightening in itself. Some of the job changes are done willingly and some are just being fired. For the latter, what strategies can be used to over come doubt and loss of self-confidence to go on to have a productive career in design? What can one do to turn lemons into lemonade?

[jarmelo]

The negative thinking was tough for me.
