Defiantly Go Against the Grain
Fear, self-doubt, anxiety, creative ruts, and frustration are all a part of pursuing your creativity on your own terms.
It’s an undisclosed waiver you sign when you pour your time and energy into building toward the unknown.
Just know you’re not alone with your struggles, and trusting the process is worth it!

She’s been featured by and worked with some of the biggest brands in the game: NBC, Martha Stewart, Skillshare, Google, Vogue, and more.
What I respect the most is her focus on serving and empowering the creative community.

Becoming Your Own Boss
The majority of people listening to the podcast aim to become their own boss one day.
To do so takes years of failing, experimenting, developing systems, and finding what works.
It’s not supposed to be easy—but the struggle is hella rewarding when things begin to click.
Today’s guest—Jimmy Bryant of Atomic Child Design—is a nature-inspired artist/brand slanging millions in merch across the land.
To say Jimmy’s story of “Washing dishes for $10/hour to becoming his own boss and making a killing off selling his work” is inspiring doesn’t do it justice.
I think you’ll find it fascinating as well.
In today’s episode we talk shop on:
- Not chasing profits right away.
- Operating with a chip on your shoulder.
- Creating what you love and finding your niche.
- Becoming your own boss
- Selling merch, slow scaling, and more.
The Goal: To empower you with motivation and actionable steps for becoming your own boss one day.
