This week on Creatively Eccentric, I’m joined by graphic designer Angela Lyons, who has made visibility her power move in a design world that hasn’t always seen her.

From her design practice to Font Love Friday, Angela’s work is rooted in joy, purpose, and representation.TakeawaysDon’t apologise unnecessarily in professional settingsKnow your worth and charge appropriatelySet clear, healthy boundariesShow up fully as an underrepresented creative, artist, designer, or entrepreneurChapters00:00 Intro02:42 Embracing boldness and messiness04:51 Angela’s journey into design07:08 Building confidence09:43 Navigating visibility as a person of color12:38 Networking15:09 Cycling + community18:59 Pro bono work20:21 Representation in events21:41 Creating inclusive spaces23:07 Font Love Friday26:39 Why You Shouldn’t Work With Me29:32 Studio Draw34:07 Valuing your worth37:13 Key takeaway38:22 OutroAngela’s LinksWebsite: lyonscreative.co.ukInstagram: @ange_lyonsCreatives Like Us PodcastMentionsHeather Ebanks - Creatives Like Us – Ep 15Central Saint MartinsJammy DigitalAyo AbbasBWOW CyclingThe thoughts and opinions shared by the host and guests are their own.If you enjoyed the episode, please rate, review, and subscribe on your preferred podcast platform.ConnectPitch Heather: [email protected] & Listen: Creatively EccentricSend a voice-note ideaApply to be a guest Instagram: Creatively EccentricYouTube PlaylistLinkedIn: Heather EbanksSupport the show: Buy a Ko-FiOriginal theme music © Creatively Eccentric & Heather Ebanks
