Listen "How to Find your Creative Identity: Part 2 with Gina and Kai Leia Clay"
Episode Synopsis
What do you want? Is your art a business or a hobby? How are you treating your business or hobby?
These are all questions we dive into in Part 2 with Gina of Kai Leia Clay. Gina talks about what it means to be a "hands on" mother who is there for every moment.
Key Takeaways:
1. Know your boundaries! Create in your own time and your own way. Remember: boundaries don’t always mean you keep people out of your life; sometimes its a healthy way to let them in.
2. Prioritize people. How many people in your friends and followers listst on social media have you really met? Out of those, how many have you really impacted and built a relationship with?
3. Take steps back to evaluate yourself! There is extreme value in a pause. Who are you? What do you want? Is making a business, a hobby? Doing the deep work now will help you prioritize in the future. Once you know what you want, you can begin to see what you need to do to achieve those goals, and get better.
4. Finding your identity as an artist and maker is a lifelong process. Choosing what to make, how to make it, etc., will be ongoing… and subject to change!
5. Consistency and slow growth can often lead you to lasting success, and it’s okay NOT to want that over overnight success! There’s not one path to success, because there are different definitions of success. What you want matters. Go get it!
