Listen "160. A Week in a Creative's Life - Martine Severin"
Episode Synopsis
Ever wonder what a full week in the life of a professional photographer really looks like? I'm pulling back the curtain and taking you with me through a jam-packed week of creative hustle and real-life moments. From juggling four different photoshoots centered on Black Joy to managing client proposals and sneaking in family time, this episode is a raw, honest look at the daily dance of a working artist. I'm sharing it all—the early morning meditations, the last-minute changes, the on-set surprises, and the quiet moments of reflection that keep everything grounded. This isn't about a picture-perfect schedule; it's about the messy, beautiful reality of building a creative career, one day at a time. Join me for a different kind of episode where you'll hear what it truly takes to get the work done while keeping your creative soul nourished.
