Doing Fine Podcast
A podcast about creative growth, your twenties, and loving yourself.
Join me as I ask artists about their inspirations and career advice, talk about how to adjust in fluctuating relationships, how to overcome imposter syndrome, how to balance freelance projects with your day job, and many, many more. This podcast is my exploration of creative confidence and human growth. It’s my first step in choosing to break past my insecurities and seek to express rather than impress. To ask fearlessly, to heal, and to listen. To choose love in a world that seems to be on fire all the time. And perhaps it can be your first step too. You are listening to Doing Fine.
