We help creatives discover how to become business savvy creative professionals. We call ourselves the Anti-Starving Artists.
On our podcast, we interview successful creative professionals and entrepreneurs so that you can get inspiration, encouragement, and actionable advice—and so that you can learn how to make money. On our blog, we tackle the difficult questions that we never learned in school. Things like:
• What if my client refuses to pay?
• Should I work for free to build my portfolio?
• How do I find new client
