28. #sharkmode

Well, what can I say? I’ve been busy covering songs on instagram and questioning my existence. So my escapism led me to record this episode in a very special setting creating a literal nature overdose on all levels. Tune in to discover the story and meaning behind this episode’s title while we dive deep into: animal kingdom analogies — my love for music and fear of singing (unfortunate, I know) — the importance of being kind and having a growth mindset — my new favorite creepy activity — how to disturb my zen as demonstrated by *special* guests. In case I forgot to mention something, let’s blame the fact that it’s almost 3am. Gn8 <3

27. of copycats and naked men: design school tales

In this new episode with a Steinbeck-inspired title, I think back of the *g00d* old times when I paid way too much for my education (on all levels) and worked myself into burnout. Some serious tea is being spilled as I reminisce about originality and copycatting. Oh, and I tell you about that one time in figure drawing class I got very *deep* insights. It’s a great story… looking back from a safe distance.

I’ve been feeling down today. So here is a piece of raw self-reflection as I feel all the feels and share this vulnerable lowlight moment with you. I hope you can take something away from it <3

25. analysis paralysis

This episode is an attempt at overcoming perfectionism-fueled paralysis by analysis and at providing "life coaching advice to manic-bipolar hobby artists who spend too much time indoors working on their art". So we’re talking: creation over perfection — why city safaris always pay off — what being an artist is truly about — #quickanddirty vibes — having a hobby vs. a business — and the obligatory food cameo. Fingers crossed for a fresh start in the next episode. Speaking of fresh:

Tune in to learn about my funny childhood moments, THE best parenting style, a special mother-daughter bond (feat. anxiety) and… how to toot your own horn (I think I overdid it this time, oops). Happy Mother’s Day from my Mom to yours. Have fun, sweetheart <3
