Creatives Like Us: Amplifying Voices, Building Community, and Passing It On

In this introductory episode of Creatives Like Us, host Angela Lyons (you may know her as Ange) shares her inspiration for creating a podcast that amplifies the voices of creatives of colour. Drawing from her personal journey as a graphic designer, Angela reflects on feelings of self-doubt during her time at Central Saint Martins and how representation and mentorship shaped her career. The podcast aims to celebrate the highs, lows, and in-betweens of being a creative of colour with conversations that inspire others to pursue their creative dreams and open doors for the next generation.

Angela and series producer Heather discuss the vision behind the podcast: to create a platform that inspires collaboration, shares impactful stories, and addresses challenges in diversity and inclusion within the creative industries. With a focus on community, mentorship, and the theme of “passing it on,” the podcast seeks to influence broader conversations about representation and show that there is space for everyone. This podcast is for anyone who wants to be inspired, supported, and empowered in their creative journey.
