If you're an OG listener, you know we started the pod as a hobby during the pandemic. But we weren't the only people following creative pursuits - so many people experimented with baking, cooking, drawing, and many other interesting activities.


This week, we're taking a moment to explore why creative passions matter. For Angela, being a creator is what she has pursued since leaving corporate America. The podcast and Real You Mandarin have been professional expressions of creativity, but she also bakes on the side. Jesse has recently gotten into pottery, and his creative expression has always remained largely a hobby.


What's the difference between pursuing a creative passion for work vs just for yourself? Can you find creative fulfillment in your every day job or life?


Listen in to hear for yourself, and let us know what creative projects you've been pursuing lately!
