In this episode, I'm chatting with self-proclaimed "part-time" Mexican-American artist Marlene Vega! Marlene actually has a master's degree in physics, but found her way back into art after graduation. She started off painting watercolor pieces just three years ago as a hobby and now has an amazing online shop and over 95,000 Instagram followers. She shares her artistic career online while having a day job, and she's the perfect inspiration for anyone who is just starting out or feeling a little stuck in their career right now.

Keep on listening to hear us talk about why she decided not to go to art school, how she got comfortable making video content as an introvert, and how she deals with the feeling of being "behind."
