Thinking back to my conversation with Sonya Ballantyne last episode, I'm struck by her hard-earned sense of self and ability to bring all of who she is to storytelling.

Sonya is doing what she wanted to do. She's seems unstoppable, and I can't wait to see what she does next! 

I'm also kind of scratching my head over how and when I lost touch with the cocksure, unflappable, ready-for-anything creative I felt I was earlier in my career. I'm still good at what I do. It still comes naturally. 

But why did I start doubting myself?

I dig into the good and bad of Me Being Me at this particular point in my career journey. As I get busier and balance freelance client work with forming longterm business goals for Spec, one thing is clear - I love working in pajama pants.

I was who I was.

I am who I am.

What next?

Starting Artists is hosted by Tony Sadowski, owner of media production and voiceover company Spec Communications, LLC.

Thank you!
