On this episode, well over half a year after launching this podcast, I decided to pull out my very first episode to help explain my "why." If you have not listened to this episode, it's a must listen. If you have listened to it, well, maybe it's time for a cautionary tale refresher! Either way, here's the WHY for this episode:

πŸ€” Why did I start this podcast?
πŸ€” Why did I start a learning program for designers?
πŸ€” Why did I decide to overhaul my entire design business?
πŸ€” Why do I operate my design business as a business?
πŸ€” Why do I place such stringent policies and processes in place for my clients (and me) to follow?

Well this episode will explain my why in all it's gory detail! 😬
This episode talks about my lowest point in life and career. And boy was it low!Β 

The very moment when I knew I had to make a choice to either slither away and lose everything or make big changes and begin the rest of my design career the right way. At this point, you know what my choice was, but let me tell you how I came to that decision and the steps I took to get there. Grab a strong drink, and sit back and listen to the most pivotal moment in my life and career.Β
