This podcast is centered around the highs and lows of being a creative, entrepreneur life and specifically those working a 9-5 while balancing a creative career. I am your host Lola Nychole, designer/visual artist/creative director/ engineer , and I am here to give you the inside scoop on how to maintain, develop and balance your creativity with an emphasis on community powered by Friends with Imagination. 

Each episode of the podcast is centered around one word: and in this episode this word is the "reflection."
