CREATIVES

COURAGEOUS

Podcast

From small business talk, living a creative life,

or overcoming personal and professional obstacles –

let’s bust the ‘starving artist myth’ and

be brave enough to make the life we want now.

Georgie.

Hi there, I’m your host!

I’m a 9-5er, turned full-time multi-creative.

This podcast started as an idea, as I sat in peak hour traffic commuting to Melbourne. I wanted a creative life, but at that point, I didn’t have the courage to pursue it. All I wanted was some cheerleaders in my corner, saying, ‘Yes, it’s possible! Yes, you can do this! No, you don’t have to spend the next 40 years trying to climb a corporate ladder.’’

When the global pandemic hit in 2020, like many other people, my life took on a different course. Mid-lockdown, I handed in my resignation to my 9-5 and went into business with my Mum in our creative studio-atelier Hope & Co. I’m now a full-time creative, and spend my days as a photographer, editorial writer, ceramicist, or creative freelancer. Wherever my creative skills are needed, they go.

I’m not just one thing, and wake up every day loving what I do – and want to help as many creatives as I can. If you’re a creative reading this, listening to this podcast, and resonating: I want you to wake up with that same passion and heart connection for your work every day.

This podcast is a space to learn, grow, and feel inspired by the stories of others who are kicking goals! Join us on this journey, and let’s make your dreams happen too!
