Hey Natacha — thank you for your response!

Sometimes doing something else entirely can actually be the better option but when we want that something else to be just an easier option we might be looking at the wrong problem altogether. It may not be working in design in itself which vexes you, but maybe just being in a hard situation in general. And that’s completely understandable — starting out as freelance is really fucking hard! But for the record — I never finished school myself and never actually “properly” learned design. I’m doing fine :D

If you’re looking for your spark I can highly recommend the Creative Pep Talk podcast by Andy J. Miller — he’s simply amazing.

I’ve also done a talk about when I was starting out as a freelance (and was failing at it) you can see it here on Vimeo if you haven’t already.

Best of luck on your journey!
