In this episode, I’m joined by Alex Dove, designer and founder of Dove Branding Co to talk all about her experience with rebranding her own business. As designers we know designing for ourselves is one of the hardest tasks. In this episode, Alex and Robin chat all about the struggles and tips for branding yourself.

The Anonymous Creative Confession® we're discussing: "Am I the only one that struggles with branding myself? I'm a designer so I know how to build a brand but it's hard to get right when I'm doing it for me. Any advice?"

In this episode, I’m joined by Julie Christie-Clark, designer and founder of The Honest Designer Diaries podcast to talk all about her experience throughout her career as a designer. She shares everything from graduating and getting her first junior design role in the late 90s to now as a content creator and brand design mentor.

The Anonymous Creative Confession® we're discussing: “I worry I am getting too old for a design career. The industry is full of young designers and I feel too old for this. Is it even feasible to stay in design until retirement if jobs are looking for fresh talent?“

In this episode, I’m joined by Jack Chitty, brand designer and founder of Chittco to talk all about his experience with pursuing a creative career even when you’re scared to. We talk about Jack’s life changing medical emergency that pushed him to go for what he really wants in life.

The Anonymous Creative Confession® we're discussing: “I've tried to start a design and illustration page at two different stages but I have an immense fear of failure. So I don't share my work and don't create work for me anymore. I fear people knowing me seeing me fail. I fear failing myself. I fear people judging me.“

CONTENT WARNING: This episode discusses Jack’s first-hand experience with a brain aneurysm including symptoms and the experience along with brain surgery and recovery which some listeners might find distressing.
