Episode Summary
I’m throwing out the rules and strategy by launching a vulnerable new series exploring my own creative block during Gemini season. Despite supporting clients through custom design work for over a decade, I’ve been experiencing a personal creative stagnation that I’m devoted to working through publicly this month. This episode introduces my experiment in "trying in public" - sharing learnings and revelations in real-time rather than waiting for mastery.
