FULL SHOWNOTES To view the full episode show notes, visit: https://www.perspective-collective.com/side-hustlers-perspective/ade-hogue-tribute My brother, Broderick Adé Hogue, sadly passed away this Halloween weekend. (There is a GoFundMe to help his family here.) The creative community has been robbed from witnessing an up-and-coming juggernaut that was making a powerful dent in this world… We’ve not only been robbed by his one-of-a-kind, industry-leading talent… But by his presence and kind-hearted spirit. My goal with this episode/blog post is to:
Rest easy my dude—keep inspiring the masses in your next life. Love ya brother. 😭 --- RESOURCES & REFERENCES | |||

This is the power of personal projects and the doors they can open. That’s the story of today’s guest—Kiel (Keel) Mutschelknaus (Mut•chick•nouse)—a sorcerer of code, animation, motion graphics, and type. He’s the wizard behind the Space Type Generator, a personal project that’s helped land him big-name clients like the New York Times, MIT Tech Review, Wall Street Journal, and Apple. What fascinates me the most is that he has built this success all outside his teaching day job and being a family man to three little nuggets at home. In this episode, we talk shop on niching down and hiring yourself for a season, focusing on play over making cheddar, showing the work you want, and more. My goal with this episode is to show how building personal projects around your strange and weird interests are the key to attracting big opportunities. --- RESOURCES & REFERENCES CONNECT WITH KIEL ---- GET A GLOBAL PODCAST SHOUTOUT FREE TOOLKIT TO SIDE HUSTLE FREEDOM FINANCIALLY SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON JOIN THE PRIVATE FACEBOOK COMMUNITY FOR CREATORS PURCHASE THE SIDE HUSTLER’S HANDBOOK PDF COURSE BEST DEALS ON THE BEST DESIGN RESOURCES (Affiliates)

FULL SHOWNOTES To view the full episode show notes, visit: https://www.perspective-collective.com/perspectivepodcast/223 --- How to Know When You’re Doing Too MuchI’ve learned over the years that my No.1 culprit for anxiety, stress, and burnout is... DOING TOO MUCH. For years, I've always felt like I had to do ALL the things ALL the time. This stemmed from feeling like I got a late start, and/or I wasn’t doing enough compared to everyone I looked up to. I saw quick growth early on by saying YES to everything... But then it led to some seriously defeating plateaus. I want to share today how I’ve been able to constantly get myself “unstuck” over the years. It’s all about my daily mindset and motto that’s helped me explode my once-hobby and side hustle into a full-time dream job. The goal of this episode is to show you how to reduce the overwhelm and increase your focus, so you can experience more results. RESOURCES & REFERENCES

FULL SHOWNOTES To view the full episode show notes, visit: https://www.perspective-collective.com/perspectivepodcast/220 One of the hardest pills for me to swallow while playing this creative game is this: Not everyone will love you OR your work… (Maybe you’re one of the lucky souls whom this shit doesn’t bother.) But, if you’re a recovering people-pleaser like I am, it’s a hard truth that takes time to embrace. Hence why my forever motto is, “You can’t make everyone happy, you’re not pizza!” In today’s episode, I'm going to break down why it’s GOOD for people to unfollow you (or unsubscribe). That way, you’re in a better mindset to embrace it and use it as a springboard to take your creative pursuits to the next level—where your foundation is solely built on producing and sharing work that’s true to your core. I’ll also share some of my biggest lessons learned on how to shift this into a more positive and productive perspective.

| Blaze Your Own Creative Path on Your Own Terms | 09 Jun 2021 | 00:22:06 | |
Blazing Your Own Creative Path I’ve learned in my 11-ish years of grinding on the side post-college there is no “one-size-fits-all” creative career path. I used to try and follow in my idol’s footsteps the realms of art, design, podcasting, speaking, etc. However, following someone else’s path only made me feel like an unfulfilled and unsuccessful version 2.0 of them. Instead, I decided to bet on myself and do things my way OUTSIDE a day job, family, and life responsibilities. That’s what blazing your own path is all about:
