In this episode I chat to illustrator and creative, Stacie Bloomfield. We had a wonderful (nearly hour-long) chat about all things creative including her thoughts on why you need to give yourself margin in your creative pursuits.Β
Stacie talks about her illustration business, why she takes herself off on creative retreats and shares some truly inspiring quotes on creativity too.Β
This really was an inspiring conversation for me and I hope you find it does the same to you too.Β
