Take care of your mind, body, and spirit, and your creativity will shine. Remember, as a creative, you have the power to inspire yourself and others. Don't hold back, feel insecure, or lose hope. Your talent is a gift that can bring you joy, success, and fulfillment. Trust in your abilities—they will guide you to your own success. Keep learning, follow your path with faith, and always trust your intuition. Work to make a difference, not just to impress. Balance work with rest, and remember: God, yourself, family, and friends come first, not just your job.

(Spoiler: it doesn’t work that way.) Peace turned out to be one of the hardest things I’ve ever pursued. It’s not […]

Although Halloween isn’t really part of our tradition on this side of the world, today’s topic couldn’t be more fitting! 🎃 Client ghosting—it’s the silence that rings louder than words, leaving us wondering what went wrong. But maybe, just maybe, it’s not a rejection but a redirection.

You see, back then, I didn’t have a fancy term for it. Some might call it a sixth sense, and others might label it as intuition. But for me, it was simply knowing—knowing what the client wanted.

Is it comparing apples to apples? Pros, and cons, and why sometimes, you don’t need a Mercedes to get from point A to point B.

About two years ago, I realised how much my graphic design career had influenced my always-on, rushed, and driven life. We’ve been groomed from our studies to work and business to be deadline-driven, and this mindset seeped into how I managed myself and my family. It has been a struggle to break free from this […]
