What Listeners Are Saying...
My podcast is the no fluff designer reality check you're missing...
I'm Kenzi, the face behind the pod, chicken mom, designer, and coach.
Fast forward to today I've built a 6 figure + design studio, co-founded The Brief Collective, worked with all types of clients (the good and bad), and now I'm here to share my experiences with you. I'm also not the only one who has done this and I want you to hear the success stories from others too.
In 2019, I defied all advice, even from my own professors, by graduating fully self-employed. My journey began in my second year of college when I realized I craved ownership and recognition for every ounce of creativity I poured into my work.
However, it was by no means easy to break the "starving artist" mentality that society shoved in my face since I was a baby creative. After my first year of full-time dedication, my screen displayed a modest $20,000 – half of which vanished to rent payments. Despite this, I clung to the belief that I could only go up from there.
because in all seriousness, you're not getting this type of insight from traditional university or your "design mentor" that never had the courage to step away from their toxic corporate workplace.
