No one teaches creatives how to manage money, build networks or reframe how we see our work. 🎙️ That’s what this week’s episode with David Thomas is all about. Listen on Spotify, Apple or YouTube 🎧

I need to post more on this! Hope everyone is having a great week! As lot of us know creative work comes with a lot of guessing especially when it comes to managing money and networking. This week’s episode really helps unpack it all, and I can’t wait to put this one out. 🎙️ Dropping Wednesday.

Really terrific article on the future of soaps by @callikitson.bluesky.social where I argue alongside Rosie Marcel - the mighty Jac Naylor - that the answer to the crisis isn’t axing shows and timidity. It’s investing in a new soap and bravery. Check it out 👇 metro.co.uk/2024/11/19/s...
