Welcome back to Creatively Opposed, a podcast where we hear real-life stories from first-generation creatives about their journeys. I’m your host, Teneka King, and today I am joined by Lauren Harewood a design and art director.
After years of feeling unseen, unheard, and underpaid in the advertising world, Lauren decided enough was enough. We talk about the bold choice to opt out of traditional systems, the emotional labor of being “the only one,” and the joy of finally working with people and brands that reflect your values. If you’ve ever felt like the system wasn’t made for you—this episode is your reminder that you can build your own.
