Why is imposter syndrom so common among creatives? In this episode of The Not Creative Podcast, we sit down with graphic designer Jimmy SK Leung to unpack the benefits and the frustrations of being creative and how those around us influence our work.
We talk about:
– The tension between art and commercial demands
– How collaboration (and conflict) can make or break a project
– Why focusing on awards can lead to hollow ideas
– The need to be braver (and how we can push for that in our clients)
Creativity isn’t just about big ideas. It’s about navigating people, expectations, and risk.
