    Maybe you're thinking here's another podcast. There's a lot of them out there but for the most part, when they have a guest is usually someone famous or successful. So, I wanted to give a voice to smaller creators, to share their stories, thoughts, and work. In a world that's usually cares more for people that are already at the top and not so much for those that are trying to get there. (‘’small’’ there's no small creators) I believe that conversation equals inspiration and I want to sit down with creators to talk about their process to get to their dreams and what struggles they are facing. So, if you are an illustrator, designer, filmmaker, a creative in any way, send me a message on my social media or if you know someone that would like to be part of this please share this with them. And it doesn't matter in which country or continent you are, because we will be filming most of them remotely. I will have a video version on YouTube and one with only audio on the podcast platforms. I don't know much about podcast and I definitely don't have the proper equipment to start this. At the beginning, the sound or the flow of the show will not be so good. But hopefully, I will learn along the way.
