Description
This podcast is designed to help creative individuals like you explore different ideas on how to build a life, career, or business around your purpose and passion. Hosted by Arriane Serafico. // Because designing a meaningful life doesn’t come with an easy-to-follow, one-size-fits-all roadmap. The key, I believe, is to approach it as a creative process in itself. And no matter where you are right now in that process — whether it’s the beginning, middle, or you’re feeling completely lost — this podcast is for you. (Just a tiny disclaimer: This podcast has heavy undertones of design thinking, entrepreneurship, human-centered design, and unapologetic feminism.)
