#018: Atalin | Insecurities, Monetizing Your Passion, and Paranormal Activities

Hello friends!  Can't believe Jan 2021 is almost over. Anyway, I took a nice little week long break and I'm back!  In this episode, I'm glad to have Atalin as my stranger-turned-friend! She might've been a stranger... but boy did I feel like I was talking to another version of me.  We get into our insecurities, Lin's passion for digital art and how we don't always have to monetize it and... yup, paranormal activities.  if you haven't already, please SUBSCRIBE on Spotify / Apple / wherever you are listening to this.
