In part 1 of the graduate special I’m joined by three awesome digital design grads — Josh, Yasmin, and Vince — for a conversation that’s equal parts honest, hilarious, and a proper inside look at life after graduating.

All three made the leap back into education in their late twenties, only to discover a community that felt instantly like home. 

Vince spills on his surprising pivot from UX/UI to filmmaking — all thanks to a super supportive supervisor — while Yasmin chats through the reality of freelancing alongside part-time work and what it actually takes to make that balance work. 👏

We dive into the not-so-glam side of life after graduation too: the job hunt grind, the resilience it demands, and why networking is basically your new best mate. Through plenty of laughs and totally relatable moments, this episode pulls back the curtain on what stepping into the creative world really looks like. 🙌

Whether you’re knee-deep in design studies or already working in the field, expect to walk away feeling seen, inspired, and a little more confident in your own unique creative journey!
