The Power of the Personal Project

I have been a long-time proponent of pursuing personal work. There’s no better place to create a playground of ideas, explore curiosities, and give yourself permission to fail.

In this episode, we take a little dive into the power of personal projects for growth and opportunities, including:

  • Building a portfolio that reflects the work you want to be hired to do
  • Growth, learning, and creative breakthroughs
  • Growing a community
  • Using your commercial work to enable more personal projects

Enjoy!
