Design Life is a podcast about design and side projects for motivated creators. It was born after your hosts, two serial side project addicts, saw a gap in the podcast market for a conversational show about design and the issues young creatives face, that was hosted by two females.
This show aims to tackle the big issues designers face like getting paid, overcoming a creative block or managing time, to name a few. We want to open up discussion about things we wish we heard people talk about when we were studying, and we want to chat to you about the joys and the frustrations of working in the tech industry by day, and on our passion projects in the rest of our waking hours. We hope that by doing so, Design Life will give you a dose of motivation or inspiration when you need it.

Customer Reviews
Relatable, motivating and inspiring!
Design Life is great for anyone who is fairly new to the design industry or even if they feel like they are. As they mentioned in one of their episodes, they don’t quite feel like they are “established designers” with years of experience, so they are learning as they go, which in turn, we as listeners learn with them. I admire both Charli and Femke for their dedication and passion for all things design. If you’re also looking for a little inspiration, this is also a good podcast to listen to, as both designers have many projects on the go and they offer tips to stay on top of things. It’s an easy listen, and the perfect motivating way you could start off your week every Monday!
