Yassss!
I found this podcast in my first year of creative self employment. It helps me so much when I feel stuck or unsure of what to do next. Put some pep in your life people! You won’t regret it.
Pizza Fan
Love me some AJ Pizza! Always bringing the pizzazz and the jazz in whatever he is speaking about, makes all his messages easy to understand and relatable to all listeners!
I have been recommending this podcast to every creative person I come across!

17 Ways to tap into your Creative Joy
Thank you Andy so much for all the pepperoni you pack into your podcasts every week - I can't wait for Wednesdays to rock around in NZ and when I see the little Creative Peptalk episode pop up on my phone - I literally light up and can't wait to find a window in my day to sit down and soak it all in. You have so many fantastic ideas and such an energetic and entertaining way of delivering these - I smile and laugh out loud occasionally on my walks with my dog with my earbuds in and can't wait to get back to my desk to do something creative! Keep it up man - love your work!
