This week we go back to the archives, I interviewed Nathan first back in 2013 and the latest time was after he moved more to an illustration focus back in 2016. It will be great to catch up with Nathan this week and see where his business has been and where it is now.

On this entrepreneurial journey there are a LOT of unknowns. We dive deep into this and what Nathan has held onto in these uncertain times. This episode will be centered around his faith and where his focus on Jesus in his life takes his business.

The Group Program:
At Creatives Ignite, we know that you want to be a focused, confident entrepreneur with clear direction. In order to do that, you need to get out of your head and learn from other creative entrepreneurs. The problem is you're a solopreneur with limited knowledge and experience on what your next steps need to be which makes you feel uncertain and alone.

I believe every entrepreneur should be supported, challenged, and encouraged as they grow their business. I understand how overwhelming and demanding building a creative business can be because I have been growing my business for over 20 years.

Find out more. So you can stop being stuck and doubting your value and your decisions and instead start seeing growth in your mindset and in your business.

Our guest this week is my good friend Dimi Lazarou. He is always pioneering new techniques and new technologies. He has been using AI (Artificial Intelligence) for years. He started making images before anyone else I knew was doing it. He has also figured out ways to use text and visual based AI to get the results he desires.

This might scare you. As I write this there is a writers strike happening in America in the entertainment industry. Some of the writer's demands have to do with AI and how it is used in the industry.

There are a lot of ways AI will be useful to us. There are some jobs that AI will render obsolete. As we continue to advance do you find yourself embracing new technologies or resisting?

I hope it gives you a new perspective and helps you to understand more where you stand on the issue.

We are continuing with the Where are They Now series. I expect I might get a little teary because my mom is not here for the first time in years, but I am going to do my best this week. I am getting to interview one of my favorite guests from the years. I have interviewed Scott Biersack, quite a few times over the 10 years of the podcast.

Here are a few things I love about Scott:
1. He is willing to try new things
2. He loves learning
3. He is empathetic and hasn't had it easy, and isn't afraid to tell those hard stories
4. He is inspiring, he is willing to get dirty, and commit to practicing his craft on a weekly basis.

There are many other things and he has had lots of learning and changes since we last spoke in 2018. I hope you will join me for this episode.

We are continuing with the Where are They Now series. There is no doubt my guest this week was top on my list. Amarilys Henderson is probably my favorite Skillshare teacher. She is an author, an illustrator, an artist who sells her items in her shop on her site, but also licenses her work, she has a community, and has teaches classes on her own platform. She has had some big shifts in her teaching and her art licensing that we'll talk about.

Amarilys is inspiring to me for many reasons, here are five:
1. Her faith is at the center of her work.
2. She is always trying something new.
3. She has multiple income streams.
4. She doesn't give up. She is exploring and experimenting.
5. She shares what she knows, freely and is super easy to talk to and relate to.

Have you wanted to create work that is unique to you and have it put on home goods, stationery, cards, and many other applications? Amarilys has had a lot happen since 2017 when we last spoke. (She also was a speaker at Camp 2021).

I have a lot of questions and you can read the show notes here, https://creativesignite.com/amarilys-henderson-where-are-they-now/

Episode 433 LIVE on SATURDAY, February 25, 2023 at 7:30 pm GMT / 2:30 pm ET / 11:30 am PT / 9:30 am in Hawaii

Jody Collins is a community builder, designer, and believes in mentoring. I met Jody at an AIGA leadership retreat quite a few years ago. He is funny, engaging, passionate, and talented. Jody is a natural great leader, because he is always lifting others, and checking on them to make sure everyone is on the path.

Jody is also a talented illustrator and podcaster. He is interested in many things including printmaking. Our conversation will dive into the mentors who made a difference in his life and why he is so passionate about helping others.

LOVE ON DESIGNERS
Week 4 is CONNECT

This week I want you to reach out to someone you don’t know and tell them how their work / life has inspired you.

Some ideas you can do are:
Create a social media post and tag them (and us) telling them how they have inspired or helped you.

Reach out to a mentor or teacher (recent or past teacher) and let them know how much they have meant to you.
