"I don't share my work because I fear failure" - With Jack Chitty
In this episode, I’m joined by Jack Chitty, brand designer and founder of Chittco to talk all about his experience with pursuing a creative career even when you’re scared to. We talk about Jack’s life changing medical emergency that pushed him to go for what he really wants in life.
The Anonymous Creative Confession® we're discussing: “I've tried to start a design and illustration page at two different stages but I have an immense fear of failure. So I don't share my work and don't create work for me anymore. I fear people knowing me seeing me fail. I fear failing myself. I fear people judging me.“
CONTENT WARNING: This episode discusses Jack’s first-hand experience with a brain aneurysm including symptoms and the experience along with brain surgery and recovery which some listeners might find distressing. Please take care when listening or skip this episode if these topics are difficult for you.
