About Design Life
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.

[…] We're going to be doing a week. I think we talked in the past about the fact that we did like a hackathon type week where everyone was creating a project we called it create week. That's right. This time we're doing what we're calling accelerate week where instead of like hacking away on a new idea or something you've been wanting to try. It's like let's try to use this time together to make big progress on our actual Q1 plans. So there's a bunch of projects planned for kicking off, taking action on some of those things we're already planning on doing in the quarter, but just doing it together in person to have more fun throughout the process.
