Welcome to "Let's Start From The Beginning," where every creative journey begins with a spark. You know that moment when someone discovers their calling? Maybe it's a kid sketching in margins, a teenager coding at 2 AM, or an artist seeing the world differently. In each episode, I uncover the real story behind creative minds - the messy, beautiful journey of how they became who they are. We dig into late-night breakthroughs, game-changing failures, and tiny decisions that shifted everything. Because the most interesting part isn't where someone ended up, but how they got there.
