In this episode, I sit down with award-winning illustrator and lettering artist Jess Goldsmith to talk about building a career that celebrates experimentation, authenticity, and community. Jess shares her journey from working with major brands to founding Women of Type, a global community for women and non-binary creatives, all while embracing the mantra that “you can be whoever you want and still be successful.” We dive into the power of storytelling in design, how to navigate trends without losing authenticity, and what it really means to be a creative in a constantly evolving industry.
Tune in as Jess and I discuss her belief that you don’t have to fit into one box as a designer, and explore how embracing different paths can fuel both personal and professional growth. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to break new ground in your creative journey, this episode is packed with insights and inspiration!
