How Confidence Built My Creative Career (Without Faking Anything!)
How Confidence Built My Creative Career (& It Wasn’t By Faking Anything!)
My creative career began over 12 years ago when the cafe manager asked who would be interested in updating the chalkboard menu in the dining room. In today’s episode, I share the beginning of my creative career, highlighting milestones when I used my confidence to take a risk, ask for more, and even pitch my services to complete strangers! Tune in to Episode 6 if you’re curious how I built my confidence, where confidence comes from, and why “faking it till you make it” is a bogus strategy.
We talk about:
- Arielle’s journey from a hopeful actress waiting tables to a full-time lettering artist in NYC
- What risks Arielle took at the beginning of her career that led to massive growth
- How you can learn from Arielle’s story to build confidence and take risks
- Developing evidence to teach your subconscious to seek proof that you are a confident creator
- Disproving the phrase “fake it till you make it”
- Action steps that will help you strengthen your confidence muscle
