In this episode, I answer some common questions I’ve received lately about creativity, freelancing, dataviz process, and more. Let’s go!

  • What platforms would you join when on the look out for a network, freelance projects etc?
  • I want to transition into a dataviz job but not sure where to start?
  • What exactly do you mean by 'creativity' in the context of data and analytics? How can data people be creative?
  • How do you respond to negative feedback of your creative idea?
  • What do you do when you feel unmotivated?
  • How do you handle the feeling of not living up to a client's expectations? I want to be creative and do my best work, but it's a lot of pressure!
  • I feel like I'm stuck in my own bubble when it comes to being inspired. How do I branch out
  • What is a common mistake people make when brainstorming or ideating?
  • How do I know if my graphic is effective or if I should try to be more creative? I’m confused when to keep pushing or if it’s good enough.
