Creativity does not happen in a vacuum. It happens in community. However, this is something that we often overlook. We focus all of our time thinking about how we can make better work and how we can grow our careers. I will admit. I'm guilty of this too.

The goal of this podcast, The Creative Hack, is to help creatives learn how we can run better businesses, be more profitable and be more creative. Each week, it is my goal to talk with different creatives and learn more about the work that they are involved with. I want to learn about the highs the lows and every in between.

Ultimately, I believe that the best things in life happen in community. My goal for this show is a resource for all creators to be better at their craft. 

I hope you enjoy this teaser episode. Welcome to The Creative Hack.
