34. The Monday Break(Through) 022 - Feel the Fear. Start Anyway.
In this unscripted Monday Break(Through), I finally take a leap I’ve avoided since the start of this podcast—recording solo without a script. It’s raw, imperfect, and real.I talk about pushing through fear, showing up even when you’re unsure, and the underestimated power of side projects. From recording in a noisy apartment to learning new skills outside of font design, this episode is a love letter to doing the thing—even when it’s scary.Plus, I share a major lesson from Elliot Jay Stocks about why side projects matter more than we think, and how they can actually help us avoid burnout, spark new ideas, and reignite passion for our main work.If you’ve been waiting for a sign to start something on the side—this is it. Let’s talk fear, creativity, and why the messy beginning is often the most powerful part.
