Burn the Ships, Change Your Environment, Be More Creative | J. Vladimir
About this episode
To do something outside of the box in your life and career, you are going to have to take risks (shocker right?). Although we say we want “x” with our lives, are we taking the necessary steps to get there?
Today, I had the pleasure of speaking with J. Vladimir, an innovative artist who blends the world of editorial fashion photography with modern pop art. He shares his story of “burning the boats” to become a full-time artist, and why he advocates for “betting on yourself”. We also dig into his creative process and why changing your environment and habits is a necessity for your creativity.
