Traci L. Turner
I don\u2019t know about you, but that whole \u201cthey sleep we grind\u201d mentality of working is not the move. There can be a lot of external pressure to constantly push yourself to the limit with your work, but there\u2019s also payoffs from doing work at a pace that makes sense to you. That\u2019s what drew me to talk with this week\u2019s guest, Traci L. Turner.\n\nWe started our conversation on building creative momentum after big life changes, and she talked about her new focus on portraiture as well as her current artistic process (including doing a podcast). She also spoke on growing up in DC, attending college, and the challenge of balancing her art with a 9-to-5 job in her early career. Traci also shared some of her goals for this next chapter of her journey as an artist. It can be easy to get caught up with trying to compare yourself to what others are doing, but take Traci\u2019s advice: just feel comfortable with doing what you want to do!
