Quotes

“I truly believe that creative is just a different thing we make it out to be. That subjectiveness, that way of interpretation, a way to see a story and go through something is creativity to me.” - Host Dave Swillum

“I feel like a lot of times people feel like you should be charging high prices for what you do, not that you shouldn’t charge money but I definitely used that first year to see what’s it like to do business with people on instagram and Tik Tok, and all over the place to get a feel for it.” - Skye Marinda

“Getting started is the hardest hurdle to get past.” - Skye Marinda
