How to develop a creative career
Show notes
What does it mean to build a creative life — especially when the rules keep changing?
In this episode, Josh and Yancey reflect on the nonlinear paths of creative careers, from publishing forgotten essays that suddenly go viral to jumping formats, industries, and identities. We talk about true norths, timestamping your work, outsider paths, and the strange long game where your weirdest traits become your biggest strengths.
This is an episode about navigating the shifting terrain of creative work — and what it really takes to find your way.
