Confidence Is Earned | With Patrick Carter

What does it really take to build a successful creative business? Spoiler alert: Great design skills are only part of the equation.

This week, we're joined by Patrick Carter, founder and creative director of 63 Visual, to unpack the hard-earned lessons from nearly 17 years of running an independent design studio. From getting fired and getting ripped off to learning how to price confidently, recognize red flags, and build lasting client relationships, Patrick shares the experiences that shaped his approach to business.

We dig into why trusting your instincts matters, how taking action builds confidence, and why success isn't always about getting bigger. Sometimes it's about getting better, making smarter decisions, and building a creative career that supports the life you actually want.

Real stories, practical advice, and a refreshing reminder that confidence isn't something you're born with. It's something you earn.
