OK I know I get REALLY excited about our guests on this show, but OMGOOOOODNESS I have NEVER BEEN THIS STOKED BEFORE!!!
FRIENDS!!!!! WE HAVE COMEDIAN AND ILLUSTRATOR ABBI JACOBSON ON THE SHOW!!!
Other than the fact that I am just a HUGE fan of Abbi, I wanted to have her on the podcast because her creative career arc SO EMBODIES the Creative Career Path process from our show! The way her and Ilana Glazer turned a homemade web-series into the hit TV show Broad City on Comedy Central is A MASTER CLASS in making stuff happen!
We talk about:
- The Power of Pivots
- Abbi’s early “illustration hustle” tactic
- How the Web Series came about
- Finding Your Next Path
- AND SO MUCH MORE!!!
