I have been listening to Andy for a couple of months now and of all of the creative podcasts I listen to, he is definitely one of my favorite. Fun, energetic, and absolutely real. His story and his step by step tips/strategies are super valuable no matter where you are in your creative career!

Do yourself a favour... Listen to this podcast.

Andy is not only encouraging, honest, fun and thoughtful but incredibly generous in sharing from the wellspring of his own personal professional creative career experiences. I love that he shares about being a creative that has ADHD, as well.

Deep and light at the same time

I'm usually not the type of person into pep talks and motivation speeches, but Andy has a way to do it that just feels like a conversation. Sometimes the subjects are pretty deep, but it's always approched in a kind and casual way. I often catch myself smiling or laughing while listening, which is a good thing since I often listen to the podcast when I'm on a bad mood. Some of Andy's advice can work outside of creative work, which is a bonus. Creative Pep Talk was the very first podcast I chose to try to get into the thing, and I don't regret it at all!

A necessary resource for creatives!

This podcast is literally what I’ve wanted for YEARS. I was thrilled to have discovered it! Andy has a talent for making really complicated concepts understandable and breaking them down into practical, actionable steps. He’s funny, relatable, and super smart. You need this podcast!

💘

I listened to the first Creative Career Path episode the other week and it has already helped me so much. I was floored at how many things Andy said that were thoughts I had or didn't even know I was having. Every episode surprises me with something I have experienced or felt. I have gone to a few talks, listened to podcasts, followed YouTube channels and have been inspired but also massively intimidated. I think there are a lot of creatives who give advice who might be doing it to add some clout but Andy really does care about helping people find their path; it is literally pouring out of him in these episodes! If your looking to start your creative journey with a sincere Jedi Gandalf wizard man who likes pizza, this is your podcast. Also, the choons are pretty dace ✨

My creative guru!

I’ve recently discovered creative pep talk and I can’t say enough good things about it. Andy’s personality is quirky, fun, and upbeat. His advice is consistent and always inspiring. I’m a practical creative person and I think one of the best parts of this podcast is that it’s produced with a practical artist in mind, regardless of level and ability.

A must for ALL creatives

I’m obsessed with this podcast. It is equally as hilarious as it is valuable. If you’re a creative of any kind, this show is a MUST listen. I’m so impressed by Andy’s ability to breakdown deep topics related to the creative journey AND offer fresh and inspiring insight on those topics (and be so funny and colorful at the same time). Every episode seems to be the exact thing I needed to hear. I can’t say enough good things about it! Thank you for doing this Andy!

Only love!

Creative Pep Talk has helped me so much. I tell all my creative friends about it so I felt I should try to convince ~you~!! It helps you feel not alone. It makes you laugh. It makes you cry. It HELPS!! Don’t sleep on the pure magic Andy creates for us each week. We are so lucky to have him. He’s kinda like the cool art teacher version of Tony Robins.

Creative Pie with Extra Awesomesauce!

I have recently been binge-listening to the CPT podcasts and they have BLOWN MY MIND! I can’t even express how meaningful Andy's talks have been to me. I think the thing(s) that have resonated with me the most was the fact that you speak about so many of the same topics/struggles that have been rattling around in my headspace and communicate them in such a meaningful, humorous and well-articulated way. And, that there are others that share my point-of view and struggle with similar creative issues. Thank you for having the balls to speak out and share your point of view—I admire your tenacity!

AWESOME!

Andy is AWESOME! Real advice, real talk and real tips, tricks, and motivation! I love that everything that is discussed is realistic and not a "follow my formula and you'll be "uber-tuber famous overnight" because thats all BS. Andy is funny, fun to listen to and gets me motivated to keep going in this extremely hard business! :)!!

Doing any kind of creative work means coming up against uncertainty and self doubt. I find this podcast is simply brilliant for guidance and advice.

Inspiring and helpfull

I just listened to the last episode, my first, episode 176, and it was so good! Also very helpfull. The tip to not go for the nr. 1 in the market, but a top 10 somewhere in the middle. Why didn't I come up with that? :-D Thanks Andy! I will listen to more of your podcast during preparing my files.

Look for the series-es

'The Creative Career Path Series' episodes are a true gift to creatives. These are the episodes I will be sharing (sweetly pushing) with the other freelancers in my family and network. Thank you Andy

Finally got some career path clarity!

This podcast is entering my life at the perfect time. Especially with the latest series, I’m finding so much clarity which is turning into actions that feel systematic in a good way. The best part is that I can see how all this advice will continue to be relevant for my creative career over the course of a couple of decades. Thanks, Andy!

Designer

I wish I had this podcast when I was just out of college (or before!) trying to figure out how to make a creative path and make a living. I got all kinds of bad advice, boht of the safe kind "(just work in a bank"!) to the follow-your-passion-to-the-poor-house-kind ("just starve until you make it"). Andy is so fun, funny, and thoughtful and his advice is helpful every week. I think the new Creative Path Series he's just wrapped up is the culmination of all his ideas and groundbreaking way to approach getting the right creative work. I look forward to putting into action this month. Cheers Dr. Pizza!

The Gandalf of creatives

Andy is like the Gandalf of the creative community, leading us safely through Mordor. Or like Impa serving as our bodyguard and offering guidance, throwing us the Ocarina of Time aka the tools that will help us unlocking the next part of our quest. Thank you Andy for all the amazing and valuable content.

Wowza! This podcast gets you into ACTION

This podcast is absolutely incredible. If you are in the creative field in ANY degree you need to listen to Andy. He is brilliant and fun and funny and he soooooo wants you to live your creative dreams. Listening to this podcast will get you out of your head and into real world action. I LOVE the "illustrations" he uses; creating metaphors from hero's journey and kid's books and movies. Thank you thank you thank you Dr. Pizza! I literally cannot thank you enough. I feel as though a fog has lifted.
