398. What to Do When Your Family/Friends Don’t Fully Support Your Artistic Dreams

from Artist Academy · host Andrea Ehrhardt

In this episode of the Artist Academy podcast, I open up about something that so many artists struggle with: support systems (or the lack thereof). This episode explores what it’s like to grow a creative career without constant encouragement from those around you. There’s a reflection on the difference between blind support and honest concern, and how to stay focused when friends or family don’t fully “get” what you're trying to build. If you’ve ever felt unseen, second-guessed, or unsupported, this one’s for you. It’s all about trusting yourself, finding the right community, and creating for you, not for the applause.www.artistacademy.com
