Episode 0042 - Rachel

The guest on episode 42 of Feel Free to Deviate is Rachel Carey. She’s an artist. I’ll let her fill you in on what that means, but it’s fairly important to note that she has a “regular” job doing financial stuff, because the bills aren’t going to pay themselves. It’s a fun and lively episode, and it is my observation that her combined experiences have brought her a pleasing and tasteful level of self-awareness, and I’m glad she shared it here and also in her art. We could all benefit from having a deeper understanding of why we do some of the things we do. I know I could. Topics include:Personal identity and becoming what you do for a living.Who you think you are vs. who the job market thinks you are.The cycle of borrowing money for school so you can get a good job to pay off the money that you borrowed for school.Maintaining the proper balance of art and traditional employment.Master’s degrees, the MFA in particular.“What kind of art do you do?”FilmEconomicsArt in generalSo much more!For more Rachel, visit https://rachelcarey.hotglue.me/ and https://vimeo.com/charlesrenard.Feel Free to Deviate is the podcast about people, their careers, and their relationships with success.
