Finding Your Voice Early in Your Career: Meghan Butterfield

Finding your voice early in your career is harder than people admit, and today, Meghan Butterfield gets real about what it actually takes. Meghan is officially my graphic designer at Fjällräven, but in reality, she operates more like an art director: thoughtful, sharp, and unafraid to trust her instincts. In this conversation, she shares how she stumbled into advertising, the bold school project that accidentally landed her a job, what new business taught her about speed and pressure, and why authenticity matters more than polish on TikTok and in your career. We also talk about developing confidence when you’re new, how unexpected past jobs shape the skills you use today, finding mentors you actually trust, and why speaking up early matters more than you think. Whether you're just starting out or you have been in the game for a while, Meghan’s story is a reminder that your perspective matters and your voice deserves to be heard.
