Lenny Terenzi: Quitting's For Winners

Welcome back, LedHeads, to another episode of the Pencil Pushers Podcast! Today I have the pleasure of sharing a recent chat with my good friend, Lenny Terenzi. Lenny, who many of you know as an illustrator, designer, musician, and single dad, joins us to discuss the crucial topic of mental health for Creatives. Since his last visit in 2019, a lot has changed for Lenny. He stepped down as president of the AIGA Triangle Chapter, closed his screen printing business 'Hey Monkey,' went through a divorce and more. We dive into his journey through these challenges, the importance of self-care and 'healthy quitting,' and how he has been rebuilding his life by reconnecting with his old passions, like music. This conversation offers a raw and honest look at balancing creativity, responsibility, and self-preservation. Tune in for an inspiring discussion that's sure to resonate with many of you.
