Miriam Schulman, Making a Living off Your Creativity

Miriam Schulman is the author of "Artpreneur," a book about making a living off our creativity. After witnessing 9/11, she left a lucrative hedge fund job to focus full-time on her art. Since then, her story and art have been featured in major publications including Forbes, The New York Times, What Women Create, Art of Man, Professional Artist magazine, and Art Journaling magazine. Her artwork has also been featured on NBC's "Parenthood" and the Amazon series "Hunters" with Al Pacino.  We talk about getting past the starving artist mindset, pricing our art, limiting beliefs that inhibit artists, the value of taking risks, building confidence, beating procrastination, cultivating creativity, the value of email marketing over social media, embracing your weirdness, why we shouldn't let AI write for us, failure and having haters, advice for self-published authors, the future of marketing, and more.
