Master on None but Jill of All Trades

How many times in life have you felt that internal urge to pursue something yet you're hesitant because it differs from what you currently do?

Sometimes it's okay to be a jack or jill of all trades instead of a master of one.

Each one of us is a passion weaver and each passion thread we weave has a similar underlying structure to it all?

Maybe it's just our job to connect the dots and see how everything aligns together?

This is a deep concept but it makes so much sense if you think about it.

Creativity is a Muscle, Exercise it Every day

This week I want to present to you Dominique Falla, HBIC of the Typism Global Lettering Community. It has blossomed into a massive Instagram account, a conference, a book and an online summit which you’ll hear more about in the show.

She’s also a Passion Weaver, Speaker, Author, Typographer and has completed tactile string typography commissions for brands like Google, Bing, Penguin, Random House and Woolworths, among others.

She will have a new book called Creative Fitness coming out in 2018.

Dominique is a straight up rock star and some of the things we cover in today's episode are:

  • Standing out with quality and doing something different

  • Weaving together multiple passions

  • Figuring out life's puzzle and the guiding force within you

  • Not pressuring yourself to make your side hustle your main hustle

  • Creativity is a muscle, exercise it every day

  • Following your fun meter

This is just the tip...of the iceberg that is of what we talk about in this episode.

I have no doubt you're going to want to take on the world after listening to this one.

The World of Typism

Typism originated from the idea that Dominique went to a conference to see Seb Lester. She found the other speakers all boring and wondered what it'd be like to host a conference of 7-8 Seb Lesters?

Behold the Typism conference which started in 2013. It followed an every other year fashion following in 2015 and 2017.

After speaking and teaching a workshop at Creative South in 2017, she decided she wanted to go all out and make Typism an annual event.

Each Typism accompanies a book that typically is based on worldwide artists submissions. They are then put through the ringer of judges which leads to a curated book full of quality lettering and calligraphy.

Typism 2018 will be held in August at the Gold Coast. You can get your tickets here.

Typism Summit is now available and you can get immediate access to the library of videos for $97.
