PP 099: Owning Your Story & Style with Kyle Letendre of @HeyKyle
Working Through Your Path and Passions
Sometimes, it takes a few attempts to figure out which passion path you should be following in life. You may have multiple interests, but not all of them point toward a fruitful future.
Personally, I bounced around between dreams of being a football coach, personal trainer, tattoo artist, clothing brand owner, and logo designer. I had to spend a little time in each one of these dreams until I found the path in which I truly wanted to dedicate my time.
Owning Your Story and Style with Kyle Letendre
Queue today’s guest, Kyle Letendre aka @HeyKyle, a groovy magician who casts spellbinding expressive lettering and illustrations for some of the biggest kids on the block like Instagram, Jack White, and McDonald's.
In addition, he gives talks, teaches workshops, and slangs some pretty beautiful merch...basically, I’m saying he does it all and does it extremely well.
Today, Kyle and chop it up over tantalizing topics such as:
The weird and winding road to lettering and illustration
The risky leap to full-time freelance
Owning your story and what makes you you
How his name doesn’t sound like it's spelled and obviously his favorite pizza
