REASONS YOU MIGHT NEED A DESIGN COACH
YOU ARE IN A DESIGN RUT !
def: An uninspired routine or pattern of behavior that one continues unthinkingly or because change is difficult.
YOU FEEL STUCK IN A DEAD END POSITION
Like a mouse in a maze or hamster in a wheel,
you can't figure a way out.
YOU ARE JUST TRYING TO PAY THE DUES
OF 2-5 YEARS EXPERIENCE
FOR THE JOB YOU REALLY WANT!
But, your portfolio doesn't reflect your talents
or you have an NDA and nothing to show for all that hard work.
YOU SUBMIT MANY APPLICATIONS,
BUT NO ONE IS CALLING
And you can't figure out why.
YOU'VE REALIZED YOU WANT TO TAKE A DIFFERENT CREATIVE PATH but your portfolio is stuck in the past.
