| 30 Jul 2021 | 01: Olivia Herrick's Creative Life | 01:00:55 | |
I'm so thrilled to share such a big and bright conversation with designer and author Olivia Herrick today. Olivia is a Minnesota-based graphic designer with 11 years of design experience, and she runs Olivia Herrick Design, a multidisciplinary design studio. She's a mama who also plays competitive golf, loves spending time in nature, a vegan, and a self-confessed chronic optimist.
Simplicity and ease in design is her main goal. Her Instagram feed is filled with her bright, punchy but deliciously simple style and design that is instantly recognisable and uplifting - there's at least 6 of Olivia's graphics scattered on my vision board and within journals.
I chose Olivia to be my first guest on This Creative Life, because her course was a catalyst for me in recognising that I had stopped prioritising my creativity a long time ago - and that I needed to essentially rebuild it from the ground up. This podcast is just one of the by-products of that rediscovery!
Enjoy!

We talk about the start of her creative journey in New Zealand to now, living and roadtripping in Canada, how she creates on her own terms, how staying true to her style and voice has impacted her biz and how a life lived in nature is her fuel for creativity.

Hey, and welcome to This Creative Life - conversations with creatives on creativity and how can cultivate, inspire and nourish our creative souls. We’re back for 2022, and I can’t think of a better soul to start the year off with than Dr Marion Piper.

We also explore the mind-blowing concept that it’s not about time, it’s about energy when it comes to prioritising creativity, the creative process and how we all manage to skip a step in some way, and she shares the most perfect advice for creating on your own terms.
