Uh, just the best.
Creative Pep talk is so amazing, I've been working as an illustrator for a short while and it's really fantastic to have this lovely podcast to snap on when I'm feeling stuck or need fresh ideas and inspiration. I recommend it to all of my friends and it's just so nice to hear someone diving into the financial/business realities AND inner workings/metaphysical values of art and illustration.

Freelancers & small biz owner
I love this podcast- it speaks exactly to the niche that is creative design based business. As a freelance graphic designer and a stationery business owner, this podcast TRULY is a pep talk!
I listened to a ton of podcasts and this is the best for creative business advice. It’s nice to hear the struggles and feel like “I’m not alone” when it comes to the struggling artist career ladder. I love when people are real and down to earth. I don’t like podcasts that sugar coat the story- and Andy doesn’t do that at all- which I love!

Creative juices Flowing
I just listened to How to Grow your audience and I feel like I’m ready to hit the ground running. Andy equipped me me with the tools and questions that I need to ask myself in order to continue growing my audience for my podcast or my future audience as a creator. I can’t wait to listen to the next episode.

Cringeworthy Awesomeness
It's true - there are cringeworthy moments when the show host, *HiAndy* display's of geekiness are almost too much, but then you know he's laughing at himself too, and it's all ok because it's very very authentic. Andy is fantastic as creating metaphors, visualization and stories to get his points across that really make you understand and remember. Been a long time fan and continue to download - keep it up Mr Pizza!

Daily Pep Talk
The creative pep talk is always on when I am doing my work.
Every Podcast is a constant pep talk, something we all need as creatives. I like interviews the most. This podcast was recommended by my friend and I want to do the same here.
Lisen, enjoy, work hard and stay pep up with this podcast.

Amazing actionable creative insights!
The host is hilarious and really inspiring! It’s a super fun podcast and it also helps you take consistent action in your life, so it’s pretty perfect. He’s SUPER jazzed and it can feel a little much at the beginning but it will quickly become your favorite part about it.
This is a great podcast for anyone wanting to do great creative work, and be paid for it, whether or not you’re in the arts.

I wish I could be Andy’s bud
Firstly, Andy’s Mission is a noble one. You can tell this podcast was born from a sincere and burning desire to help people who are going where he’s been. What’s amazing is it is as unique and refreshing in execution as it is in concept; each time I listen I feel he has said the exact thing to keep me motivated and moving forward as a creative professional.
Next- He does an impressive job generalizing in a way that makes his pep talks apply to all kinds of pepperonis. (what is the plural of pepperoni btw?)
Lastly: I’m not sure if it has something to do with being the same age as Andy and therefore sharing the same childhood zeitgeist, but I could listen to him talk about anything. All day. His humor and unedited stream of consciousness are so enjoyable. I regularly lol while listening.
And another thing! ☝🏼
I’m so stoked for his blossoming speaking career. Andy, please make sure your world tour stops in San Diego !
XO,
Bree

Andy is THE MAN!
I have been listening to Andy for a couple of months now and of all of the creative podcasts I listen to, he is definitely one of my favorite. Fun, energetic, and absolutely real. His story and his step by step tips/strategies are super valuable no matter where you are in your creative career!

Do yourself a favour... Listen to this podcast.
Andy is not only encouraging, honest, fun and thoughtful but incredibly generous in sharing from the wellspring of his own personal professional creative career experiences. I love that he shares about being a creative that has ADHD, as well.

Deep and light at the same time
I'm usually not the type of person into pep talks and motivation speeches, but Andy has a way to do it that just feels like a conversation. Sometimes the subjects are pretty deep, but it's always approched in a kind and casual way. I often catch myself smiling or laughing while listening, which is a good thing since I often listen to the podcast when I'm on a bad mood.
Some of Andy's advice can work outside of creative work, which is a bonus.
Creative Pep Talk was the very first podcast I chose to try to get into the thing, and I don't regret it at all!

A necessary resource for creatives!
This podcast is literally what I’ve wanted for YEARS. I was thrilled to have discovered it! Andy has a talent for making really complicated concepts understandable and breaking them down into practical, actionable steps. He’s funny, relatable, and super smart. You need this podcast!

💘
I listened to the first Creative Career Path episode the other week and it has already helped me so much.
I was floored at how many things Andy said that were thoughts I had or didn't even know I was having. Every episode surprises me with something I have experienced or felt.
I have gone to a few talks, listened to podcasts, followed YouTube channels and have been inspired but also massively intimidated. I think there are a lot of creatives who give advice who might be doing it to add some clout but Andy really does care about helping people find their path; it is literally pouring out of him in these episodes!
If your looking to start your creative journey with a sincere Jedi Gandalf wizard man who likes pizza, this is your podcast.
Also, the choons are pretty dace ✨
