Customer Reviews
Valuable information
She has some very creative information. However it is hard to listen to unprofessional language and unnecessary belching moments. It’s hard on headphone listeners.
The content is good if you can get past the drama and stick to the business information. I agree the guests need to be more diverse and mix it up more.
Love it
Just getting into art/illustration podcasts and loving that this one doesn’t have any cringy testimonials in the actual podcast. Lots of marketing gems, stays on task w value. Really like that Dina emphasizes multiple income streams without such a large focus on commissions and freelance(thing that the artist cannot scale or leverage) - but more on other more scalable streams like print on demand, subscriptions, courses, etc. Good stuff.
Stealing from Black Creators!
The owner of the podcast stole and profited from several black creators! How are you about women empowerment when you constantly stole and traced our work! All information is currently on her instagram!
