I used to care about and chase the opportunity to produce cool/fun/funny work. But, as of the last couple years..it’s just more about stability, keeping working relationships happy, building finances, i.e. it’s just a job.

Definitely still feel genuinely defeated when truly awesome concepts get glossed over by a client who has no clue what they want.

Looked at Squarespace Experts but seems a bit intense for what I need. Google isn't giving me much.
