I’ve been there brother! Find creative ways to release your visions or pain. Lots of story telling can be done through pain.

🙏🏼 thanks!
I know I gotta do some personal projects at least, but really, I feel lost and don’t know where to start.

Whenever I go for interviews, they wanna see what I’ve done, but I feel so shitty that I really don’t have anything I feel proud of.

Leave and find a better place, even if you have to take a few steps back to take 50 steps forward. It’s frustrating now and chances are it will get more frustrating leaving and starting over somewhere with bigger potential but you’ll thank yourself. Been there.

I need a rescue mission for myself..

Happens to most people I know. It’s a journey. Hope you find a gig that you find fulfilling. It’s out there.

I’ve been there for the last year too. Just channeling all the energy towards job searching and work life balance. Something will come for us 👌🏽😄
