Shownotes Transcript

Dan and Ian love stories where creative people find success through entrepreneurship.

Truthfully, it's not something we have had a chance to talk about much on this podcast, but art and entrepreneurship don't have to be mutually exclusive. In fact, the skillsets can actually be complementary.

Today's guest has figured that out herself, as she went from working a 9-to-5 while living with her parents to traveling the world on her own terms.

Cat Coquilette is an artist and illustrator who has made a career licensing her artwork and designs through companies like Target, Urban Outfitters, and Bed Bath & Beyond.

On today's podcast, Cat joins us to share how she navigated the journey from her childhood bedroom to successful solopreneurship, without sacrificing her creative fulfillment along the way.
