Episode notes

"I think there's a nice correlation to this field. We're not better than anyone, it's just that we've put a lot of work in and to build experience," she says. "The first superhero I felt really encouraged by to pursue design was Jessica Heesh." She adds: "My work is really influenced by the people and things around me"

Femke encourages us to take pride in our process by being willing to show our crappy work. She shows us how every small step can lead to something big. She teaches us how we can achieve anything in life, if we’re willing to take action. She also challenges us to wake up early to get the stuff done that we “never have time for”.
