Today's guest is Debbie Millman. She is a designer and host of the DesignMatters podcast. You honestly don't need this introduction. It's Debbie Millman. I'll be honest, when you are interviewing a guest who is so great at interviewing other people, it gets the nerves going!

During this episode we talk about:

-how she did not grow up in a creative family or environment. 

-how she originally went to school for English and Literature. 

-the teacher(s) that gave her the confidence to explore her creativity. 

-the annual report cover that was really influential to her. 

-her decade of failure and the moment it all started to turn around. 

-the Star Wars project she was a part of that didn't go as planned despite the pre-meeting high five in the parking lot. 

Debbie is such a genuine person and doesn't hesitate to open up and share some of her story and creative journey with us. @debbiemillman
