Just like our talent roster; our community is full of real people with real stories - each unique, inspiring, and waiting to be told. This couldn't truer for the creative minds of the world, where the 'simple' movement of A to B, just isn't that simple.
Behind your favourite photograph, piece of clothing, or artwork, is a tapestry of culture and experience unlike any other. With Creative Paths, we step off the beaten track to explore the ups and downs of being a creative; dissecting the distinctive journeys that shape our passions to learn, share, and inspire.
...because we believe there is no "right way around"; sometimes, it's best to go left.

Peiman Raf and his co-founders launched Madhappy in 2017 and are on a mission to make the world a more optimistic place. Peiman and the rest of the team behind Madhappy strive to create an authentic voice for raising awareness and providing resources around mental health.
Those that engage with the brand are welcomed with an environment stocked full of mental health panels, meditations, and talks. Their bold and colorful designs not only offer aesthetic flair but also create and encourage mental health conversations. In addition, the brand holds large-scale events and product releases with the proceeds going to charity, and it runs a blog called The Local Optimist that offers a spectrum of mental health resources and carefully crafted content and experiences such as interviews and editorial content.
Born in Italy, Peiman moved to the U.S. at a young age. In 2016, he graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree. In this episode, he and Sam dig into the importance of shifting perspectives on mental health and what we can look forward to for the brand’s future. Peiman also talks about the contributions of the co-founders to the company, working with family and friends, the inspiration behind Madhappy, creating additional avenues for mental health, the brand’s audience growing into a community, and the launch of his mental health podcast.
