Ep 32: Feeling stuck in your career or like the world’s moving too fast for your creative spark to keep up?
Alyssa Aviles, Canva and ClickFunnels ambassador, creative director, and educator, gets raw about creative struggles, the AI boom, and what it really means to rebuild when life doesn’t go as planned.
From freelancing fails to designing for 7- to 9-figure entrepreneurs, Alyssa’s story is anything but linear. She opens up about the silent millennial midlife crisis: that moment when you realize you’ve checked all the boxes and still feel behind, exhausted, or completely lost.
Alyssa also dives deep on the fact that creativity isn’t frivolous, it's foundational. She also shares how faith, curiosity, and the right mentor helped her go from overwhelmed freelancer to working with Pedro Adao, Tony Robbins, and Damon John, without losing her creative soul.
If you've ever questioned your path, your pace, or your place in a world dominated by tech and timelines, this convo is for you.
