How to keep showing up – even though we might not feel ready.

Alice Edy is an artist and graphic scribe based in Naarm / Melbourne. Her background in calligraphy and typography, combined with a fascination with storytelling, is at the heart of all Alice’s work. On the surface it seems that Alice has two very different creative careers; working in a fine arts space one day, and then helping businesses to visualise their strategies the next… This is not uncommon; more and more people are finding themselves juggling different creative disciplines simultaneously. But, even though this kind of diversification can be expansive and exciting, it can also sometimes feel like being an imposter in both worlds. Not “fully” anything. This month, Alice will be exploring the theme of “DARE” as a possible antidote to chronic Imposter Syndrome. Having freelanced her entire career, Alice shares some ideas on how we can approach our creative practice more playfully, how to ask for what we need, and how to keep showing up – even though we might not feel ready.
