Colour Me Happy PODCAST  Have you ever wanted to take your creative passion to a full time career? In this Colour Me Happy podcast episode with local photographer Brooke M. Harrison, we dive into her inspiring journey of transitioning from full-time work to pursuing her photography business full-time. Brooke shares the highs and lows, and how she managed to pivot toward a creative career while balancing her day job.

We also reference Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert, where she talks about the courage needed to embrace creativity. Gilbert explains that creativity and work can coexist, but it takes bravery to unearth the treasures within, despite fear and uncertainty.

Tune in to hear more about Brooke’s two essential tips for sustaining your passion before taking that leap to full-time:

1. Build gradually while maintaining stability: Keep your current job as you develop your creative business.
2. Consistency and patience: Cultivate your craft steadily, and when it's ready, transitioning to full-time will feel more natural and sustainable.
