Blog Excerpt: “Whatever project Johnny decides to take on, whether it be designing a website or illustrating for a brand, he has to feel connected to the work. I can understand from a creative perspective if you’re not connected to what you’re working on, it will either take forever to complete or not be the highest quality you’re capable of (or even both). That’s why Melissa, Johnny, and I decided he was the perfect fit for designing our book; he had a deep connection with it from the start, and we knew he understood the message we wanted to share with the world.”

Ways to Engage: What are some self-care practices that recharge you or help you get ready for the day? What are some self-care practices you wish you made more time for? Experiment with a few practices or even some new ones Johnny described and take notes on how they affect your body and mind. There isn’t a universal answer to self-care practices so trying out new things can help prepare you for days when you need to try something different.
