This story is a fantasy. We’ve got witches and vampires and aliens and hatchlings abound. Even some torture devices, to add to the medieval flavor. And if you haven’t caught on already, I’m talking about parenthood.

Today, we dive deep into my biggest transition yet: motherhood. More specifically, shifting into motherhood while also working as a career artist in the animation field. Julia Pott joins the conversation with her own unique perspective.

If an animator animates, but they don’t post it online, did they even.. animate? In this episode, we explore the connection between my career and being chronically online. What would happen if I just.. stopped? I’ll highlight the work and experiences of “industry ghosts” who are ultra talented but have no online presence. Hear from Will Johnson + Amanda Godreau.

Close your eyes. Imagine you’re standing in a long, narrow hallway. There are doors on either side of you that continue down the length of the space. It’s quiet, but the air sizzles with suspense. What’s behind each door? Where will each path take you?

Welcome to the very first episode of Ghost Frame, where I introduce my personal story of career crisis, motherhood & the framework for each episode to come. I highlight conversations with people who made big & unexpected career moves after already being established in their industry. Will I solve my career crisis yet? Probs not.
