Welcome to the 6th episode of Bye Bye Boss! 🥂 Today, I met Calvin, a French photographer who said Bye Bye Boss about a year ago. Since then, he has started a community of photographer in the city that gathers passionate people to talk about photography. He then continued by organizing workshops and opened his own agency, while also putting a foot in the clothing industry to bring photography images of his work into clothing design. He does a lot - that's what we talk in this episode! 📍 To find Calvin online: https://calvinonfilm.com/ His IG: @calvinonfilm (https://www.instagram.com/calvinonfilm/) The community: @08mm______ (https://www.instagram.com/08mm______/) The clothing brand: @inspectral (https://www.instagram.com/inspectral/) The agency: @cerocho.agency (https://www.instagram.com/cerocho.agency/) 🎙️ Want to connect or be a guest on the podcast?

Welcome to the fifth episode of Bye Bye Boss! Today, I talk with Evgeniya who I met through Jadal and Debora (my guests from the 3rd episode in this podcast). We discuss how her time in Barcelona helped her re-think what she wanted to do in her life, and how this drove her to go back to studying. From her childhood memories to the joy of selling her own pieces, you will see that it's never too late to ask yourself what would really make sense to do in your life. 💬 We also talk about: Anathema (https://www.instagram.com/anathema_clothing/) The Palo market (https://www.instagram.com/palomarketfest/) Reimagine textile (https://reimaginetextile.com/es/) Barcelona Activa (https://www.barcelonactiva.cat/) 📍 To find Evgeniya online: https://www.instagram.com/euparshutova/ https://eparshutova.com/ ---- 🎙️ Want to connect or be a guest on the podcast?

Welcome to the fourth episode of Bye Bye Boss! Today, I’m chatting with Constanza, whom I met through Carola from Choco Chakra (featured in the very first episode of this podcast!). I visited Constanza in Sitges, where we talked for a while about her business and creative journey. She originally studied product design, but explored various materials and artistic techniques during her studies. It was silver that truly stood out to her - it felt special, and that’s what drew her into jewelry. Encouraged by a teacher and driven by her own personality, she began developing her own designs and eventually launched her brand. I hope you enjoy our conversation and the authenticity that Constanza brings to our chat and her brand, Miss Metalsmith. 🎙️ We also talk about: - her studies in product design and how she moved to do jewelry - the challenges to sell at markets - how to price your product - the reason that keeps her going 💬 We also mentioned: Carola from Choco Chakra (https://www.instagram.com/choco.chakra), who is on the episode 01 of this podcast! -------------------- To find Constanza online: https://www.instagram.com/miss_metalsmith/ https://missmetalsmithjoyas.company.site/ --------------------- 🎙️ Want to connect or be a guest on the podcast?

Welcome to the third episode of Bye Bye Boss! Today, I’m chatting with Jadal and Debora whom I met about a year ago in the Brunch Festival in Barcelona.

Welcome to the second episode of Bye Bye Boss! Today, I’m chatting with Pil, a Danish artist I met at the Christmas Festivalet market in Barcelona.

We talked about the fears, the excitement, and the unexpected challenges of making such a big leap. If you’ve ever dreamed of leaving the corporate world behind, you’ll definitely relate to this one. 🎙️ Want to connect or be a guest on the podcast?

🎙️ Rewind to 2020... I had a vision: to start a podcast where I’d sit down with artists and creative entrepreneurs, diving into their mindset, their journey, and what it really takes to leave the 9-to-5 behind. But just as I was getting started, well… you know what happened. Two episodes in, and the world hit pause. Fast-forward five years, and I’m back—this time for real. The mission? Still the same. Talking to artists who are making a living from their craft, turning creativity into a career, and navigating the wild world of self-employment. Hosted on Ausha.
