Keeping Your Head Up and Handling It with Adé Hogue

Social media has trained us to compare our lives to others and try to "catch up" with others. In reality, we’re running our own race.

The path we’re on is our own. The highlights and successes come from the hard work we put in. The adversity we overcome propels us forward and allows us to grow.

In this race, you’ll be presented with opportunities, obstacles, and risk; they all require you to act in the moment, but that’s life, right? As Tupac said, “Keep your head up and handle it.”

Queue today’s guest: Chicago-based art director, designer & letterer, Adé Hogue.

Adé’s worked with brands like Under Armour, Nike, Mercedes-Benz, and The Obama Foundation (to name a few) in his short tenure of full-time freelancing. He’s a wizard when it comes to experimenting with different mediums like flowers, utilizing natural light in his photography, and utilizing his style and voice to make an impact.

Today, Adé and I talk about:

Transitioning into full-time freelance and the lows that come with the highs
Highlighting black lettering artists
Acting in the moment instead of living with regret
Bouncing back from adversity and finding the silver lining
Side projects, pizza, and running (because they’re all related, right?)

Whether you’re a runner or not, this episode with Adé will have ideas running through your head!
