Episode notes

In this inspiring interview, Wixx Mangutha, a talented visual storyteller and founder of Wixx Studios - a thriving art studio with a growing team, shares her unique journey from studying software engineering to becoming a successful artist.

🎨 Starting to draw at a young age, Wixx never saw art as a viable career path and initially followed her sister’s footsteps into software engineering. However, with encouragement from family and friends, she began sharing her artwork online, gradually revealing her creative process and face to her growing audience.

🚀 Today, Wixx runs her own studio, balancing the challenges and wins of creating visually appealing stories and art both for herself and on behalf of major brands. She opens up about the struggles of pursuing her passion and the triumphs that have shaped her career.

If you’re interested in art, creative entrepreneurship, or personal growth, this episode is packed with valuable insights!
