Creativity is self-care - Brand Designer Hope Meng
Motivated to recover from the low-grade depression she’d been in, Hope began making time for creativity again. She set out to find more meaning in her work, to connect with other creatives, and to explore her own interests and creative projects. She shares her story, with all its twists and turns, and some of the lessons she’s learned along the way.

Hope woke up one day to realise that she hadn’t accomplished even half of the things she’d envisioned for her career. Motivated to recover from the low-grade depression she’d been in, she began making time for creativity again.
Hope set out to find more purpose and meaning in her work, to connect with other creatives, and to explore her own interests and creative projects. She shares her story with Steve, from bricks-and-mortar business owner to world-traveller; to mum of two and now brand designer with plenty of creative side projects on the go.
