I had the huge honor to kick off the TYPO conference in San Francisco a few weeks back, and this is my talk. I am speaking on the importance of taking your side projects seriously and share 8 lessons I am going to teach my children.
Other TYPO SF videos currently available are by Mike Monteiro and Joshua Davis.
TYPO conferences take place in Berlin, London and San Francisco. I highly recommend attending one.

Clicked the play button on my way to bed – just to have a quick look – couldn’t stop looking and now it’s really late and ! have to get up early. But it was worth it!

Tina,
Thank you for a beautiful heartfelt presentation. I will share it with my 2 children who are just embarking on careers in the design world. I believe they will find it as inspiring as I did.
Bless you,

This talk was really inspiring to me! Thanks for sharing the video. I am also a mom trying to break into the world of self-employment after working in video games for 10 years. It’s great to see other designers and artists making the switch with great success. Your talk got me thinking I need to start re-evaluating my goals and really start thinking about side projects. Thank you!
