After a long break, my advice column Ask CYOO is back! Thank you to this lovely reader for submitting two very thoughtful questions, which I’ll be breaking up into separate posts.

I’m always thrilled to receive new questions from you all. You can ask me anything that might help you move forward in your art and life, whether it’s regarding time management, focus, practices for reflection and inspiration, feelings of inadequacy, finance woes, or anything else that is coming in between you and your art!

Dear CYOO,

How does your full-time job complement or inspire your job as an illustrator, if at all? I was in tech, and am currently trying to pivot careers (from finance into product management) as I feel like there are parallels in being a creative with the product management profession.
