In today's episode we are talking all about speed. That's all we are going to say, we are going to leave it with a bit of aura of mystery... So without further ado, let's get into the show!


Ever feel like the design world is full of polished highlight reels that don't match your reality? The Honest Designers Show cuts through the noise with real talk from working creatives. Hosts Tom Ross, Ian Barnard, Dustin Lee, and Lisa Glanz aren't just theorists; each has built a thriving career on their own terms, and they pull back the curtain on what that actually entails. This isn't about abstract inspiration-it's a practical, often messy, look at building a sustainable creative life. In each episode, you'll hear candid conversations that tackle the unglamorous side of the business, from navigating client relationships and pricing your work authentically to maintaining creative energy and finding your unique voice in a crowded market. The discussions are grounded in the hosts' own successes and stumbles, offering a collective wisdom that feels more like advice from trusted colleagues than a lecture. Tune into this podcast for a genuine sense of camaraderie and actionable strategies you can apply directly to your own practice. Brought to you by Design Cuts, The Honest Designers Show is that essential weekly conversation for any designer looking to grow their skills, their business, and their confidence without the sugar-coating.
