LocKDin with Idris Din
The podcast where I speak to those balancing a 9-5 with a creative side hustle.
The aim is twofolds:
1. To share the blueprints of those who started on their journey, and what's the lo-fi way that YOU can learn from them to get started on their creative domain
2. To get you to just start!! Starting out is important but how to maintain it is what you'll learn from this.
Here you can learn from those that are doing Content Creation, Music, Film, Podcasting, Magic, DJ, Standup Comedy and more!!
If you're interested on being a guest, do let me know :))
