Summary

In this first part of my conversation with the brilliant and wildly creative Blu Most, we dive into her experience through art, food styling, creative direction, and event design—embracing creative cycles, identifying as an ideas person, and navigating the tension between financial security and artistic freedom. We also get into stepping away from Instagram, marketing to niche communities, and how all of us being walking personal brands intersects with authenticity. Stay tuned for Part 2, where we get into ADHD habits, community for freelancers, shifting towards intimate gatherings, her best advice on relationships and anxiety, and how aging changes our perspective on it all.
