À propos de cet audio
So many creatives want the bag and we get it but what if the work you didn’t get paid for is what sets you up for everything else?
In this episode, host Blessing Azugama sits down with writer and storyteller Dee to talk about the underrated power of volunteering and internships in your creative journey. They break down how to tell when a free gig is worth it, how to avoid being exploited, and how those “unpaid” seasons can unlock real confidence, connections, and even cash later.
If you’ve ever felt conflicted about working for free, or unsure how to build experience when no one’s hiring this one’s for you.
🎧 Topics we cover:
Dee’s first volunteer writing gig and what it taught her
The “used vs useful” debate around free work
Green flags for volunteer roles that actually grow you
How to stay motivated when the money isn’t there (yet)
What giving your time freely can teach you about yourself
This isn’t charity. It’s a strategy.
