I'm super focused on making books so I thought I'd make a silent vlog where you can just be in the studio with me. I share some recent thoughts and feelings I have about fear and self-doubt. I'd love to hear your experiences and strategies in the comments! Rajiv Surendra's videos: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPBX4CwI7bw_UYpWmsBj6x7NYkgn2sjb7 My tattoo is by @kumigems https://www.instagram.com/kumigems/ My books are all my original designs. It's okay if you tried to make it yourself at home, but please don't replicate it to sell. I'm all for giving you ideas for your own designs though!
