Illustrator Anoosha Syed says you have to know your "why" when it comes to social media

Last week on It’s a Lot, I was thrilled to chat with children’s book author/illustrator Anoosha Syed. She’s had a fascinating career path so far and she’s an incredibly talented artist, and she’s a new mom as well! We had a great conversation about content creation, building a brand online, knowing your “why” when it comes to social media, letting go of dreams you once had for your career, and how damn hard it is to balance freelance work and motherhood.

Check it out! Anoosha is so insightful; I hope you’ll find something that resonates.

Curious for more? Here are some of my favorite moments from our conversation.

Follow Anoosha on Instagram for more of her work! If you’d like to check out her books, I recommend Lost Stick or Look! Babies Head to Toe (by Robie H. Harris, illustrated by Anoosha Syed).
