Bold voices. Messy journeys. Zero apologies.

A Podcast about Empowering Creatives, Embracing Uniqueness & Redefining Success


Creatively Eccentric is a podcast about radically redefining what it means to be a creative in a world that still prefers conformity — where unapologetically bold, unconventional, and underrepresented creators get real about breaking rules, navigating rejection, and carving out success on their own terms.


Too many creatives feel pressure to fit into narrow industry boxes that don’t reflect who they are.

The creative industry still upholds gatekeeping, homogeneity, and burnout culture.


There’s a lack of platforms that celebrate messy, multi-passionate, neurodivergent, and culturally diverse creators who are doing things differently.


Join Graphic Designer and host Heather Ebanks, who will be offering honest solo reflection episodes, alongside conversations with talented creatives, and practical tools for thriving outside the traditional path.


Creatively Eccentric doesn’t ask you to “find your niche” or play to the algorithm — it encourages you to build a career by being more of yourself.

  • The Truth About Success: What Creatives Are Sacrificing Without Realising with Jo Hooper
    2026/09/02

    Many traditional business models prioritise profit and growth over the personal well-being of the entrepreneur. This often leads to burnout and dissatisfaction. Jo Hooper believes that the conventional mindset of working tirelessly for success can be detrimental.

    She highlights that many entrepreneurs fall into the trap of thinking that long hours equate to success, which is not true. Instead of sacrificing their personal lives for work, she encourages entrepreneurs to design their businesses around their lives.

  • Trailer: Season 2 & Studio Draw (er) | Creatively Eccentric
    2026/08/26

    What started in Season 1 as a quick end-of-episode question about desk clutter has evolved into its own dedicated companion show.

    For every main episode, my guests will be opening up their Studio draw (ers) to share raw sketches, unfinished experiments, bizarre creative habits, and half-baked ideas that usually stay hidden away.

    ⭐️New Season 2 Episodes Starts 3rd of September 2026⭐️
