“the honest creative”

off script, on purpose

I started my first business at 14 and spent years building businesses alongside my corporate career. At 22, I landed my “dream” role and was immediately given an ultimatum: keep the position or keep my businesses. I chose my businesses (duh). Now, I’m building a life by design and sharing what that looks like through my own content.

I teach creatives the editing, storytelling, and content skills I use every day, and when a brand gets the vision, I bring that same storytelling to them too.

meet the honest creative.

I’m India: founder since 14, cinematic storyteller, and the voice behind The Honest Creative. Eleven months out of college, I chose my businesses over my dream corporate role, and I’ve been building a life by design ever since. Here, I share all of it honestly: the wins, the process, and the parts most people edit out. It’s all for the multi-hyphenates and big dreamers who want to create on their own terms.
