In this episode of Never Not Creative, Andy Wright sits down with Yasmin Naghavi, founder of Artis Causa and board member of Never Not Creative, to talk about the Never Not Creative Support Line and the legal, emotional and professional challenges creative workers often face.
Together, they unpack how power imbalances, unfairtreatment, bullying, harassment, unpaid entitlements and job insecurity can impact mental health, why getting advice early can make a huge difference, and how both employees and employers can approach difficult conversations, saferworkplaces and the changing role of AI in creative work.
