In this episode of The FAFO Podcast, BD Storm sits down with professional tattoo artist and entrepreneur Cristian Rodriguez for a conversation about art, ambition, taking chances, and finding the career that actually fits who you are.

Cristian set out to become the first person in his family to graduate from college and originally pursued cybersecurity before realizing he needed something more creative. That unexpected turn eventually led him to tattooing, where he has spent the past five years developing his craft and specializing in black-and-grey realism.

We talk about breaking away from the path you thought you were supposed to follow, becoming a tattoo artist, turning creativity into a business, building confidence, dealing with fear and mistakes, the pressure of creating permanent art on another person's body, and Cristian's philosophy of becoming 1% better every day.

We also get into tattoo culture, the stories people carry on their skin, why clients often open up to their tattoo artists, and what Cristian has learned about himself while building a life around something he genuinely loves.
