This week’s guest is Kyle Roebuck, host of the Small Stuff Podcast and videographer. Kyle is from North Carolina and studio at East Carolina University. It was there that he held a job as a school bus driver until two years after graduation. During that time, he came to the realization that a traditional job was not for him, and, he left.

Throughout his life, Kyle had always been a visual artist during things including drawing but it wasn’t until he tried photography and then videography that he also found a new career path for himself. Following his college job, Kyle gave photography a try, immersing himself YouTube videos to teach himself photography. He is someone who will try anything but will not continue to pursue it if he isn’t good at it and he was good at photography.

To make ends meet, Kyle did get another full-time job eventually and that drove him to build up his photography skillset and business more quickly so he could be free of the “9 to 5”. Having the newfound love of photography gave him a purpose at his full-time job and helped shift his attitude towards working as being something that would enable him to do what he really wanted to do sooner.

Kyle shares a lot about his experience with imposter syndrome and how it affects him. It is a subject that has come up on the podcast before but his insight was very relatable to those of us that don’t take compliments very well. He is also a believer in positive thinking and explains how it works for him.

Note from Rabiah (Host): I have done in a few times but it was interesting to host a podcast host on my podcast. Kyle was nervous but then the conversation mode kicked in and things went great.Kyle’s experience working at his campus job until after graduation was similar to mine but we both moved on in different ways. I really admire those who chose the creative career early on!
