I was recently interviewed in Furquan Ahmad's YouTube channel about design systems and thought it would great to cross-post it to you all as it works just as well as a podcast.
We discussed:
- What they are in 10 words
- What they aren't!
- How to encourage adoption
- Whether they limit creativity
- Advice for junior designers getting started with them
- Naming convention advice
Hope you enjoy this cross post 👋

Special: Overcoming imposter syndrome
Hey everyone! I was published in Smashing Magazine this week with an article titled "Overcoming Imposter Syndrome By Developing Your Own Guiding Principles", and thought that because it's a long article you may like to hear an audio version of it.
Let me know what you think 🙌
