It’s one of the reasons I was so excited to get together over our afternoon tea to chat!

Eye Opening Insight:
[7:49] “Very quickly I was at corporate and I was like, oh, no, no, no. This is like where creativity comes to die. If you, like make a suggestion in a meeting, people will look at you like, are you saying we're doing it wrong? And I was like, oh, okay. And I just left and I didn't have a thing lined up. I just left cuz I got burnt out and really, the answer to everything is being in the depths of misery at corporate is the reason I do everything that I do right now. I'm, I just work to be the opposite in every possible way. That's why joy is a major factor of my business.
[11:55] “So perfect clients, exactly what they need is exactly what you do, and you're kind of like, you're together. So the other thing is they're gonna have to be, your clients. If you're gonna work this way really on transformation, you're gonna have to have clients who really want that.”
[17:15] “So I have a term which is the joy and genius zone. And the reason I call it that is cuz when we say genius zone, like we all know what we mean, right? Like, yay, sure, like it's the thing that you're great at. But there are things that we're great, that we're great at or really good at that give us energy or deplete our energy. And to me that's the difference between a genius zone and then a joy in genius zone.”
