Laura and I sit down for a wide-ranging conversation about business, creativity, personal growth, and what it really takes to build something meaningful, both in the world and within yourself.
We explore everything from the art of raising capital and spotting emerging trends early, to embracing your role as a creator of your reality, merging personal philosophies with professional strategy, and finding alignment in the way you work and live.
If you’re a founder, creator, or someone striving to grow both personally and professionally, this conversation offers real stories, lessons, and perspectives you won’t hear anywhere else.
Some things you'll learn in this discussion:
Why business is both an art and a science, and how to master both.
How to spot and move early on emerging trends and opportunities.
Why raising capital is an art, and how to develop the skill.
The power of personal responsibility and manifesting your reality.
How to ground yourself, find clarity, and respond instead of react.
Why the best entrepreneurs blend humility, scars, and vision.
How to infuse who you truly are into what you create.
What it really means to do The Work, and why it never ends.
