Waves Podcast: Motivation for Creatives & Entrepreneurs

Can you be a professional-super-talented photographer and filmmaker at only 21 years old? Yes! If you're like Alexandra, also known on Instagram as Lostinayaland. She and I talked about her background, how she discovered photography and learnt how to use a camera without going to college for it... And how she managed to become the artist she is now, while studying architecture. Yes. that's a lot. We then talked about art itself by discussing topics like storytelling, editing, and what makes a video good, interesting, AND entertaining.

If you're a content creator or an entrepreneur, there's no way you won't get any knowledge or inspiration listening to Alexandra so please, go ahead!

Christina Sturgeon is a talented actor and dancer and GREAT podcast guest! She and I started by talking about her job and the movie industry in general. She told me how she found her agent and manager, and shared tips on how you could find one too, should you be interested in this career! But that's not all! Christina told us her story, how she found her passion for dancing and acting, before talking about concepts like manifestation, and how important it is for you to believe in your own ability to do something to actually achieve it.

Christina is awesome and so is her Instagram account, so please go check it out! It's @christinasturg

In this episode, Maia Sancia tells us about her purpose as a manifestation coach. She explains why she became one, when and how she decided to suddenly quit her nine to five job and completely change her life... And obviously teaches us all about Manifestation and the law of attraction! She gives us a six-step method to help us manifest our biggest dreams and life goals before experimenting on yours truly, to show how one can manifest the love of his life. I'm really hoping this one works.

In this episode, Amy Suto tells us how she got in touch with her creativity at a young age and kept exploring it through her writing before studying screenwriting at USC and finally becoming the professional writer she is, writing for the LA Times, creating her own shows, ghostwriting biographies... And much more. But as logical as it sounds, her journey has also been very tough at some point as she had to work VERY hard to make it that far that fast. That's what struck me when talking to her and it's one more reason to pay attention to what she has to say about her job and passion: the tricks to build creativity she shares with us WORK because... Well she used them so... I think that's proof enough?

After our first interview last November, I still had a lot of questions for Hannah Siddiqui. For example, we talked about what it is like to be a creative person and deal with our emotion, and then progressively got into the business side of it all. We actually talked money, which is usually a big taboo for everyone but maybe even more in the creative industry. But we got to this topic when Hannah said a phrase that caught my attention: It's important to know your worth.

As an olympic skier, Victor White has had to prove his determination to succeed on several occasions. First he had to win competitions to get noticed by professionals, then come back after serious injuries, and finally deal with some awful personal hardships. Despite all of these, he's always managed to get back on his feet and look forward.

In this interview, he tells us about how he managed to do all that at only 22 years old, and shares what helps him stay focused and find motivation when he feels down.

As Sly says it herself: she, like many of my guests, wears many different hats. From her life as an entrepreneur, to her new podcast, but also working as a dancer, and even appearing in a hit movie... She's done MANY different things. So it was great to get a chance to talk to her and try to understand more about her journey.

First, Sly told us about the way she manages her time to increase her efficiency when working from home, how she finds clients, her different marketing strategies... And tons of other tips for entrepreneurs. Then we got to the big question: "why does she do this? What motivates her?" Before finally talking about her podcast a little bit!

Laura Rigon is an amazingly nice actor who lives between Melbourne and Los Angeles, also working as a model sometimes. She was kind enough to answer my questions in this super long episode of Waves Podcast. We talked about a looot of things but the main one was obviously her experience as an actor. She told me how she discovered acting, theater, why she decided to go to LA to look for new jobs, and shared a lot of interesting tips on how to start as an actor in the US coming from a different country!
We obviously talked about a million other things, played a few games and I had a lot of fun recording this, so I'm hoping you will like it!
