Pep talks for 3 listeners: how to have confidence in new ventures + balance creative growth with showing up as a mom (Ep 186)
Takeaways:
1. growing in business + creativity doesn't have to be at odds with showing up as the mom and wife you want to be.
2. you have to believe you can't afford NOT to pursue your dreams simultaneously with your other pursuits and relationships
3. action creates confidence, not the other way around. You don't need confidence in your abilities, you only need confidence in your own resilience.
4. Take your new big visions to the people on a slower, more specific timeline than you think.
5. the most interesting person in the room is the most interested
6. you can't predict all the beautiful ways your vulnerability and you going first will snowball!

Family photography has traditionally been the lowest rung on the photography ladder. Not as cool as wedding, fashion, or commercial photography, family photographers have been relegated to little more than button pushers serving the masses.
This reflects the patriarchal structure that runs on the unpaid, unseen labor of parents - especially mothers. Society cannot value what it cannot see.
We rage against this machine by witnessing + spotlighting the holy work of parenthood and family life through art.
I also learned a surprising truth from launching the magazine that I'm sharing in this quick episode! It applies no matter what medium you create in. THANK YOU for being here!
If you work with clients who commission creations from you, this episode is a must listen. Learn how managing expectations is actually doing all of us a disservice, how managing expectations is getting lost in the weeds and what we need to do instead to create true innovation, plus the one assumption to change if you want to be more inspired by your own work while working for clients.

In today's episode, we chat all about regression, plus the less rigid approach on daily habits. Top 6 Takeaways: 1) when you feel you've regressed, it might not be a regression at all but a recalibration to your truest values. 2) the more all-or-nothing thinking we have, the more likely it is we'll go to 'nothing' - the surest way to kill any momentum. 3) believe your best creative work is yet to come! 4) we are not robots on an upward-only trajectory in the creative journey. 5) your practice is hugely beneficial to others, do it on stage where we can see you. 6) switch up the context in which you share or show up for your creative work, you'll get noticed more and be able to make a much larger impact than circling the drains of your own niche. As always, there are tons of resources to check out at www.brookebschultz.com, see you there!
