    Petit: 5 lessons from the trenches of running my own creative business

    Petit: 5 lessons from the trenches of running my own creative business

    In this episode, I share some valuable lessons I've learned throughout her career in the production business. I share the importance of prioritising tasks and doing the hardest thing first, as well as the mindset shift of rehearsing things to remove pressure and foster creativity. I also talk about the concept of allocating levers to achieve goals when you get stuck and the power of reverse engineering. I also emphasise that success is a result of consistent effort and a hundred smaller nudges, rather than one big opportunity.

    Renowned Australian painter Paul Davies on his process of trial and error and slowing way down

    Renowned Australian painter Paul Davies on his process of trial and error and slowing way down

    In this episode, I sit down with the renowned Australian painter Paul Davies. We discuss his journey as an artist and the influence of architecture and storytelling in his work. He emphasises the importance of maintaining a slow and handmade approach to his art. Davies shares his process of creating paintings, which involves using photographs and drawings as references and collaging them to create a new scene. He also talks about the significance of childhood memories and personal experiences in shaping his artistic style. Davies highlights the value of residencies, curiosity, and continuous learning in keeping his work fresh and evolving.
    In awe of this Australian creative, I love the concept that we're watching him evolve in the present day, knowing he will be one of the greats.

    Petit: We're doing enough, go away Steve & are print mags the new social media?

    Petit: We're doing enough, go away Steve & are print mags the new social media?

    It's been about a month since Process the Podcast has been back in your ears consistently, and I am LOVING it!
    To celebrate International Women's Day last week, premium fashion boutique The New Trend partnered with hospitality venue Beverly Rooftop to curate an exclusive brunch and panel discussion dedicated to championing a cause and supporting the Women’s & Girls Emergency Centre charity. Welcoming female guests from various spheres, including media, influential figures, and trailblazing women in business, the event centred on authenticity, fostering meaningful dialogue, and amplifying female leadership. Aligned with both brand's commitment to philanthropy, the event endeavoured to inspire community engagement and support for impactful initiatives.
     
    I hosted the panel discussion and raised my exhaustion in the pursuit of effortlessness across various facets of life, championing self-appreciation and the recognition of women's achievements. Featuring Emily Gurr, Entrepreneur and Creative Director of @beverlyrooftop, Vanessa Spencer, Brand Director at @tntthenewtrend, and Sally Crinis, Founder of @stella_co_ @weareboxie, the panel explored the nuanced dimensions of female leadership, embracing traits such as softness, compassion, intellect, and empowerment.
    In other news, I'm fed up with the Steve's of the world telling me I'm not doing enough, ugh! When did jumping on social media for a quick scroll make me feel so behind? Sorry mate, my agencies not doing $100,000 per month, but I'm incredibly happy and privileged to be where I am. So, I suggest banishing the Steve's, and carving our my own select few people to follow. Bring back the joy of seeing what everyone is up to.
    I have recently discovered the pure bliss in print mags too, now that Elle Magazine is back! I love the experience of sitting down without interruptions to be shown a highly curated spread of fashion, trends, though-provoking articles and beautiful imagery. I feel seen and spoken to the way I want to be - finally. Bravo Elle.
    I hope you love this episode, please subscribe, follow us on Instagram and Tik Tok! See you Sunday!

BrookeMGK ,

My new favorite podcast!

I have binged every episode since I first heard my friend Daisy on an episode. Arielle asks questions you don’t hear on other podcasts. I always feel like I’m listening to two friends having a chat, and I always leave with gems. I have shared with so many friends!
