Episode 6: Show Notes.
Welcome to another episode of NorCal and Shill, where we speak with self-portrait photographer Ayla El-Moussa. We kick off our conversation by talking about her hardware wallet, and we compare the user interfaces of Ledger and Trezor, landing on the advice that it can be beneficial to have more than one hardware wallet. Ayla shares the nugget of wisdom that it is important to flow in the space without attachment, because profit is profit, and explains why she has always thought creatively and created art. She tells the story of how she started acting as both model and photographer out of necessity while living on Vancouver Island, and tells us all about her career history, from babysitting and making album covers to creative agency work, always with creative projects on the side. We touch on the role of Instagram in creating visibility for artists, and how the pressure of a deadline gives Ayla the laser focus she needs to produce great work, before exploring the merits of pineapple on pizza and how, when you let go of your expectations, you can free yourself. You’ll also hear why FOMO is dangerous, and how doing things with deliberation can elevate your work. We hope you join us to hear all this and more today.
