On Auras, Finding Joy + Short-Form Video Content Girl Gang Craft The Podcast
-
- Entrepreneurship
Lisandra Vazquez is a Puerto Rican-born photographer, media strategist, and short-form video expert with a deep fascination for all things media. Her work has explored self-presentation, identity, power, femininity, social comparison, and the tension between fantasy and reality. A passionate researcher and spiritual educator, Lisandra has also provided aura readings for friends and clients alike. Her company, Auraology (which has paused operations—for now!), was created to shed light on auras by way of offering people photographed versions of their aura image.
As it did for most of us, 2020 brought Lisandra Vazquez something all creative entrepreneurs are terrified of: a full stop to her business. The pivot that followed, however, has brought the talented photographer, media strategist, and short-form video expert new joy in the face of uncertainty. This week, Phoebe sits down with the long-time friend of GGC (and former Clique workshop instructor!) to discuss all things transition, transformation, and of course–TikToks and Reels.
Listeners tune in to a lively chat exploring auras (and how they reflect/inform our personal journeys), how Lisandra pivoted her business to new heights, and practical ways creative entrepreneurs can embrace short-form video content for their business.
Quotes:
[24:45] It’s okay that Auraology was a chapter and not the whole book. It’s not a failure. It’s a success.
[27:19] Give yourself permission to drop the things not serving you anymore.
