22: Savoring Life With Maya Oren (Creative Director) Successful: The Podcast
-
- Careers
Maya Oren became the Creative Director for a boutique hotel after starting off as an entrepreneur making films and telling stories from around the world. She also has a substack newsletter called ‘On Holiday’ in which she hopes to inspire others to live more intentionally and find the sweetness out of everyday life experiences.
Key Takeaways:
Creativity can be part of our everyday lives, it doesn’t have to be siloed to a large artistic pursuit
Shifting from entrepreneurship to the corporate world can be empowering in that it can provide us with the resources to realize the full potential of our creativity
Finding rituals that help to ground you can bring some slowness and intentionality to our lives
-We can pull ritual inspiration from our cultural heritage and through examining how other cultures approach life
-For example, Maya has taken to lighting Shabbat candles on Friday and using a Mezuzah over her door to honor her cultural background and find some moments of ritual
Recognition in our careers will come when we’re living in alignment and from a source of joy
