The Business of Creativity with Aura McKay | RR250 Relationships Rule

My guest today has me buzzing with anticipation. I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Aura McKay - the visionary behind Business of Creativity, an award-winning photographer, and a dynamic business coach. Aura brings a unique blend of passion and expertise to the table.
In this episode, she takes us on a journey, sharing anecdotes from her unconventional upbringing in the 60s and the impactful lessons from her creative parents - her remarkable story seamlessly weaves together creativity, relationships, and business brilliance. Listen as we explore the struggles creatives face, challenge myths about the starving artist, and discover practical tools like the elusive "magic unicorn spreadsheet."

I’m thrilled we got to explore Aura McKay's world, and I bet you were as hooked on her wisdom as I was - it’s all happening right here on this episode.
