“I was raised to think that there was only one path that I could take… the traditional corporate path.”
- Shinah
So, how exactly does someone with absolutely zero business or artistic training launch and grow an almost-million-dollar business as a creative entrepreneur?
If I hadn’t done it myself, I’d be just as confused as you!
In this episode, I dive more deeply into the nitty-gritty details of how I transformed from an unhappy corporate securities lawyer to an unsure wannabe creative entrepreneur to a wildly successful calligraphy artist and teacher who loves what she does.
(And since I love breaking things down, we’re going to tackle my story in three parts!)
My story starts back in childhood. I grew up with the idea that there was one path I needed to take in order to be successful. You know the one: study hard, get straight As, get into the best school I could, and land a prestigious job and financial stability.
As you can probably tell, perfection was a major theme during that period of my life.
To be honest, it never even occurred to me that there were other ways to be truly successful. I never really stopped to think about what I actually wanted my life to look like.
So, I took that path. I went to Harvard, got my law degree, landed the job… and felt completely miserable.
Until I decided to do something about it.
