Moments to listen for:

Perception is reality - 4:58 

"I think I would probably say, believing in yourself and believing in the work that you're doing and asking for what you deserve. And owning, owning that, and being confident in that. And perception is reality. so if people perceive you as confident, successful, you know what you're doing, you do good work. They're going to believe that is the truth and it is, but you can be a great photographer, amazing work, but you come across as maybe You're not confident, are you professional seems kind of wishy-washy on this, I'm going to perceive him as not as good. For so then that is the truth."

 

Go home and cry like a winner - 9:01

"My team is like go home and cry like a winner but they mean it in a good way. Cry like a winner because you're going to feel these things you're going to make mistakes you're going to have those doubts and it's okay you're allowed to feel those things and you are human like I'm not a robot, but that's also a part of the growth right? [...] There's going to be times where you feel like you're not showing up maybe as you want, but I think in just the very act of trying to show up as the person fully that you want to be you are doing it. You're getting there."

 

Know why you shoot - 16:23 

"I think knowing why you shoot in the first place. Why do you love photography in the first place? Do you and really understanding why you shoot the way you shoot?"

 

 

 Pretty good is not okay - 41:41

"Pretty good is not okay. Really fully understanding what white privilege is and how I have it and how I was just like a happy go lucky person I'd love everyone head in the sand, I was that 100% I'm learning so much and I was rocked, I was rocked. But I am feeling very excited. And I'm feeling very grateful to be even living through this in 2020. Because I totally believe in all the positive changes that are going to come from this. I'm so excited to be a part of that. And like what can I do to be a part of that? And to feel like, 'Hey, you actually can do something about it.' You can be a part of the solution, not just the problem because realizing you're part of the problem is the first step."
