360. A Lesson In Confidence: How To Own Your Worth, Embrace Being A Beginner & Tell A Good Story With Lauren Nemeroff


Listen Later

When I met Lauren three years ago, she was on an entirely different career path. Fast forward to today: She owns her own creative agency, Flow State Creative, and is the brains behind some of the most eye-catching, thoughtful campaigns behind your favorite athletic brands.

This week, I'm stoked to be sitting down with one with Laur, whose become one of my dearest friends, to talk about what it's like to not only be a female photographer and entrepreneur within sport, but the hurdles that she's faced in building her dream career. Plus: How to manage anxiety, develop a healthy routine on-the-road, and her best-practice advice for anyone who's struggling with owning their greatness and building their confidence.
