This is one inspiring conversation with vibrant, proudly neurodiverse, creative artist Leonie Dawson.
They have built a $13 million online creative business (working only 10 hours a week), won a host of awards for their biz, and is a prolific philanthropist who leads by example to show up as your authentic, weird, wonderful self.
Leonie shares valuable lessons on pursuing what your soul is calling you to do.
They show that building a business while working a full-time job is not only possible, but can be a joy. They share how they had the time of their life blogging and creating, while infusing their stale workplace with joy and love.
We get real and honest about shifting mindsets, overcoming self-doubt, pursuing creative passions, experiences with loss, the influence of elder women in their life, and the importance of embracing life's challenges and finding meaning in the midst of them.
We also discuss philanthropy and the role it plays in Leonie's life, highlighting the importance of giving back (and how much easier it is to do when you are wealthy!).
Leonie's story reminds us to pursue what sets our hearts and souls on fire, injecting joy wherever we can, appreciating the preciousness of life, and living life to the fullest.
I bloody love this colourful, fun human and all they stand for.
I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!
