Hey friends, to kick off the pod, we chatted with Tina Yip about her journey from leaving her corporate 9 to 5 job to finding her groove, and building a business in sync with who she is and how she wants to spend her time. Tina is a coach and the creator of Space to Grow, where she helps creative people make their work/life more intentional, meaningful, and expansive.
Tina had spent the last decade as a brand strategist at agencies such as R/GA and Big Spaceship working on brands like Samsung and Mastercard, when she realized that what she cared most about were people - bringing people together, maximizing their human potential, rethinking their relationship with work, and challenging societal norms so that they can live their most fulfilled lives.
Tina's favorite things include musical theatre, travel (with a lot of love for Japan), watching YouTube essays about culture, fashion, and music, stamps (and giving herself a good job stamp after completing her day's to-do list), non-fiction books (currently reading The Mountain is You) and cute things (SAME!).
Tina shared her favorite Hawaiian shirt! It’s a beautiful blue shirt set on the seas with details such as scenic islands with wooden huts and bright purple flowers.

Josh Greene has spent his career building experiences that bring people together and guiding creative entrepreneurs on their journeys. From organizing music festivals attended by over 500,000 people, to living in an ashram in India, his path has been anything but traditional. He’s built and sold businesses, served as VP at WeWork, and is now the co-founder and CEO of Groove. Josh believes entrepreneurship is a sacred path that’s all about living authentically, building meaningful connections, and creating a life you love - on your own terms.
Taylor Harrington is obsessed with doing things differently. As the Head of Community at Groove, she helps remote workers and creatives find their flow, crush their to-do lists, and make genuine connections across the globe. Before Groove, Taylor worked with best-selling author, Seth Godin, in a role that came without a job title or description (talk about non-traditional!). She loves celebrating little wins, geeking out on ADHD-friendly focus tips, and designing gatherings that spark joy.
If you’re living and working in a way that’s in sync with who you are (or want to be doing that soon!), this pod is for you!
Each episode, we swap stories with guests who have found that the traditional path, the system, whatever you want to call it, isn’t set up for people like us.
We couldn’t fully be ourselves. So, we challenged the status quo and set off to carve our own paths. It hasn’t been easy, we’ve found that settling for a life that doesn’t light us up is even harder.
The podcast was created to help listeners like you feel less alone on this journey of doing things differently. Through stories and being in community with each other, we can avoid burnout, share bursts of encouragement, and inspire each other to keep going.
And, hey, when life throws us off track, we can help each other find our groove again.
