Mapping the Creative Entrepreneur’s Journey with CEO Erica Arvold (Part 2)
In part 2 of this conversation with Erica Arvold (casting director, director, producer, educator, and CEO of Arvold. Productions), we talked about cultivating a creative entrepreneur career. Also, we have a rapid-fire exploration of the seven paths to manifesting change in our lives. Erica offers her insights about how we can use the Emotional, Analytical, Intuitive, Physical, Creative, Spiritual, and Social paths to enrich our lives.
Topics include:
1. How Erica's relationship with her emotional self has changed over the years.
2. Why do the analytical self and the intuitive self need to work in concert with each other?
3. Why it's good that we're not all driven by a want for productivity.
4. The Universe really does have your back -- a mindset approach to alignment.
5. The importance of grief.
6. The importance of practicing self-compassion.
7. Best practices for cultivating creative relationships.
8. Erica's wish for anyone who is cultivating meaningful change in their lives.
Quotes:
It's all a grand experiment anyway. And that's what I say in all my classes, especially when I'm directing, I'm like you guys, this is a grand experiment. We might just fail. And if we fail, it's my fault. You can blame me a hundred percent. And if we win, it's all your credit. All I'm there to do is set up the whole tone that it's an experiment. That's how I run the company.
I think everyone's creative. I don't think you can be human without being creative. I think it's a muscle and sometimes people don't use it a lot and sometimes people use it, so, so, so much. But creativity is a part of the world. I mean, it literally is, is why we exist today… creativity doesn't mean necessarily art, but creative thinking, creative solutions. Creative doodling!
I am such a believer that the universe has your back that I don't know how to operate other than that. And when I don't believe that, when there's the day or the weeks that I go through and I'm like, it just doesn't seem like it. It's just like, it's like digging a hole. And as soon as I just go back to that core belief, it's all going to be fine. It's a grand experiment and the universe has my back and everyone in my life too. And it doesn't just apply to me. The universe has OUR backs.
It takes an entire group of sometimes hundreds and hundreds, if not thousands of people to create one project. And I just think that it's incredible and people at the top of their game, in their very specific focus of their art and they're contributing… that's why it's movie magic to me. That's movie magic. It's not because they're falsifying a fake background and you believe it. The magic is that all these creatives come together full of unbelievable talent and joy and craft and all commit to one specific creative idea and then create. That's crazy. It's like building pyramids.
