On today's show, I'm pleased to welcome Nolis Anderson a Chicago-based portrait photographer.

I talk with Nolis about his journey from pharmacy school to becoming a successful photographer. We talk about how to navigate a new career, about learning how to learn and about how to stay top of mind clients in a low-key way. Enjoy!

I'm excited to welcome writer, Roxanne Fequiere to the show. Roxanne's writing is witty, introspective and simply delightful. If she were a TV character, she definitely would be Rhoda of The Mary Tyler Moore Show! During our conversation, we discuss crafting relationships and a life of our choosing.
