Work, Rest and most Importantly Play - Joanna Fortune - Solamh
“Making something a daily practise makes it effortless”.
In this episode of Corporate to Calm I speak with Joanna Fortune. Joanna chats about her passion for play and how this shines through in her life as a psychotherapist, author & podcaster.
Joanna took her leap from Corporate to Calm twelve years ago when she founded her business Solamh which is the Irish for wisdom. This being the wisdom that exists between people, which at that time was between parent & child.
Solamh launched while The Celtic Tiger was letting out it’s last roar. Joanna literally developed a strategy that enabled her Corporate NGO workplace to function without her. It was a roll of the dice but at that time if financial uncertainty & crisis her new business was exactly what was needed.
Joanna explains that when you start a business for the first couple of years your job is to stay in business. Working and maybe not earning. She talks about lessons learned and saying Yes to every opportunity. This strategy is aligned to her excellent media tips.
Joanna’s transfer of business online during the past 18 months was seamless and the demand for her & and other mental health practitioners has been overwhelming.
Joanna is a woman supporting and lifting other women up rather than leaving them behind.
“Talk, share & amplify each other”.
I had so much fun recording Joanna’s journey from Corporate to Calm and have loved listening to it.
