Improvisation is not just a theater class, but a personal development tool that builds confidence, empowerment, and the ability to take risks. The intersection of mindfulness and improvisation is explored in the podcast Monster Baby. Storytelling is a powerful communication tool that helps us learn, motivate, and build empathy. Saying yes and practicing asking for what you want can lead to personal growth and new opportunities. Theater and art touch our humanity and can inspire us to pursue our passions. In this conversation, my cousin Lisa Rowland and I discuss the power of improvisation and its impact on personal growth and creativity. We explore the importance of saying 'yes' to new experiences and following one's curiosity, even if the outcome is uncertain. Lisa shares her experiences with improv and highlights how it can transcend comedy and become a form of theater that touches on different aspects of humanity. She also discusses the challenges of being a performer and the need to find balance between teaching and performing. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the transformative and joyful nature of creativity and the pursuit of one's passions.

The biggest shift creators can make is to understand the value they provide to clients and solve their problems with video. This allows them to be seen as problem solvers rather than just videographers, leading to higher rates. Taking calls instead of relying on email and messages can make a big difference in communication and standing out from the crowd. Nick Metzger helps struggling videographers make a living by teaching them marketing and sales skills. The key challenge for creators is learning how to properly market themselves and do sales. Understanding the client's goals and needs is crucial in providing value and tailoring the video to solve their specific problem. Asking for the client's budget is important for efficiency and avoiding wasting time on proposals that don't align with their budget. We discuss the mindset shift that occurs when transitioning from low-budget projects to high-ticket clients. Nick emphasizes the importance of constantly reaching out for new business and not relying on one source. He also highlights the value of retaining clients by delivering exceptional value and building strong relationships. Nick shares strategies for marketing and growing a creative business, including utilizing the low hanging fruit strategy and leveraging personal networks. He emphasizes the significance of consistency in building a personal brand and the need to adapt and invest in content that resonates with the audience. Nick also discusses the importance of doing the right thing in business and shares his passion for day trading as a side hustle.
