Some creative entrepreneurs succeed, while others fail. So, what is it about those founders who reach their goal of making their business not just work but flourish? Much of their success is down to mindset and a set of important qualities.

In this Zoom Dive, we’ll be joined by Jade Tomlin, founder of CreativeAdventur.es, a journal series that tells the stories of the most successful modern founders of our time. She’ll draw on her experience of interviewing growing influential cultural innovators to unpick the qualities they have in common.

Expect to hear:

  • The importance of drive, passion and patience.
  • Why you need a hustle mentality.
  • How being a perfectionist could hinder your progress.
  • Why you should develop a ‘forever learning’ mindset.
  • How, with today’s innovations and technologies, everyone has the power to reinvent themselves and carve out the kind of work they desire and believe in.
  • Why you shouldn’t be afraid to pivot and change direction.
  • The power of saying ‘yes’.
  • Real-life creative entrepreneur success stories.
  • All about Jade’s own journey as a creative director and the founder of CreativeAdventur.es.

Who this Zoom Dive is for:

Creative entrepreneurs at the beginning of their journey who are looking for tips and insights on what it takes to succeed as a founder.
