13 Lessons To Help You Go Global
from Crea8torium
Today on Crea8torium, we sit down with award-winning writer and storyteller Nicole Asinugo, whose work spans film, global exhibitions, and cultural spectacles—from Expo 2020 Dubai to Global Citizen. Her stories traverse continents and mediums, ranging from the blockbuster Living in Bondage to 1001 Seasons of Elie Saab, the largest fashion show ever staged in the Middle East. In this episode, we explore how she creates from a place of deep honesty, intuition, and creative abundance. Nicole shares what it’s like to walk into global rooms as an African storyteller, how she stays grounded when failure hits, and why she chooses to keep creating even when the road gets loud or lonely.CHAPTERS00:00 Introduction 00:02:00 Global Mindset00:06:20 Limiting Mindsets00:07:52 Developing Audacity00:10:20 Self Doubt 00:18:09 Fear Of Loosing Self 00:19:35 Structured Creativity 00:21:24 Idea Selection00:23:22 Developing Yourself00:27:51 Storytelling Journey00:29:33 Best Part Of Storytelling 00:30:44 On Purpose00:33:20 Getting Ideas 00:38:08 Choosing What To Share00:42:14 Being A Lone Wolf 00:45:51 When To Say Yes00:49:05 Soul vs Skill00:49:53 Infinite Creativity 00:51:38 Creative Maxing 00:58:58 Switching Off01:03:18 Failure & Success01:07:14 Confidence 01:10:19 Labelling Yourself01:17:53 Untapped Paths01:23:04 Untold Stories01:27:51 African Creatives01:32:40 Elie Saab Gig01:41:16 Earning As A Writer01:44:13 Nicole Rewrites Salem’s StoryCONNECT WITH NICOLEWebsite: https://tinyurl.com/3ur7x67cInstagram: https://tinyurl.com/2ftbauxtCREA8TORIUM CIRCLE: If this content sparked something in you, Crea8torium Circle is where you build on it.It's our private membership for creators ready to apply what they’re learning, get sharper guidance, and build alongside people operating with real commitment.Join us here: https://crea8torium.com/circle/CATCH OUR EPISODES ON:YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/crea8toriumyoutubeSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/crea8toriumsptfyApple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/crea8toriumappleSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONShttps://crea8torium.com/ask/JOIN OUR COMMUNITYInstagram: https://tinyurl.com/crea8toriumigTikTok: https://tinyurl.com/crea8toriumtkSubstack: https://tinyurl.com/crea8sstack Hosted on Acast.
