Chatting about creativity, criticism, choosing trust over fear, and the courage to sit in stillness with Pia Mailhot-Leichter

from The Soul Horizon

In this episode, I interview Pia Mailhot-Leichter. Pia is a creative partner, published author, certified coach, and entrepreneur. Her path has been anything but ordinary: a recovering nomad, she’s reported as a journalist in Sri Lanka, graduated summa cum laude from NYU, and worked as an award-winning creative director for some of the biggest brands in the world. Now, as the founder of Kollektiv Studio, she’s uniquely positioned to co-create wild visions and ventures. She recently published Welcome to the Creative Club, a book that challenges everything people thought they knew about creativity. Praised by Google's Global Head of Creative & Innovation as "life-changing" and by iconic fashion designer Betsey Johnson as "a wild ride," this part-memoir, part-guide invites readers to make life their biggest art project and reclaim their creative power.Get a copy of her book: On Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Welcome-Creative-Club-Biggest-Project/dp/B0DPJ8L4NM/ref=sr_1_1On Bookshop.org: https://bookshop.org/p/books/welcome-to-the-creative-club-make-life-your-biggest-art-project-pia-mailhot-leichter/22087658And the audiobook: https://www.audible.com/pd/Welcome-to-the-Creative-Club-Audiobook/B0F6VZCWT4 Connect on social: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pialeichter/https://www.instagram.com/pia.leichter/https://substack.com/@pialeichter   More about her work: https://kollektiv.studio/Book a chemistry call: https://calendly.com/kollektivstudio/coaching-exploration-callConnect through weekly field notes: https://kollektiv.studio/newsletter Become a member of The Soul Horizon community (or give a one-time donation) to support the podcast.
