How to Embody Leonardo DaVinci with Philippa Hughes

In this episode of The Artist Business Plan we sit down with Philippa Hughes to discuss her work as a social sculptor and professional conversation starter. We hit the deep topics: politics, polarization, togetherness, unity. Philippa also gives advice on how to be a well versed in a variety of different fields. When you say yes and have range as a creative, you have many more points of information and connections to draw from. And most importantly, be curious and be interested in others. "People with a broad range of interests and knowledge can be more 'successful' in the business world because then you can pull more sources to think of solutions from. That’s what the business world is all about, finding solutions. The more sources of information you have, the better problem solver you’re going to be.”- Philippa HughesGuest: Philippa P.B.
