S05 E07: Chloé Templeman - Sometimes being you is enough

Back with another banger! In this episode, Sheps sits down with Chloé Templeman – Executive Creative Director at Pearlfisher.This one’s a special conversation. I sat down with Chloe to talk about the journey behind the title — the grit, the doubts, the pivots, and the moments that quietly shape who you become.We start right at the beginning — her early curiosity as a kid, always making, always questioning, always looking at the world a little differently. Her path into the industry wasn’t the neat, traditional route. It took determination, resilience, and a proper belief in herself when things weren’t always going her way.From finding her feet across different agencies to facing the tougher realities of the industry, Chloe shares the honest side of the journey — the setbacks, the pressure, and the moments where she had to dig deep and keep going.But at the heart of this conversation is something bigger.It’s about owning the room.Backing yourself.Learning that the thing that makes you different is actually your strength.We talk about confidence, career moves, knowing when it’s time to grow, and having the courage to step into new challenges — even when it feels uncomfortable.The conversation also gets into transformation and reinvention — what it really takes to lead through uncertainty, to stay authentic in senior leadership, and to help a creative business reconnect with who it truly is.There’s an honest look at the turbulence our industry’s facing right now too — and what it means to navigate change without losing your voice along the way.This episode is about resilience.About remembering who you are.And about building a career that feels true to you — not just impressive on paper.
