The Work Behind the Work | Creative Director, Meg Dunning

Meg brings a unique perspective shaped by an unexpected path, from social services to leading creative direction and mentoring entrepreneurs. She has oversaw 600 businesses in downtown Guelph, gaining a deep understanding of people, systems, and what makes something truly connect.At the core of Meg’s work is one belief: relationships matter. She leans into the messy middle, the raw, unpolished process of growth, both in business and in life. Whether she’s collaborating with female entrepreneurs or stepping into multiple roles for her clients, she focuses on building trust, clarity, and momentum.In this conversation, Meg shares her transition out of an 11-year career, her commitment to structure and systems, and why your voice matters more than ever in a world increasingly shaped by AI.Her philosophy is simple but powerful: practice makes progress. Create before you consume. Show up, challenge yourself, and play the long game.This is a conversation about connection, courage, and finding your voice, again and again.Meg https://www.instagram.com/megdunningcreative/Follow Open Shutter for future show announcements!https://www.instagram.com/openshutteryoutube/like and subscribe:)
