Manage episode 321169371 series 3278991
Welcome back everyone to my interview series, Intentional and Creative Affluence. This is where I talk to creators and business owners about how they choose to work on what they love while infusing joy into their daily lives. These are my kind of people, the people who follow a heart-Based approach to creating content, marketing with purpose, and connecting with their audience.
My guest today is Asmita Bharadwaj Das. Asmita is a photographer based in Hong Kong where she lives with her husband and two boys. Her background in Pharmacy and HR helps bring a bit of both mind and heart to her passion-photography. A self-proclaimed intuitive ambivert she derives great joy in observing both, people and inanimate objects and bringing out their best using her camera.
In today's episode, we talk about a number of things including:
Why she chose the path of photography for her business- the reasoning behind it, how she learnt to connect with clients and how she's built her reputation in a country that's not native to her own.
🌿The challenges of monetizing a food blog, especially when you're from a different country and learning to pivot in this scenario
🌿The power of making your mistakes and learning from them; plus how she prefers not to call them mistakes
🌿The fact that she's a different person now than two years ago and the incident that triggered it all
🌿The power of the pause and how deeply it impacts her daily life
🌿Her kind tips for those starting their own venture
