What an incredible conversation I had with Paul Fairweather, an esteemed creative who gives masterclasses on how we can succeed in business by discovering our creative side. Paul has been a painter, architect, standup comedian, property developer... you name it, he’s done it! The common theme in Paul’s career is his confidence to get ideas out there. He quickly understood how to lose the fear that disempowers people in business every day. This episode of the Arete Podcast is basically our own private masterclass from Paul. By the end of it, you’ll have some great tips on how to lose that fear, and as Paul says, ‘how to show up in your own reality’.
