Episode 5: Interview with artist Tomas Vagner on going after your dream, getting rid of limiting beliefs, staying productive and the importance of community and talking about what you do.
In this episode, I talk to Tomas Vagner, Swedish artist who creates abstract, over-sized paintings with a style that he himself describes as raw and powerful.
Before dedicating himself to his art full-time, Tomas worked internationally with advertising, graphic design and illustrations. For many years, being an artist remained just a dream for Tomas. But 1,5 years ago, something shifted, and he made the decision to commit fully to his art.
We talk about what holds us back when it comes to going after what we really want, and what happens when we make a conscious decision to take our dreams seriously. Tomas tells us about how the shift from employee to artist has affected him. He also shares his thoughts on how to stay creatively productive and the importance of finding habits that work for you.
Like most business owners, Tomas is on a continuous path towards refining his ideal client, his price strategy and his communication. He shares openly how old, limiting beliefs can still affect him, and what he does to move past them. Being part of a community with like-minded artists is key for staying motivated and productive, says Tomas. He encourages creative entrepreneurs to dare to talk to others about what they do. Not only is it key for marketing and selling your art, it’s also vital for building your confidence.

Episode 4: Interview with social entrepreneur and educational revolutionary, Rebecka Koritz, on the importance of taking on risk, listening to the needs of your audience and staying authentic.
In this episode, I talk to Rebecka Koritz, founder of multiple alternative schools in Mexico, unschooling mom and educational activist who always represents the children’s perspective. Rebecka is driven by a vision of a society free from conflict and competition, where we can all learn to know ourselves and contribute with the unique gifts that we have to offer this world.
Rebecka bases her work on the belief that children are fully capable individuals who can and want to guide their own development. Her educational centers are based on the principle of self-directed learning, and today, Rebecka has left the day-to-day running of those centers to provide content that supports a worldwide audience in becoming the parents that their children need for them to be.
We talk about the importance of taking on risk; what the challenging consequences can be of doing so; and how Rebecka has managed those. She also shares her best tips for getting people to embrace your vision and for building a strong community. We also get to take part of her thoughts on how to use communication to grow your business; and how to manage international teams and clients.
