Ask for Trash to Get Hired (with Biz Student Lisa Doty)
Manage episode 486869746 series 2900488
This inspiring interview with student Lisa Doty will fire you up! Lisa didn’t learn calligraphy from me (she studied under a traditional master calligrapher) but she still found herself stuck and scared to start her business.
Then she joined our Calligraphy Biz Starter Course, and in under a year, everything shifted. She went from hiding her calligraphy in her room to confidently demoing in front of crowds and landing big gigs, like a department store grand opening.
Lisa shares what helped her break through her fear, the “ask for trash” strategy she uses to connect with clients, and how this journey has transformed her confidence—not just as an artist, but as a person.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- How to break out of fear and take the first brave steps to grow your business
- Why investing in yourself wisely can fast-track your success
- How small, consistent action can snowball into huge results
