Episode 8: Hira Sameer Ahmed on discovery through experimentation, building resilience through failing, and art as a healing process
“I think building your own business is a crash course in self-development”
This next episode of The Forest Path Podcast is with Hira Sameer Ahmed, a multi-passionate creative, a designer, an artist and a creative coach.
Hira shares her journey from studying jewellery design at university to a corporate job to building her own business from her creative dreams. We talk about how we don’t need to fit ourselves into one box, how following her curiosity and experimenting is how she discovered what she wanted to do.
We also discuss 100 day art projects, art as a healing process and the day-to-day practices that help her connect with her creativity and keep her grounded. There is so much!
Hira talks so passionately and honestly about the entire journey. If you want a truthful insight behind the scenes of what it means to build to being an artist and business owner, then this is the episode for you.
As always, each guest also shares their personal advice on what to do if you are feeling lost on your own forest path.
If you enjoy listening, please share with a friend or on social media channels. I’d love for more people to be able to find the wisdom in these wonderful conversations.
