How do you stay motivated and creative in an industry that is constantly evolving?
I get to travel a lot I get to meet new people no two days are the same either I am working back to back or I am not doing anything for 2 months and I think it’s downtime that is very important to have a structure because when your self-employed you don’t work every single day therefore for me working out, meditation and having good friends is very important so there is a structure or I am doing back to back flights to Thailand, Melbourne, Istanbul, Dubai, Delhi and so on That keeps me motivated no 2 days are the same.
What do you enjoy doing in your free time when you're not working?
Simple I love to set time with my family and my friends I think a perfect evening would be just watching a good movie eating homely home food love going on long walks doing meditation and my yoga and I am a Big fitness buff I do F45 which is functional training five times a week and I go for like at least 10 km walk every day. I have a lovely dog and we spend a lot of time together but is ready Simple easy happy-go Lucky.
