Diana is a business coach that empowers creative entrepreneurs to ditch the hustle, land their dream clients, and scale to new heights. Formerly a photographer and graphic designer in the hustle of NYC, she's out to debunk the idea of the starving artist and the idea that you have to have a traditional job to make the money you want and have the life you desire. She is currently traveling the world living her nomadic dream. If you really know her, you know she’s a good mix of woo-woo and realistic, is a Gemini to the max, and loves traveling any chance she gets. In this episode, she talks about her path to becoming a digital nomad, how to craft an authentic social media presence, how to establish boundaries and avoid burnout, and the importance of giving yourself permission to wing it.
In order to achieve freedom and live your most authentic life, it is important to face your fears. Living a #fearless life can be daunting at first, but also incredibly rewarding. With the rise of AI technology and remote work, more and more entrepreneurs are shifting into a #digitalnomad lifestyle. Today, Diana Davis, business coach for creative entrepreneurs and host of the podcast Pollen, talks with host Ben Easter about how to live a fearless life, what it’s really like to be a nomadic #entrepreneur, and why establishing boundaries is so vital to preventing #overwhelm and #burnout.
