What does it mean to do less while following your passions? This week I'm talking to creative coach and workshop facilitator Anne Ditmeyer about what work looks like for her. Anne is American by birth and French by hard work. Pulling inspiration from her design background, she guides people through creative experiences—which includes mapping on bananas—to get participants out of their head and looking at the world in new ways. In this conversation, we look at the world in new ways through the lens of creativity & work. Together we explore– Anne's journey from designer to creative coach How her blog & French bureaucracy inspired her career path The power of doing less The discomfort of failure and success If you enjoy our conversation, please subscribe, rate & review the podcast wherever you listen.

A lot of the work we do today doesn't much look like “work.” The divide between work-life and life-life is flexible and porous. So what does that mean for the way we spend our time? Or how we earn a living? In this episode, I share designer, coach, and consultant Anne Ditmeyer's story of rethinking how she works thanks to a big move to Paris. And, I argue that perhaps we need a radically different way of thinking about what work is—instead of a better “work-life balance.”Resources: Learn more about Anne Ditmeyer Lost In Work, by Amelia Horgan Episode 349 with Brittany Berger This episode is also available in essay form.★ Support this podcast ★

George Bush famously claimed that the French don't have a word for entrepreneur, and while we all laughed at the time, there may have been a kernel of truth to what he said! To discuss why entrepreneurship is a fairly foreign concept to most French people, Emily is joined by multi-passionate creative Anne Ditmeyer. She's here to talk about why this word may have French origins but remains foreign to many French people.https://www.pret-a-voyager.com/2018/12/everything-i-learned-the-hard-way-about-running-a-business-in-france/Find Anne Ditmeyer:https://www.anneditmeyer.com/https://www.instagram.com/pretavoyager/?hl=enhttps://twitter.com/pretavoyagerFind Us OnlineWebsite: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrenchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradioInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/Credits- Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.comProducer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.comMusic CreditsÉdith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix)
Still Loading: A podcast all about Leadership for the Digital Age
This weeks guest is the fantastic Anne Ditmeyer, a woman who wears many hats, some may call her a “slasher” – designer/writer/traveler/consultant/coach. Others would say she has a portfolio career or even a multi-passionate entrepreneur. One thing is for certain she is not afraid to write her own rules. An American living in France, Anne runs the hugely successful blog Prêt a Voyager (translation: ready to travel; mantra: travel is not where you go, but how you see the world), that she founded in 2007 and because of it, she haven't applied for a job in 10+ years. This blog is the fusion of travel and human connection and a love for Paris. During lockdown she launched her Write Your Own Rules workshop, and charted a new trajectory in her work and her 3-month workshop + community Mapping Your Path. She has worked with incredible clients around the world including Moët Hennessy, Louis Vuitton, Airbnb, IDEO, SignSalad, The American University of Paris, Parsons Paris, Design*Sponge, and Adobe. No two projects are ever the same. One day she may be extracting UX insights from global user research, and another writing a storyboard for a video script, presenting a workshop on storytelling, mentoring creative talent, interviewing someone doing inspiring work, or giving a tour of Paris to a team. In this episode we talk about the power of creativity, how you can start to map your own path to create the life of your dreams, how a banana can be a great map and Anne shares her story about her love of gnomes (these ceramic figures that we have in gardens in the UK and around Europe). Anne is a brilliant guest with so much to share from her experiences and her hope is that she can help others along their journey (even if it's messy and not always straight forward.) Enjoy!

This week, I'm in conversation with creative coach, explorer, educator, designer, and Inner Circler Anne Ditmeyer. Listen in to hear us talk about being uncool, giving yourself permission to be ridiculous, why getting lost is a good thing, what happens when you keep saying yes to opportunity, why you're allowed to seek out joy even during a pandemic, and the power of using creativity to solve problems. We also talk about her experience in the Inner Circle (applications are now open!), so if you're curious about what's available there, have a listen! What She Said: "I want to be as uncool as possible." “Nobody acknowledges how much time content takes to create”. "What are those stories that aren't told?" "Make it human." “The value comes from people who are not like us.” “Get lost on purpose; there are multiple ways to reach a destination.” "Drawing on a banana is the new standard." "Be ridiculous."

Today, we’ve got the last episode in a three-part series with designer, writer, and educator Anne Ditmeyer. If you haven’t listened to the last two week’s worth of episodes, please do so before wrapping up the series with this episode. In the interview, Anne and I talk about the magic of using online tools to make offline connections and how that’s been showing up in her work lately. She share’s the truth behind what we all see online these days, why she thinks work should be much more playful than it is now, and some of the best ways she’s been able to build relationships that cross the online/offline barrier.

Today, I’m back with the second in a three-part series with designer, writer, and educator Anne Ditmeyer. If you haven’t listened to last week’s episode, please do that first! In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Anne all about the ebbs and flows that come with working for yourself. She goes into how she handles the emotional roller coaster that can come from having too little or, in her case, too much work coming her way. She also offers advice on how to present your work if you tend to do many different types of things and why she doesn’t think she’d be very good at (or happy with) having a full-time job.

Today's show is the first in a new three-part series with designer, writer, and educator Anne Ditmeyer. In 2013 I interviewed Anne for Creating Your Own Path before it was a podcast. In the episode, I’m talking with Anne about how she has been able to successfully build a creatively fulfilling business across many different mediums and platforms. She chats about how living in France, and the constraints it put on her work situation, ultimately made her more creative, how she decides what platforms to use to showcase and provide access to her work, and why she’s never wanted to blog for a living — even though her blog is well-known and established.

This week’s guest comes to us all the way from Paris. Anne Ditmeyer of Pret A Voyager talks about life in Paris and tips us off on the best way to go about living there for a short period of time. Later, Anne and Grace compare and contrast the ways in which Americans and French people use social media. This program has been sponsored by Of A Kind. “I think it makes me richer to have all of these different experiences to draw from.” [10:20] “It’s really just about jumping on opportunities and taking advantage of things.” [26:20] –Anne Ditmeyer on After The Jump
