Whether you realize it or not, you are a creator—and in today's world, embracing that identity is non-negotiable if you want to build a thriving business.In this episode of Passionate & Prosperous, I'm breaking down why every coach, expert, and service provider needs to step into their creative power—not just in the traditional “artistic” sense, but in how you communicate, share your message, and create offers that attract the right clients.Right now, we are living in what's known as the Creator Economy, where visibility, impact, and success come from your ability to create content, messaging, and experiences that connect with your audience. Yet so many business owners hold themselves back by saying things like:“I'm not creative.”“I don't know how to come up with content.”“I just want to do my work—I don't want to be a marketer.”But here's the truth: If you want people to find you, trust you, and ultimately invest in your services, you have to create. Whether it's messaging, offers, workshops, or free content, you need to turn your expertise into something tangible that your audience can experience.Inside This Episode, You'll Learn:Why every entrepreneur is part of the Creator Economy (whether you like it or not!)How to shift your mindset from “I'm not creative” to “I create valuable things every day”The biggest mistake coaches & service providers make when trying to market themselvesHow to create content & messaging that attracts and converts clientsThe role of storytelling and authenticity in making your work stand outWhy being a creator doesn't mean being on social media 24/7 (and what to focus on instead!)If you've been feeling frustrated by content creation, marketing, or putting yourself out there—this episode will completely shift how you see your role as a business owner.Get Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast

Yes to bullet points!Most photographers spend their time marketing in all the usual (free) ways—posting on social media, tweaking their SEO, and waiting for word-of-mouth referrals to kick in. And while all of those can work, they also take time... often a lot of it! But what if you could get your business in front of people right when they're searching for a photographer?That's exactly what Google Ads do. Unlike social media ads that interrupt people mid-scroll, Google Ads only show up when someone is actively looking to book a photographer. And according to today's guest, Lindsay Herkert, that small but powerful shift has completely transformed her business.In this episode, Lindsay breaks down:Why Google Ads are so underused in the photography industry (and why that's a huge advantage for you)How she spends just $300/month and books out her calendar with dream clientsThe 3-part system she uses to attract, convert, and keep clients coming backSimple changes to your website that make your ads way more effectiveIf you've ever wished for a way to bring in clients without constant hustling, this episode is a must-listen.Visit Lindsay's website and Google Ads resourcesAccess Lindsay's mini course and guide for photographersNew around here?

From his ‘Orgasm Portraits' for Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac to shooting the likes of Harry Styles, Tilda Swinton, Willem Dafoe and Kirsten Dunst (to name a few), Danish-born Casper Sejersen is known for creating iconic visuals for brands including Alexander McQueen, Gucci and Burberry, and editorial platforms such as Dazed, and Beauty Papers… as well as publishing zines, directing a TV series, and that's just for starters!In this episode, we journey into his psycho-visceral world, as he shares how he found his photographic feet in commercial photography before transitioning into fashion editorial, cinema and fine art, where he found creative freedom. You'll also hear about the poetry and pianist that inspires him, the deeply personal reason why he began taking more risks, and how – with meticulous preparation and by allowing them to share in his artistic vision – he gets the best out of his creative collaborators – both behind and in front of his lens.“When I shoot Cate Blanchett with, you know, a banana, she's still wearing Gucci. And for me, that kind of cultural icon with the reference to Andy Warhol's Velvet Underground cover — that's fashion to me”Link to references from this episode include:Images Casper curated for this episode here – or for those listening on platforms (other than Spotify), you will find the images appearing on your phone's lock screen as we discuss them. Watch Tilda Swinton recite All Kinds of Love,  the Claes Oldenburg poem that inspired Casper for his Numéro China shoot with the actor.
