When he was 21 he got to visit South Africa and go to the Kruger park. On his first day he saw a lion by the side of the road. David has been back to Africa many times since then. David commercially has been working with a range of businesses doing all sorts of different work. But he now wants a change and he is still working out exactly how the wildlife photography will become part of his business. He is thinking about setting up retreats on safari in Africa. David says on safari you are always living in the moment, even if you can't see any animals at that time. He says it is very relaxing and helps people live in the moment. Marcus says that you can capture wildlife photography here in the UK. David agrees and says that you can create a wildlife haven in your garden by simply setting up a bird feeder. You can extend that more by having a log nearby so the birds use the log as a perch near the feeders, which can make for great shots. It is also easy just to get out on any day and see what wildlife you found. It could simply be some trees and other plants.   Sam suggests spending time photographing birds on the feeder will help photographers develop their skills at photographing animals. David fully agrees with this and says we should fully practice all the photography we do. He says he isn't surprised that those that win Wildlife photographer of the year spend a very long time with the wildlife. Marcus points out that one winner of this was an image of a fox taken in the UK. David explains that also with wildlife you need to work with what turns up, rather than what you planned. Wildlife doesn't always do as you planned. Standing still and waiting is also good. Waiting and observing and then the great shots will often appear.   Marcus asks what it's like to be on safari with David. He says it's almost impossible to explain what it's like to be on a safari vehicle in Africa first thing in the morning. The sunsets and sunrises are always amazing. There is then the experience of being out in the middle of no-where. There is also the not knowing what could be around the next corner. Then suddenly you see your first animal. Seeing the big cats it is so exciting in the wild. Sam says it's also about the animals being so big and potentially so dangerous to you. Sam points out that there are many budgets for safari and it doesn't have to be really expensive. David says that's true and the price often adds extra “bells and whistles”. He says the wildlife doesn't go to the luxury lodge's vehicle first!

Growing up in North Carolina, in order to be as enthused about snowboarding as I was living in Raleigh, one resorted to VHS & DVD's to get stoked. Some of you may be very familiar with this approach and even perhaps with some of the production companies such as Standard Films and Mack Dawg Productions. Well, those were great, but it was a small crew which made up Robot Food that absolutely had me watching videos over and over and among that crew was Jussi Oksanen.Jussi was always one of a handful of my favorite riders to watch year after year - his style was fun, his creativity was clear, and I truly believe Robot Food wouldn't have been the same without him. Long story short, in combination of Instagram DM's and our mutual friend Matt, we set up a time to record, and I'm thrilled to share it with you today.Though retired from snowboarding, Jussi is still very much outdoors, though behind the camera as a commercial photographer producing images with the same sort of stoke-inducing outcomes. We chat cars, his snow career, cycling, of course watches, and I'll have you know Jussi's a real one. I hope you enjoy it. STANDARD H https://standard-h.com/ @standardh_ Jussi Oksanen @jussioksanen

You've probably heard the old adage, "A picture is worth a thousand words." Well, if that's the case, Christopher Bryan might just be the ultimate storyteller. In this episode, I sit down with talented Commercial Photographer, Christopher Bryan, who has worked with a variety of clients, including ones from Forbes Global Top Ten. He shares his background, knowledge and some tips to consider when taking a headshot (you might be surprised by what he says!). He also lets us in on a nonprofit project that he's bringing to Tulsa that will provide keepsake portraits for people in need.  As you'll learn, he's been a part of the team in the past and has seen the impact first-hand of what the photos provide to the people who are the recipients. In fact, you'll hear a sweet story about one of the people who had her portrait taken.

“The secret to life is to put yourself in the right lighting. For some, it's a Broadway spotlight; for others, a lamplit desk. Use your natural powers -- of persistence, concentration, and insight -- to do work you love and work that matters. Solve problems. make art, think deeply.” ~ Susan Cain Guest Introduction:  Welcome to another episode of Exploring the Seasons of Life, a podcast for women with a big heart on a spiritual journey. Self-love, well-being and mindset are at the heart of our conversations. Because once you change the inside, the outside will begin to change as well. I'm your host Cindy MacMillan and I'm so grateful that you tuned in today; it means a lot to me. If you love this conversation and you want to continue it or want to share your thoughts, your takeaways, or just any aha's that come up…come on over to Instagram. That is where I spend most of my time when it comes to social media. I'm @cindy.macmillan on Instagram. Make sure you're following me. Say hello. I'd love to hear from you. It's my great pleasure to introduce you to Tanya Rex. Tanya Rex is a Commercial Photographer and Intuitive Guide and Whole Healing Practitioner. She currently guides successful women, who have lost themselves in the daily grind, to rebalance and find their truth through unconditional self-love. Her passion is working with teens and she will be shifting over to this solely and launching an 8 week course for teens in a few weeks. Here's a glimpse of our conversation: Tanya, I'm SUPER excited you are here. 3:15 One night as I was going to bed, I had this feeling that I had to help teenagers through photography, to find themselves through photography. And I didn't know how I was going to do it. But I thought I'll sleep on it. And tomorrow morning, I'll figure it out. And by the time I woke up the next morning, I had the whole plan in my head. 4:29 I started connecting with teenagers around the world, the whole project started to come together. And as I mentioned, I didn't really think about the logistics and especially since the world had kind of shut down. It wasn't always that easy to get cameras to refugee camps in Sudan or into India that was under complete lockdown for almost a year. But somehow, I managed to get to, I think it was 18 or 20 countries. 8:57 The first roll of film that I got back was from a 12-year-old boy who lived in Belarus. And one of the first images that he took was of his mother and sister lying in a cast iron bath that was in a field and it was being heated by a fire from underneath. And the way that he just captured life and innocence and his story, you know, his vision, what he saw was unbelievable. 17:41 I think I've had three seasons of life so far. And they have nothing to do with my age, or anything like that. It's more around, I guess, spirituality. I grew up in a very religious family and as a teen, I started asking questions, and I didn't really find answers. So, I would say that I have walked away from religion and rather accepted morality as my way of being so The Ten Commandments gave me a great background for what I thought good morals were. And now I'm in a space of spirituality and it just feels more all-encompassing, and more wholesome, if I can say that, for me personally. 26:18  I'm sure it comes as no surprise, since what I've been talking about is photography that the literal filters that so many people are using on various social media platforms are causing big issues with self-perception, self-image and self-esteem. And many people are only seeing a filtered and edited version of other people's lives, that's hard to live up to if you feel that you need to keep up with the Joneses. 34:57 I would love for listeners to be able to see the value of being themselves, of speaking their truth and of living in their own authenticity, however that looks. Because, as I mentioned before, I think so often we allow our ego to get in the way. And we only want to show certain parts of it, of our lives. But when we start to speak our truth and living our authenticity, it doesn't matter what anyone else is doing, once you realize the beauty of who you are, and you're able to shine past all of the limitations that you might feel that you have, or insecurities, or doubts and fears that you feel that you might have. 40:00 My website is SoulTribeCoaching.com.  You can find Tanya Rex at: Facebook Website IF YOU LOVED THIS EPISODE WITH TANYA REX YOU'LL ALSO LOVE THE CONVERSATIONS I HAD WITH: Niki Svara on Self-Forgiveness Cornelia Gilbert on Boundaries and Integrity Through the Lens of Yoga and Mindfulness with Elizabeth Savage Grief and Big Love in the Adoption Journey with Kim Noeth  I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for joining Tanya Rex and myself this week on Exploring the Seasons of Life podcast.

This week's Misfit Entrepreneur is Jay Haleem Washington. Jay went from working for $8.00 an hour at the Hampton Inn to earning 6 figures as a Commercial Photographer in just a few years. He was able to accomplish all this while being a convicted felon. While working for $8.00 an hour he developed his mantra #IWon'tStarve, which was the catalyst for him to leave his job after only one year. he has become pardoned, and now is a best-selling author 4 times over and motivational speaker. Over his career, he's been able to work with the following international brands, Nike, Save The Children Foundation, NFL, Amtrak, and The WNBA. He focuses on strategic development of public sector business, management and administration of client contracts, and client protection via compliance oversight, resulting in growth through government contracting. But, it's not so much what Jay does that was the reason I asked him to come on the show as much as it was his message of “I won't Starve” and how he persisted through to success. www.Iwontstarve.com ​ www.JHaleem.com Jay says it was a long journey. He was raised in a crazy home in New Jersey with people on drugs, etc. He was raised by his grandmother and was on the streets early on in life. He got into a lot of trouble but was also a great student. He was smart but using it for the wrong things. He graduated with honors from college, but also committed a white-collar crime that was felony trying to make money in college. After graduating, he was unable to get a job because of his record, so entrepreneurship was the answer. He started a successful cleaning business and did well, but during the 2008 recession, his wife lost her job on Capitol Hill, and he sold the business moving back down south to focus on raising their kids. He took an $8 job to have something, but new he could do much better and less than a year later started his commercial photography business. An in a short time the business climbed into 6-figures and then grew tremendously as he got into doing government contract work. He then started helping other minority businesses get approved for contracts and has now helped/consulted for over 600 helping them get contracts. He then went on to write his books, start speaking, etc. What are some of the success principles you've learned to succeed in business? Early on, it is all about heart and having the guts to do what needs to be done. You must personally develop. You can learn to do anything, and you must constantly learn. You must learn about the different types of people and how to work with them. You have to take your skill set and match it with others to create a beautiful picture. Perseverance. Building a business requires flexibility, endurance, and going through the challenges, learning curve, and progression of building a business. Talk to us about being persistent and what you learned about keeping going to succeed… Jay has seen a lot of people quit and decided it would not be him. Knowing he had good skillsets that no one could take away from him, that he could learn, and he was willing to hustle and do what was needed to succeed kept him going. Having children gave him the why he needed to continue driving forward. He also had seen what happened to people when they gave up and did not want that. Tell us about I Won't Starve. What does it mean? It came about from spending a lot of time being judged. Having to pay back 6-figures for his felony and the other costs made him have to hustle and find a way. When he made the decision to leave the $8/hr job, he basically said, “Screw it. I won't starve.” He embodied and started preaching it to anyone who would listen and it resonated. “The platform you leap from is more important that the platform you land on.” If you build the right platform, you won't starve! You have a workshop called UWon't Starve based on 5 principles, take us through them… #1: Hustle while you work. Strive to constantly learn from all those around and look for what you can use to help you succeed. Develop your skills. This works well if you are building a business on the side while working a job. #2: Market research. People jump into businesses all the time without understanding the market and how to succeed in it. Who needs your service? Where are they? How often are they buying? And so on. Take the time to have a decent understanding of the market before you leap. Start where you are, but be smart about it. #3: Be the one selling the cheese. This is metaphor. If you go to a wine festival, you will see some people like white wine and buy that, others buy only read, but both customers like to have cheese with their wine. Be the one selling the cheese, because then you get both customers instead of just one. Is your solution, the cheese? #4 and #5: Use strategic partnerships and JV's to grow. Partnerships are a great way to grow because you can create scenarios where 1 + 1 = 3. You both can benefit in a larger way that just on your own. Talk to us more about how to create great partnerships… We have to watch our egos are they can stop us from creating great partnerships. We can only get so far on our own. What does your business do that can complement other business's needs? What are you willing to do that other businesses are not? How can you help others become more successful? The more you help others get what they want, you will find you will get what you want and more. Partnerships are a business strategy and should be treated and planned for as such. What are some of the most consistent challenges you see entrepreneurs have and how do you help them overcome them? In the government contract space, it is paperwork and time. There is a lot of hoops to jump through and they don't move fast. You have to find your way into their system and once you get in, you are in good shape. But, you have to break through that barrier to get your first contract. It is networking and getting in front of the right people. Additionally, you need to build the right systems and teams in your business, so you can focus on the bigger picture and work on the business – not in it. Businesses are like a baby. At some point most people have to get a babysitter or day care of their baby so they can go to work. That is what it is like when you build systems and a team – they are the babysitter for your business, so you can truly go to work on it. Any other advice from your journey? Partner and teaming is the name of the game. Entrepreneurship is tough, so find others going through the same type of journey and network with them. Help each other. If it makes to have a partner in your business, do it.   Best Quote: The platform you leap from is more important that the platform you land on...   Jay's Misfit 3: You don't have as much time as you think, so go hard early going after what you want. Find people that will support you whole-heartedly. People with support systems go so much further in life than those that don't. Get your Amen Corner! Be unapologetically authentic. It hurts being someone else. Be you. Show Sponsors: Benchmark Email (Free account): www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com/Benchmark 5 Minute Journal: www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com/Journal

I was so excited to interview Erica, who is a Commercial Photographer! She launched her business seven short months ago, and she, like many creative businesses, are still trying to figure things out and put the pieces together. She started as a prop stylist, dominated the niche and now and it's her primary expertise. Taking the leap to branch on her own, her experiences, the opportunities that she has worked for and her vision of what makes a commercial photographer is a breath of fresh air. She is the real deal, and a woman many photographers should look up to, or any entrepreneur just starting out!
