Career transitions are often bumpy. New processes, different people, and all the energy that goes into building the skills, network and momentum- no wonder why the comfort of a stable career is prevents many people from pursuing their calling. Change isn't easy. Now imagine you're a working attorney with a promising future and more than a decade of education, testing, and training to get to where you are. That's the scenario my guest on the show today, Maria Brito found herself in. She recalls, "For the years I was an attorney, it was like I had a fake identity." It was clear that law was not her calling. Fast forward to today's episode, and Maria is now an award-winning contemporary art advisor, author, and curator. She has written for publications such as Entrepreneur, Huffington Post, Elle, Forbes...  the list goes on. Complex Magazine named Maria one of the Top 20 Power Players in the Art World. She now teaches creativity courses in companies and, in 2019, she launched “Jumpstart”, an online program on creativity for entrepreneurs based on years of research and observation in both the areas of business and art. The episode is filled with advice for making a career transition, ideas for jumpstarting your creativity and explores how a lack of experience can be an advantage. Highlights from the show: While educating clients and creating content isn't directly revenue-generating, Maria describes how a less transactional approach to the art business has been a key component of her success. Leaving a legacy and being a pioneer: "Anyone can be a pioneer of something if only they let their ideas out, and only if they are willing to execute them." Creativity is a series of habits, actions and activities. It's not some mystical flow state. How NFTs and blockchain tech is impacting the conventional art world (there is no longer a clear boundary between digital and physical art) Taking calculated risks to pursue passion Being willing to shift Finding gold at the intersection of two or more distinct domains There is so much goodness to unpack from Maria.  Enjoy!

How Creativity Rules the World: The Art and Business of Turning Your Ideas into Gold by Maria Brito About the Book: Learn to make creativity work for your career. Maria Brito illustrates how creativity is merely a series of habits, actions, and attitudes that anyone can develop—regardless of who you are or what you do. There has never been a more crucial time than now to develop your creativity and your ability to innovate. Coming up with original ideas of value is today's most precious skill. Contrary to a myth that has been unfairly perpetuated, creativity can be taught and learned by anyone. How Creativity Rules the World builds the case for creativity as an inexhaustible resource available to everyone and proves that it is the key to thriving in the business world and beyond. With revealing studies and stories spanning business and art, How Creativity Rules The World is a deep dive into history, culture, psychology, science, and entrepreneurship; breaking down and analyzing the elements used by some of the most creative minds throughout the last 600 years. Maria Brito discovered the power of creativity when she transitioned from being an unhappy Harvard-trained corporate lawyer to a thriving entrepreneur and innovator in the art world. She flipped the barrenness around her to emerge as one of the most well-known disruptors in the art world. With this book, you will learn how to: Overcome limiting thoughts and dispel myths about creativity. Unleash creativity through concrete data, historical passages, and examples of modern entrepreneurship. Develop timeless habits, principles, and tools that worked six centuries ago and continue to work today. Employ creativity in an everyday context to produce extraordinary results. After applying the principles in How Creativity Rules the World to her own business, she started teaching them to hundreds of people, ranging from entrepreneurs to artists to CEOs. As evidenced by her students' creative successes, Maria knows that this timeless guide will allow others to strike gold with their ideas.

BUSINESS & THOUGHT LEADER EDITION   It's not uncommon to stare blankly at the screen of your computer at work and wonder how you got there. You might have gotten that job through an employment agency or you might have been employed by that company since your graduation.  It's likely that you settled down because it was convenient, stable, and offered some decent benefits, no matter what the circumstances are.   Sadly, that level of comfort and security can cause us to neglect our past plans and passions.    If you're certain that you dream of pursuing a different career path and leave Corporate America for good, then it's time to take a huge leap of faith and pursue your passion. Whether that be a business or a different career field altogether, trust your gut and chase your dreams.   That is what Maria Brito did, and now she's a CEO, an award-winning New York-based contemporary art advisor, author, and curator who has been featured in Complex Magazine as one of the 20 Power Players in the Art World she was named by ARTNEWS as one of the visionaries who gets to shape the art world.    Join us as Maria shares her experience as a lawyer and eventually leaving and pursuing her passion for art, how she overcame tough moments in building her business, and how NFTs are used for art.

Art is inspiring in its own right, but did you know that it can also promote social justice? How is that so, and how can you be a part of this movement? What does the future of art look like? We spoke with art advisor Maria Brito on our new podcast, and it was one of our most inspiring and informative episodes yet. Maria Brito is an award-winning New York-based contemporary art advisor, author, and curator. A Harvard graduate, originally from Venezuela, her first monograph “Out There” was the recipient of the Best Book Awards in both the Art and Design Categories. In 2015, Brito was selected by Complex Magazine as one of the 20 Power Players in the Art World, and in 2020, she was named by ARTNEWS as one of the visionaries who gets to shape the art world. She has written for publications such as Entrepreneur, Huffington Post, Elle, and Forbes. For several years, Maria has taught her creativity course in companies and, in 2019, she launched “Jumpstart,” an online program on creativity for entrepreneurs based on years of research and observation in both the areas of business and art. Passionate about art since her childhood, Maria now hosts her own PBS TV art/social issues show The "C" Files with Maria Brito.To start our discussion, we get to know about Maria's journey from being a corporate attorney to an art counselor. She describes how her conservative, traditional Venezuelan family pushed her into a "good" career, hence going into law. But it wasn't a fulfilling career path for Maria, and after about a decade of working as an attorney, she decided it was time to pursue something she truly cared about and was passionate about. That led her to working as an art advisor. As she explains, you can still do important things and make a difference in your own way, even if it's not the traditional paths like becoming a doctor or lawyer. Indeed, the arts can make the biggest difference to a wide variety of people.For many, becoming artistic is limited by a belief that they're not creative. However, Maria believes that creativity can be taught. How can people teach and learn creativity? Maria offers many ideas here, but starts by examining why people feel they're not creative. In reality, we all start off creative - kids are very imaginative and have a certain fearlessness about exploring ideas. But we unlearn creativity as we age out of childhood. Maria shares one example: How many uses for a paperclip can you think of? You might think of 10 or 20, but kids can think of way more. Being creative isn't just about art; it's also about thinking outside the box and coming up with ideas. If we can recover our childlike wonder and minimize distractions (put away those phones!), we can retrain our minds to be creative. To learn more about Maria Brito, visit her official website as well as her blog.
