Self-compassion isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you consider living or working in a way that questions the status quo, and yet throughout this conversation, Sophie and I kept coming back to that very idea. More and more, we’re being given examples that living by what’s already been written, might not actually be the best way for us. But how often do we consider that compassion towards ourselves is the missing piece in making our new, experimental and against the grain lifestyles work? Sophie is a trained life coach who helps kindhearted, creative humans believe in themselves so they can live the life they truly want. She also runs a successful personal branding photography business, alongside mentoring fellow photographers to build a business that works for them. She splits her year between her two passions and it totally fascinates and inspires me, watching her make this unconventional business model a complete success. Oh, and listen out for the little hello from her sweet rescue dog!
