The Business of Creativity with Aura McKay | RR250
Manage episode 407725342 series 2521398
My guest today has me buzzing with anticipation. I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Aura McKay - the visionary behind Business of Creativity, an award-winning photographer, and a dynamic business coach. Aura brings a unique blend of passion and expertise to the table.
In this episode, she takes us on a journey, sharing anecdotes from her unconventional upbringing in the 60s and the impactful lessons from her creative parents - her remarkable story seamlessly weaves together creativity, relationships, and business brilliance. Listen as we explore the struggles creatives face, challenge myths about the starving artist, and discover practical tools like the elusive "magic unicorn spreadsheet."
I’m thrilled we got to explore Aura McKay's world, and I bet you were as hooked on her wisdom as I was - it’s all happening right here on this episode.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How parents' creativity shapes their children's perspectives
- About the impact of external pressure and expectations on creatives
- Techniques for helping creatives overcome challenges and finding success in their businesses
- How procrastination is a symptom, not a problem
- How to manage time and relationships in a service-based industry

A little about me:
I began my career as a teacher, was a corporate trainer for many years, and then found my niche training & supporting business owners, entrepreneurs & sales professionals to network at a world-class level. My passion is working with motivated people, who are coachable and who want to build their businesses through relationship marketing and networking (online & offline). I help my clients create retention strategies, grow through referrals, and create loyal customers by staying connected.
In appreciation for being here, I have a couple of items for you.
A LinkedIn Checklist for setting up your fully optimized Profile:
An opportunity to test drive the Follow Up system I recommend by taking the
10 Card Challenge – you won’t regret it.
