    #27 Jeremy Beasley | Giving Yourself Permission to Make Something That Isn’t Perfect

    #27 Jeremy Beasley | Giving Yourself Permission to Make Something That Isn’t Perfect

    Jeremy Beasley is a Facebook ads expert, film director, wedding photographer, and overall an incredibly curious and fascinating mind. A few years back, he sold a documentary that he made on Tiny Houses to Netflix! Prior to that, he was an international wedding photographer for several years, then left the industry and founded a Japanese knife company.

    Together with Jeremy we dive into the topic of allowing yourself to try new things without worrying too much about them being perfect and successful right from the start. The pace at which you create new things, is the pace at which you learn. Hence, ignore the unorganized ducks and imperfect circumstances. Stop waiting for signs from above. Follow your instinct and passions. Not all of them need to be life-changing decisions. Some, are simply there to make your life more fun and enjoyable.
