In this week's episode of Branding Beyond Business with John Mediana. I dive into the process behind creativity and the importance of looking back at our old work to inspire growth.

John shares his personal experience of going through old hard drives filled with years of documented content. As a seasoned creative and business owner, he encourages us to take the time to reminisce on our own journey. Whether you're a fellow creative, a business owner, or someone looking to make a change in your career, this episode offers valuable insights.

From reminiscing about the early days of MySpace and AIM, to recognizing the initial struggles and doubts, John emphasizes the significance of understanding the time and dedication it takes to master a craft. He reminds us that the journey itself is beautiful, and it's crucial to appreciate how far we've come.

We all understand the desire for instant gratification and the pressure to achieve quick results. But John challenges us to trust the process, focus on one thing at a time, and master the art we love. Sharing his own vulnerabilities and the internal struggles he's faced, John highlights the importance of identifying what truly makes us happy and staying true to ourselves amidst the hype and trends.

Furthermore, John opens up about the fear of sharing our unique process and systems, as if we risk losing our hard-earned success. However, he urges us to let go of those fears and embrace the power of sharing our journey with others. By doing so, we can inspire and connect with fellow creators, and ultimately contribute to a thriving creative community.

In this episode, John offers practical advice, prompts us to reflect on our own process, and reminds us that success is not just about the end result but about the progress we make along the way. Whether you're feeling stuck, doubting your abilities, or craving inspiration, this episode is a must-listen.
