When the opportunity comes, you have to be ready. Hard work will only take you so far. 

In this episode, I encourage you in whatever you are doing. Hard work and mastering your craft are essential, but don’t be afraid to shoot your shot while doing that. There is a lot of value gained in doing things, even if you get rejected at first. Trying out things helps you make the necessary improvements.


Key takeaways from this episode:

  • Do not be afraid. Shoot your shot. 
  • NO doesn’t mean never. It just means not now.  Even if you get that NO, don’t stop. Just keep ongoing.
  • Opportunities do not always just fall into one’s lap.
  • It doesn’t matter what field you are in, but you always have to work and study hard to be better at it.
  • We’re entitled to make mistakes, and that’s how we improve.
  • Progression over perfection. Just get things done and make improvements along the way.
  • Whatever your goal is, research it and see what others are doing.
  • Accept negative feedback for your improvement.




Hello! I’m Phoenix.

As a hybrid shooter (photo & video), I quickly learned how brand content is so critical! I continued to create visual content for my brand, and my love for content creation grew. Working with creative entrepreneurs, I identified their consistent struggle with connecting their brand to engaging content.


Let's connect! I love to laugh, brunch, and drink margaritas. Join me on this entrepreneurial journey to be better.
