About this episode

Philippa Craddock explores why some creative business owners remain calm during industry shifts while others do not.

There's a pattern I've been watching for years. And the last few months have made it clearer than ever. Why do some creative business owners stay so calm when things shift and others don't? I think I finally know what the difference is. Key Moments: [00:00] What prompted this episode, and the pattern I have been watching for years [03:37] The story behind a major industry wobble, and the very revealing reaction it triggered [07:55] The counter-example: people quietly flying with the very models others declared dead, and why they're thriving [14:11] What i would love you to take away from this episode Notable Quotes: "There is a really big difference between learning from someone, and outsourcing the question of who you are to them. The first one builds something durable. The second one builds something that depends on someone else's continued direction."
