In this episode of Finding Fearless, I sat down with Francesca Phillips, founder of The Good Space. We dove into her journey from the music industry to becoming an advocate for purposeful living and creativity. Francesca shared her powerful experiences with depression and discovering her ADHD, and how these realizations shaped her unique approach to work and life.
We discussed the pervasive "hustle mindset" and why it's so difficult to let go of. A core theme of our conversation was the vital importance of aligning your work with your personal values to create a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Key Themes:

Francesca's pivot from music industry management to nurturing creatives.
Overcoming the societal pressure to constantly "hustle."
The transformative power of understanding your own mental health and neurodivergence.
How AI can free up time, and the importance of using that time for creativity and connection.
Strategies for building a life and career that are truly aligned with your deepest values.
