Alex Hillman is a pioneer who has made it his mission to help independent creatives build sustainable careers. He’s the author of the recent bite-sized hit, The Tiny MBA, which is an insightful collection of short lessons about the long game of business.
Alex cofounded Indy Hall, Philadelphia’s first coworking space, and helped launch what became the coworking boom. He also built Stacking the Bricks with Amy Hoy, where they teach creative professionals how to bootstrap their own businesses.
As I believe you’ll hear, Alex is a very caring and generous person with his knowledge and experience and loves nothing more than to hear about how these ideas are helping people level up, so please reach out to him via email at Alex [at] tiny.mba and let him know what resonated with you.
Among many other things in this conversation, we talk about…
- What does it look like to bring intentionality to our careers, to be able to connect the dots between starting where we are with what we have, and the long term aspirations and impact we want to create?
- mindsets that will help you to have balance and equanimity in the face of uncertainty and having no control
- the application of Buddhist teachings to a business career
This was a really fun conversation that will help you cultivate continuity in your efforts and invest in the long game of business, to benefit yourself and everyone around you.
Please enjoy learning with Alex Hillman.
