Do you ever wonder how a person makes ideas happen? How a person creates a concept and puts it into action in a campaign, art, or book? How do ideas scale to the point that they're so popular and well established? Do you ever wonder how a creative mind chooses an idea and how they discount hundreds of them when pursuing a creative project?In this interview, I chat with Aaron Harvey, co-founder of Made of Millions, a non-profit organization that is at the vanguard of creating social media campaigns in mental health. We learn behind the scenes how he and his team conceive ideas and execute them. Made of Millions has been rebranding mental health, developing impactful messages for the lay audience, and creating awareness about mental health in work environments.In a casual conversation, Aaron shared his process as a creative person and how he conceives an idea, how he handles creative stuckness, how he manages fears of his ideas not landing well, how he scales ideas and how he knows when to step back from an idea.This was a very special conversation and hope you enjoy it!(*) Show notes and resources of this episode(*) Receive free weekly science-based, compassionate, and actionable skills to stop ineffective playing-it-safe(*) Figure out your playing-it-safe profile in 5 minutes and identify the key thinking strategies that keep you living in your head(*) Learn ACT skills for anxious achievers by taking Dr. Z.
