Slingshot: The Cooper Review [Creativity Series #9]

Slingshots are a mini-series within the Unthinkable show where we go deep into a creative side project that winds up someplace surprising. Tinkering on side projects is a powerful way to slingshot our careers forward as content marketers, writers, designers, podcasters, videographers, and any kind of creative.   In this episode, Sarah Cooper talks about her journey from acting to Google to making the leap pursuing her comedic writing full-time. She parodies business culture, and she's built a nice audience for herself ... but what happens when your creative aspirations differ from what your audience expects from you?   LINKS TO KNOW: [TheCooperReview.com](TheCooperReview.com) Sarah's Twitter: [twitter.com/sarahcpr](https://twitter.com/sarahcpr "https://twitter.com/sarahcpr") [10 Tricks to Appear Smart in Meetings](http://thecooperreview.com/10-tricks-appear-smart-meetings/)   SUBSCRIBE TO THE SHOW: Join the newsletter at [unthinkable.fm](unthinkable.fm) Jay's Twitter: [twitter.com/jayacunzo](https://exit.sc/?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fjayacunzo "http://twitter.com/jayacunzo") Show Behind-the-Scenes: [Snapchat.com/add/jayacunzo](https://exit.sc/?url=http%3A%2F%2FSnapchat.com%2Fadd%2Fjayacunzo "http://Snapchat.com/add/jayacunzo")   SUPPORT FOR THIS EPISODE: [RightSideShirts.org](RightSideShirts.org)   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Creativity Comedy Standup Side Projects Entrepreneurship Blogging Meetings Corporate Culture Books Startups Silicon Valley San Francisco New York Running Writing
