When pitching the idea of the Branding Pot to a few (non-agricultural) business entrepeneurs, I had some surprising, yet telling conversations I thought I'd share with you, my girl gang.

We often times operate within our own echo chambers- we hang out with people who share very similar thought patterns, understandings and values (think your family, your neighbours, your friend group). Hello, validation, we love you! 

But what if we made an effort to step outside (even just a little bit at first) those echoing walls of glassy-eyed head-nodders and seek advice, relationships and perspectives that challenge us?

I'll tell you what happens:  growth, mindset shifts and opportunities; its the cross-pollination of ideas and values to create something new with the most desirable traits from both flowers. And the more varied the pollen, the more vibrant the bloom.

So go ahead: mingle with new minds.Your next big idea might be waiting in unfamiliar soil.  
 
Spend time outside your comfort zone 

Explain what you do. Practice your elevator speech. 

If you don't like the feedback, change how you tell the story. 
If you don't like the story, maybe its time to pen a new one.
