There's that great movie up in the air if you've ever seen that with George Clooney.

And he has one of those BS lines where whenever he fires somebody, he says,

anybody who's ever built an empire has been sitting in the seat you're sitting in right now.

He says that right before or right after he fires somebody and he's right.

That is a completely factual true statement. To build an empire you have to be at rock bottom.

I'm Strenie Rao and this is the unmistakable creative podcast where you get a window into the

stories and insights of the most innovative and creative minds who started movements,

built driving businesses, written best selling books and created an insanely interesting art.

For more, check out our 500 episode archive at unmistakablecreative.com.

Doing creative work can be kind of lonely and that's why we built the unmistakable listener tribe.

The tribe is a community for professionals to connect and support each other.

Everything is designed to help you grow your business and share what's working and what isn't.

And that's true whether you're a business owner or an artist.

You'll get access to feedback, live conversations with guests and so much more.

By joining the tribe you become part of a community of creators who all support each other

and it's completely free. Hopefully you'll see you there.
