"Your identity is not in what you do, therefore fail often, fail freely, learn and experiment. And take your successes in each of those failures because there is one." This is the kind of encouragement Alicja Colon (yes, like the fragrance) brings to the table.


Not only is she an epic photographer / paper crafter extraordinaire, but I think her strongest traits come in prioritizing what’s most important to her in life like family, friends and guiding other creatives.


Alicja works her magic in Savannah, GA and is also the Commerical Photographer at Focus Labs who build thoughtful identities and experiences to elevate and empower organizations.


She brings timeless advice to this episode and this is the deepest conversation this podcast has delivered to date.


We go in depth about:



  • Staying on your creative path

  • Discovering new passions and niches along the way

  • The long road of losing your identity

  • The danger of having success be defined by the work you create

  • Practical steps for:

    • Reclaiming your who (identity)

    • Refocusing your do (what you create)

    • Reframing what success looks like for yourself
