Today's guest is Xanthe Berkeley, a photographer, film maker, stop motion artist and visual story-teller.
From her beginnings in lifestyle portrait photography for families and women, to guiding and inspiring others to start making their own films, through her workshops and online film courses. Xanthe has worked with many leading UK brands, such as Boden, Cath Kidston, The White Company, Twinings, Penguin Books, Warner Music, Etsy UK to name just a few – creating films, stop motions and photos to be shared across their social media channels.
In today's conversation, we get straight to the crux of the Courage to Be and what that means to Xanthe. We hear how Xanthe, despite her success as a creative, still struggles with resistance and self-doubt but see these as merely part of the process and shares ways in which she moves through them.
Some key take-aways:
I do hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did, what a inspirational, colourful, humble human - thank you Xanthe x
