The Hero's Journey - Lisa Murray

The Hero’s Journey is a timeless story, this framework is as old as the stars, and yet we need to keep being reminded. All businesses owners are creative and story tellers, this structure can serve us all well. In this weeks second part of the 2 part chat, we discuss Joseph Campbell and his book The Hero with a Thousand faces. Lisa is a filmmaker, screenwriter and an arts & film festival director - she created the last one not only through the pandemic but around the time of the wild fires in California! If that’s not enough she doesn’t have one podcast, she has two! I have dreams damn it and Death talk podcast. Be sure to listen to last week’s chat if you missed it, you will hear all about Lisa working at paramount pictures in old Hollywood, her award winning film ‘free hugs in Hollywood’ which got published in the best-selling book Chicken Soup for the Soul. And Lisa’s film Soul providers. Lisa takeaways 1.The idea is the inspired state of mind and the doing is very different. We have to trick ourselves! Start on part of the task that you do like and nibble on it. Do little things each day. 2.If you’re chipping away little by little, when you are inspired again you’re going to be so proud that you carried on pushing through.  3.When you’re doing something that scares you remember It’s not about you, it’s about that person who needed to hear your message and story! You will hear after what it did for that someone, that’s what will fill you up! 4.When you're putting out your contribution to the world, remember you might not realise that same year when you’re putting it out! It could be a year later you hear what it did or years on. They might see it after you’ve died. That’s the magic of creating. 5.If a friend has lost someone, don’t worry if you don’t know what to say, just show you care, your friend will know you’ve tried. 6.There’s always a mundane opposite side to huge dreams 7.Every creative job is completely different, you’re always going to keep pushing and put 110 % in because you care You can connect with Lisa here  https://ihavedreamsdammit.com/ Free Hugs In Hollywood Film Clubhouse - Lisa Murray
