#029 - Camille Tuutti - The Digital Nomad - What could happen if I succeed
From Washington DC insider to digital nomad now living & working on her own terms. CEO and journalist that produces branded content for Fortune 500 companies & news organisations. In 2018 she decided to step down from her well paid position as Editor in Chief to become a digital nomad working 15 hr/week. She is working from places she wants to travel to and choose the most effective working hours. We talk about her time in a Stockholm suburb, her love for writing, traveling, her drive to be the best, live in the US as journalist and Editor in Chief and eventually taking the leap to start her own business. She shares her story fear, perfectionism and finding what it means to life an authentic life true to yourself.
3 Words: Driven, Passionate, Creative/Curious
Colour: Glitter. Red, vibrant colour, speaking colour. It is a confident colour. Important is that you wear the colour and not the colour you.
Her little Secret: Unhealthy obsession with serial killers, true crime and vampires tv shows and books.
Her Story:
Have Goals, a clear path and hard work.
In 2018 Camille got to treat her eating disorder. A life changing decision. With lots of time to meditate and think of how to live an authentic life for her. Meditating on when she is happiest? That’s when she decided: “I will quit work and travel full time”
Failure:
Camille was always afraid to fail. Until she realised: "What if I don't fail?" The fear comes from:
Creativity:
Get a clear mind. Being at peace & mindfulness. Take a long walk, a walking meditation helps to free her mind and be inspired. After the initial ideas come other ideas start flowing in.
External input can help kick-start the creative process. Reading, watching Tv or talking to people about something. And sometimes you just need to do the work. Usually creativity will ebb and flow during her writing process.
Use your curiosity to approach an aspect from different ways and angles. Or get sparing with people with different problem solving approaches then you have.
Obstacle for creativity
Habits & Routines:
Advice for a digital Nomad:
Best advice she got.
“There is no growth in your comfort zone. And no comfort in your growth zone!”
Don’t be afraid to fail. Reach beyond then what you think possible. We can do much more than what we can do now.
“Learn to be uncomfortable”
Embarking new life. Always say yes to a new opportunity. I don’t know if I am …. Enough, "Say Yes" to the opportunity and then find out how to handle.
Call for action:
You have that dream. Book, travel. “JUST DO IT”… don’t think about it. “Start thinking what could happen when I succeed.!!!”
What is the alternative. Want to stay where you are and feel you missed out.
