Manage episode 435420210 series 3591734
When you were a little kid, did you color inside the lines or did you color outside the lines?
In this candid conversation, acclaimed interior designer, Noz Nozawa, shares her
philosophies of creative liberation, of radical self-acceptance that cultivates a sense of belonging and community, and the true meaning of success.
We discuss Noz’ realization that it’s never too late to unburden from boring and her subsequent career change from marketing for Clorox and tech startups in San Francisco to a successful design firm. Of living life in color, in the literal sense as well as a philosophical endeavor.
Noz shares about her life experiences as a Japanese American, of growing up as an outsider and the compassion that grew from that perspective, being a child free dog momma, and finding connection and spirituality rooted in the cosmos.
This conversation will inspire you to explore infinite ways to make a version of the world for yourself that is bold and free.
