Episode Summary:
Our guest is Yulia Gladysheva, a former documentary photographer who has pioneered a unique approach to brand photography. Yulia shares her journey from taking authentic, unstaged photos to creating persuasive photography tailored specifically for entrepreneurs. Her innovative method empowers business owners to take control of their visual storytelling to create impactful images themselves - without ever having to step into a studio or pose awkwardly.
Key Takeaways:
The Origin of Persuasive Photography: Yulia's transition from traditional documentary photography to working with entrepreneurs. Understanding Sales Psychology: Yulia emphasizes the importance of integrating sales psychology into brand photography, and that images need to be strategically aligned with marketing goals for business success.Empowering Entrepreneurs: Yulia shares the breakthrough moment when she guided a client's son to take professional-level photos remotely during the lockdown, leading her to develop a system where entrepreneurs can create their own brand images with her guidance.Visual Storytelling: Yulia explains how her clients learn to use their images as part of a consistent visual story across all social media platforms, helping them build trust and connect more deeply with their audience.Strategy Over Randomness: Instead of random social media posts, Yulia advocates for a strategic approach where each image serves to build a cohesive narrative that showcases the transformation entrepreneurs offer to their clients.Memorable Quotes:
"It’s not just about taking pictures; it’s about telling a story that reflects who you are and what you offer.""Entrepreneurs can create their own compelling, authentic images with the right guidance—it's all about breaking the myth that only photographers can do it."Call to Action:

In this episode, I dive into the struggles that many introverts face when it comes to asking for help. Drawing from my own experiences as a former lawyer and now a coach and midlife mentor, I explore why asking for assistance can often feel like a sign of weakness, and how overcoming this mindset can be transformative—especially for introverts in business and leadership roles.
Key Points:
The stigma of asking for helpWorking for others vs. working for yourselfThe importance of outsourcing and delegationReframing the role of a business ownerDeveloping a “CEO mentality”Key Takeaways:
Asking for help is not a sign of weakness but a strategic move to strengthen your business or career.Introverts can thrive by leveraging their strengths and outsourcing tasks that don't align with their core skills.Viewing yourself as a CEO can help you make better decisions about delegation and collaboration.Next Steps:

Episode Summary:
How does an introvert stand their ground during conflict, earn the trust of senior executives, and become the go-to person in a corporate environment?
In this episode, Anthony Kuo shares his transition from a promising but unsatisfying career in corporate America to becoming a career satisfaction coach. He shares candidly about the challenges faced by introverts in the workplace and how they can leverage their unique strengths to succeed without compromising their true nature.
Key Points:
How being in a minority group at school affects one’s identity and sense of belonging:
School can be hard when you’re not one of the majority.When you realize that you’re different and not necessarily in a culturally acceptable way or a way that feels safe.When your friends had a language to talk to each other and you weren’t a part of that, and didn’t know the cultural references they were making.
Challenges of being an Introvert in corporate America:
Being technically proficient at the job, but realizing the need to be able to tell stories and persuade others to see your point of view.Being used to deferring to authority due to the hierarchical nature of Asian culture, and learning to speak up and assert yourself and stand your ground when questioned or challenged by more senior executives.
Leveraging Expertise and Building Trust:
Gaining trust and influence in the workplace through personal reputation, the ability to tell compelling stories with data, and the ability to hold space and demonstrate empathy for multiple points of view.
Career Satisfaction:
Career satisfaction is about using your personality at work and having your personality and all of its quirks and wonderful uniqueness be engaged, appreciated, and valued at work.Career satisfaction is about figuring out what it takes for you to thrive.30% of the time, what employees are looking for is accessible exactly where they are - they just have to reach for it.Quitting is not always the solution - career change is stressful and expensive. Most of the time, career dissatisfaction is because a part of you is craving change, and another part of you really values something that is being provided through your current role. Identify what it is you value.
Advice for someone who is not satisfied with their career right now:
Listen to your dissatisfaction. Pay attention. Get curious.Ask yourself: what is it that you are not getting, what is keeping you here, what is it exactly that you enjoy.
