How to be resilient

Alison Garwood-Jones June 7, 2017

 

The response to our first video with Nicolette Linton was like a burst of confetti. In Ep. 2, Nikki talks about:

• Changing careers and thinking, What have I done?
• Her resilience after being “made redundant”
• Her approach to problem-solving on site

Nicolette Linton is a former book and magazine editor turned landscape designer. She famously traded in ridiculous amounts of swag for hauling 40-pound bags of topsoil and digging holes. Explore Nikki's gardens at www.green-bean.ca

Willful is the web series that tracks how artists and creative entrepreneurs work, thrive and survive. We interview one artist a week, then post two 5-minute snack films from that interview on YouTube each week.

Follow us here or on our YouTube Channel and website, WillfulProject.com, for our entire archive of inspiring interviews.

Thank you, Greg Garson and The Merchant Taps & Tavern for offering us SUCH a fantastic stage! Greg is already planning his patio garden for the restaurant.
