Episode 67 - When building a community, shared silence can be golden
Show Notes
Creating a community around a shared interest or passion can lead to unexpected outcomes. Matt Trinetti followed the energy of an idea and provided a space for like-minded people to come together and form a community. The London Writers’ Salon has grown and evolved over time, with daily writing sessions and weekly interviews with writers, and is now a profitable business formed from a simple idea at the start of the UK’s first covid lockdown.
Takeaways from Dan and Pia
- Follow the energy in the conversations you’re having, as more often than not, they’ll lead you to more fruitful decisions.
- Collaborating virtually or in person gives us a sense of moving forwards. Sometimes all it takes is for someone to hold space.
- Matt’s inclusive vision exposes the falsehood that collaboration can and must only happen in the same physical space.
