Ideas in motion
It’s strange how talent works.
Often, you just know you’re good at something – maybe you write beautifully, come up with creative solutions on the spot, have a practical mindset that gets things done, love cooking amazing food, or tell stories that truly move people. But still, you keep wondering how to grow into this – how to actually put your talent into practice. So, we decided to try something simple.
