The power of leaning into your identity, not away

If you want people to believe in you, you have to be comfortable with yourself first. 

The beginning step is to be honest and authentic about who we are and embracing our unique strengths and experiences can lead to personal and professional success.

How to build and shift your focus in your business

Your business isn’t built overnight, but it can change quickly. If you’re needing to pivot or shift your focus for your business, Trystan draws from his own experience to do so successfully. This includes focusing on your own abilities, reevaluating your vision, focusing on the critical pieces, and knowing that stepping back can actually be the right move to manage your focus and energy in the moment.

Why you need to develop your creative process and accountability

A plan without accountability is a nice daydream. Your plan needs structure, documentation, and accountability to be executed successfully.

In Trystan's experience, he highlights the need to block time for work, utilize unconventional methods to prepare for tasks, and practice flexibility in the creative process. 

The need and benefit of diversity and inclusion initiatives

As a consultant, Trystan has seen time and again how the world and workplace become a better place when everyone is given the same opportunities. The divide can often happen when different people don’t see eye to eye. 

By prioritizing diversity and inclusion efforts, organizations can create more positive and productive workplace environments, attract a wider range of talent, and ultimately increase their success and impact.
