Betty Shin Binon (aka Stems and Forks) has gone from being one of Toronto's most successful floral designers to now being highly sought after for her photography and video work in her distinct chiaroscuro style. We talk about the challenges and courage that go into making a creative career change a little later in life. And we discuss the power of education, the importance of continuous learning and how generously sharing our knowledge and creative process can take us far.
This episode is great for anyone who has ever said "it's too late to start over" or anyone who has shied away from teaching what they do out of fear or a scarcity mindset!
This episode is part of our ongoing series profiling creative Canadian women - their journeys and some of the their most impactful business lessons and tips.
