S2 E15: Surrender to the Flow with Nikki...

Dan Kirby
About this episode

In this episode, Dan is joined by Nikki Trott, brand strategist, Founder of Barefoot Ventures and host of the Going Conscious podcast - a top global 2.5% podcast, just like this one. 

Having built a career in developing fashion brands, Nikki thought she had achieved success. But then, she blew it all up… deliberately.

In this interview, we delve into Nikki’s journey from a high-flying international fashion career to the world of impact finance. She unpacks what it means to “surrender to the flow.”  How hopping off the tube unlocked a new way of seeing the world. The “power of now.” And why recognising the interconnectedness of life will help you build a more resilient business.
