Leaving space in your business for magic, with foam wig artist Toshie

 
 
 

Toshie is the owner and lead artist at wigcraft.vegas, where she makes large-scale foam wigs. She’s currently working through the trials of being a small business owner as this hobby takes on a life of its own. While she has confidence in her “wigcrafting” and creative abilities, she is less comfortable with being an “entrepreneur.” Through it all, she can’t shake the urge to create. She is living in a high-contrast world and constantly contributing to new culture. If it is strange, she will probably be into it.

In this episode, Toshie shares her thoughts on art, magic, and the challenges of entrepreneurship.

Top takeaways:

1️⃣ Following your passion can be self-serving and also be in service of others.

2️⃣ Being visible & creating a brand can feel selfish and highlight identity stuff. That’s normal.

3️⃣ Leave some room in your business plans for magic.

4️⃣ Give yourself permission to enjoy the ride.
