Today I have one of my favourite humans, and by far one of the most creative people I’ve ever met on the podcast. Nicholas Onken is known as the photographer of some of the world’s most highly acclaimed entrepreneurs like Jay Shetty, Lewis Howes, Gabby Bernstein and more. Nick is a Creative Alchemist whose professional and commercial repertoire has no template or limits. His portfolio of photographed personalities includes Justin Bieber, Usher, Tom Hanks, Jessica Alba, and Tony Robbins, to name a few. He has been commissioned by top-tier brands such as Nike, Coca-Cola, Adidas and publishers such as Cosmopolitan, Conde Nast Traveller, and Marie Claire. He designs incredible hats that are worn by artists, thought leaders and creatives. Identity Alchemy, a concept coined by Nick, is a powerful mix of personal growth and personal branding.
In this episode, we talk about Nick’s inspiring personal journey, the concept of aesthetic intelligence, our upcoming joint mastermind, and why we need to take ownership of both our internal and external expression to create the impact and influence that we desire in the world.
