In this episode of the Growing Kiwis Podcast, we chat with Ruth Gilmour, founder and Creative Director of Gilmour Studios, about living and working intentionally.
Ruth shares her journey from teaching photography to running a thriving studio in Hamilton, NZ, and how she aligns her business with her family values. We explore how she balances work, family, and wellbeing, the evolution of her studio into a collaborative space, and the role of habits and systems in creating consistency and reducing decision fatigue.
Ruth also discusses the importance of community, collaboration, and empathy in business, reframing challenges as opportunities, and how her energy and approach differentiate her service. This conversation is packed with inspiration and practical insights for anyone looking to live more intentionally, build meaningful habits, and create a business that reflects their values.
