***BEST OF HOW I WORK***

I'm currently taking a few weeks off, so today's episode is a Best Of episode. I've gone back through the archives of the last 2.5 years of hosting How I Work and picked out my absolute favourite episodes!

My guest today is Cyan Ta’eed. Cy is one of Australia’s most successful entrepreneurs, having co-founded Envato in 2006 and growing it to being valued at over $1 billion. Last year she tried her hand at chocolate (why not?!) and Hey Tiger is now one of Australia’s fastest growing purpose-driven brands. Oh, and in her spare time, she recently launched Milkshake.app, which allows users to make a free website for their Instagram profile all on their phone, instantly.

In this chat, we cover:

How Cy went from spending four hours a day on her phone to just 15 minutes
How Cy changed her mobile phone to make it less addictive
The game that Cy’s family play on January 1, every year
The five minute activity that Cy does every morning to set herself up for the day
How Cy manages her energy levels as a self-described introvert who presents as an extravert.
Cy’s approach to constant learning and development
How and where Cy has found great people to work in her businesses.
Cy’s strategies for overcoming Imposter Syndrome
How Cy mentally prepares herself for stressful events
Why Cy had an app on her phone that reminded her she is going to die 5 x per day
Cy’s go-to apps and gadgets
What happened when Cy had an eyesight-threatening ulcer and had to rest in darkness for several weeks.
Balancing sprints with periods of rest
