Demystifying Expertise - 8. Learning and Unlearning: Jodi Newcombe

For this episode, Ece spoke to Jodi Newcombe, one-time colleague, all-time friend, with several hats – including Carbon Arts and Castlemaine Institute.

She talked about her journey of learning, unlearning and managing her professional ego. She says she hits ‘the green wall’ but what helps her survive, and may also help you are: 1. discover and focus on your unique gifts and 2. listen without thinking about what you’ll say next.
