Between juggling a full-time job, launching a personal blog, and keeping her beautiful family organized and in line, Sophie Trem, founder of The Other Art of Living, is a total inspiration. How does she do it? Sophie hosted us in her charming Paris apartment, to talk about how she makes it all happen, while staving off burnout, and, managing to look energized and radiant, even when she feels anything but.
TW: What inspired you to launch The Other Art of Living?
ST: I never thought I was going to start a blog. When I was pregnant, I resigned from my job and I had a career coach to help me figure out my next step. One thing he said to me marked a turning point in my life: “I think you are more creative than you think, but you need to go back to school to learn how to use your creativity.” After that, I took a course to master my creative toolkit: Photoshop, HTML, CSS…everything that you need to launch a website. I also read plenty of self-help books. The Power of Intentions by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, changed my life. It taught me to visualize the things that I want, to really believe in them, and just make it happen. My blog was born from that process of visualizing and taking action.
