Producing Creativity with Jim Carter
50. In Producing Creativity, host William Glass sits down with Jim Carter, the founder of Legacy West Media. Jim discusses how repetitive physical injuries forced him to change his life’s path away from athletics and embrace his natural creativity. We discuss the power of travel and developing deep connections with a diverse set of people and how those connections not only bring Jim joy but also provide opportunities in his business. After only a few months of founding his business, Jim talks about how he was forced to pivot due to COVID, move across the country twice within a year and get married to his incredible wife Caroline. Jim brings incredible energy to the conversation and is someone I truly admire.
