He’ll talk about objective success and reveal how his own internal monologue undermines it at every turn. Peter will share his techniques for getting over his own impostor syndrome as it recurs in his day-to-day job.

SeekInnovative ways in which creatives are pursuing their passions whilst making money online
It's not just big brands, banks and agencies leading the way in digital innovation. There is an entire economy of almost invisible entrepreneurs creating empires from their dining tables and home offices in their PJs! Australia's bloggers are a community of problem solvers, DIYers, and increasingly, savvy digital marketers who embrace change, failure and the lure of freedom from the typical 9 - 5. Laney will share some case studies of how bloggers are adopting digital marketing, design and eCommerce solutions to leverage their creative content and convert their raving fans into 6 and 7 figure incomes (and yes, usually in their PJs!).
