Connection via Solitude - Landscape Photography and YouTube Success with Thomas Heaton

Today’s guest is Thomas Heaton.


Thomas is a landscape photographer and YouTuber. 


His YouTube channel has attracted over half a million subscribers
and features   weekly video blogs of his photo shoots in
some of the most stunning locations on earth.


I’m neither a photographer nor into nature. But there’s something
magical about the way he films the process of spending hours and
sometimes days in pursuit of a single photo.


I’ve been a subscriber and huge fan of Thomas since the early
days of his channel, and it was such a treat to spend an hour
discussing creativity as a serious pursuit.


Our conversation ranged from the power of publicly admitting your
mistakes, to the battle against repetition in pursuit of
expertise, how he approaches storytelling, getting into a flow
state, the role of intentionality in creativity, loneliness, and
the role of luck in success.


And of course, Thomas shares his story of a chance encounter with
lasting impact, and gives one critical piece of advice to young
professionals trying to make it in this crazy world.
