January 30, 2018Want to be successful? Unleash your creativity
Being an entrepreneur means being creative, but how do you do this if you’re not confident? Creativity is linked to the mind, body and soul. These three need to function as one for you to be able to bring out your creative genius and become successful.
The Nairobi Garage hosted two thought leaders, Sapna Chandaria and her husband, Rand Pearson, who gave a talk on creativity and entrepreneurship during our After Office Hours (AOH) session. They showed us how using your creativity can lead to success not just for you, but for the people around you as well.
Where it all started
Having met 12 years ago, Sapna and Rand came together to found Mondeas Media Limited. Since then, this content production company that has given birth to other brands such as UP Nairobi, Kenya Concierge and now, NSPIRA. This new partnership is centered around creative and conscious leadership.
For the last 20 years Sapna has been working in energy healing modalities with her main specialization being empowerment and transformation. Rand has worked in media for over 26 years. Together the two like to describe NSPIRA as a company where media meets personal transformation.


Unleashing your creativity
NSPIRA seeks to help entrepreneurs find themselves and discover their unique purpose. Your definition of success as well as failure are defined by you and not others. The only way you can succeed is by tapping deep into your inner self and defining who you really are.
With the rapid and constant change of the world,having a startup, being an entrepreneur and most importantly, being you, requires the forgotten qualities of being authentic. You have to learn to live your purpose, be fascinated with yourself and taking a stand for the world around you. All these combined are needed to unlock our greatest potential.
Everybody has a different level of creativity and the couple encourages people to go on a journey to help us discover our poetic madness. In doing so, we get closer to what drives us. Through NSPIRA, the couple will empower people to stop sabotaging themselves and start believing in themselves.
They believe that when we see our creativity get out, we will have an impact on the world far greater than what we have ever believed possible.


The process to becoming successful
The process to discovering your true power and unravelling your creativity is as follows:
- Discover your authentic self
- Invoke your soul purpose
- Create a lasting impact
- Align your soul purpose to a life strategy
The biggest take-away from this talk was that we all should live our own unique purpose. When we do this, we are able to live our lives confidently without fear. As a business person and entrepreneur, we need to clearly understand what holds us back from being the best we can be. It all boils down to our beliefs and how we handle them.
