#123: Impact Yourself. Impact Your World. with Hilary Gauld Camilleri

In this episode, I am speaking with my friend and incredible photographer, Hilary Camilleri.   Hilary has taken my photos for the past 5 years and she truly has captured my emotional journey, including the picture for the cover of my book. I am so grateful to have Hilary on the podcast and give her an opportunity to highlight her story of impacting others.

Following a rewarding career as a Sales Representative and Territorial Manager at Labatt Breweries Canada, Hilary transitioned to a career in photography, opening One for the Wall in 2008. Since then, she has used her considerable knowledge of business and sales to grow a very successful enterprise, photographing over 3,500 families in Southwestern Ontario in the last 11 years. In 2011, she began to branch her business into commercial and corporate photography, creating imagery for promotional and marketing purposes, as well as executive and professional profile portraits. Hilary has quickly become known in the thriving local business community as the first choice for both natural light and studio light photography. Alongside her corporate work, she has also created a strong portfolio of actors, singers, speakers, and other arts and entertainment professionals, who are drawn to her dramatic lighting and creative composition. In 2018 she was awarded the K-W Oktoberfest Rogers Woman of the Year in Arts & Culture. Hilary loves living in the dynamic community of Waterloo Region and is proud to share her passion for entrepreneurship, volunteerism and community involvement

In this episode, we discuss:

1. Embracing all of our traumas and difficult experiences we have had in our lives and learning how to use them to become more enlightened human beings.
2. When we do the internal work on ourselves and commit to the process of learning and loving ourselves, we can truly step into our gifts to create an impact in the world that we are capable of creating.
3. How society can lean into this pause and experience of covid19, and how can we come out of this time as stronger leaders and humans.
4. When your work is tied to your purpose, you are standing in your gifts and that is when you can make the biggest impact in the world.
5. Everything happens for a reason. We aren’t necessarily supposed to understand or make sense of the reason, yet there is always something we can make of our challenges and our story.
6. Hilary recently created an Instagram page called, My Four Walls and it is a global diary on thoughts and spaces during isolation in the 2020 pandemic. Found on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/my.four.walls and she will be on City tv on April 7th at
