"I do soul searching every single day. It's not taking weeks of vacation somewhere - it's just a constant process in life." - Itir Eraslan
A deep dive into Itir Eraslan's remarkable journey from textile engineering in Turkey to founding her own marketing agency in New York.
The conversation explores her 20-year tenure at Nike, the courage to leave corporate life, and her philosophies on time, discipline, and personal growth. Itir shares intimate insights about how losing her father shaped her approach to life and career decisions, while also discussing her balanced perspective on AI in marketing. Her unique approach to structuring work days - working seven days a week but with intentional breaks and mindful practices - offers a fresh perspective on work-life integration.
The episode also delves into her thoughts on the future of marketing, the role of traditional advertising, and how maintaining a balanced view of technological advancement helps navigate industry changes.
