I’m so excited to chat with Jia Zheng of Simply Jia. She’s a self-proclaimed “Swiss army knife that brings your creative visions to life” and we unpack how that title spans across both the personal style and operations consulting branches of her business.

While she promotes more of her personal styling online, and more of her operations coaching in-person, we both love that she chooses NOT to choose—at least not for now. She can be her multi-faceted self and bring all parts of her to the conversation while reading the room to know which parts to reveal first and in what ways. 

And my brain is constantly drawing parallels and connecting dots, so it was really fun to have this conversation because we do very different work, but in similar ways—with values-alignment, empathy, etc.
