Chris Jespersen: Big Swings, Bold Moves & The Hidden Cost of Playing Small

What does it really take to thrive in the luxury wedding world—not just creatively, but personally? In this episode, we sit down with Chris Jespersen of Storybox Cinema to unpack the risks, identity shifts, and real growth that come with building a creative life in a high-stakes industry. Chris shares the wild story behind one of his earliest career-defining moments (spoiler: it involved a one-way international flight, no passport, and a suitcase full of dreams), how dancing became a metaphor for his approach to business, and why authenticity is still the rarest luxury. Whether you’re a photographer, filmmaker, planner, or designer—this conversation will leave you rethinking how you show up, how you serve, and how you grow. If you’ve ever felt like you’re faking it, playing small, or stuck in a creative rut… this one’s for you.
