Pitch Podcast

Born into a family of scientists from Iran, Chaka Sobhani grew up in Devon and started off as a director – she is now the Chief Creative Officer at advertising agency Leo Burnett and featured in Pitch’s Mavericks issue. In this episode of #PitchPodcast Pitch guest editor and cofounder of Utopia Nadya Powell interviews Chaka, they talk about her early childhood obsession with film (she used to get up to watch films at 6 o’clock in the morning aged 7), her time at ITV (she set up ITV Creative) and Mother London. Chaka discusses what it means to tell great stories, the energy of creative studios, and how your 20s are about finding out about what you don’t want to do and your 30s are about doing what you do want to do. Her final message: don't wait, just to it and have the best time.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
