Charlie Welham is a multi-hyphenate who is based in Sydney, Australia. He is an athlete, content creator, social influencer, videographer, photographer and model. He spoke about his latest ventures.
Lately, Welham has been branching out more in the lifestyle, self-help, and fashion space in the digital world.
“I enjoy filming those videos on those topics. I am really passionate about them, and as an added bonus, they help make money, so that’s good,” he noted. “Not only is it a passion of mine but a nice side income.”
Daily motivations
On his daily motivations, he said, “I am motivated by many things right now. Mostly, to be honest, to make my family proud, and I don’t want to be working forever. I want to work hard while I’m young and just be prepared for my future. That is what is motivating me at the moment.”
CC The Label Swimwear
Welham is a co-founder of CC The Label swimwear. “My swimwear line, CC The Label, is growing, I am surprised to say the least,” he said.
“It definitely does better over the summer in Australia, and we have some new things coming,” he foreshadowed.
Advice for young and emerging entrepreneurs
For young and emerging entrepreneurs, Welham said, “The biggest killer for people wanting to be entrepreneurs is worrying about what people think and procrastination. I would advise them to quite the procrastination.”
“Start now, get started, and stop worrying about what everyone is thinking because nobody really cares; they just want to focus on their own lives,” he noted.
The digital age
He had great words to say about the Internet age. “The digital age is the best opportunity for making the most out of what the Internet brings,” Welham said.
“With all the AI (artificial intelligence), you need to adapt to it, and just go with the flow,” he added.
Future plans
On his future plans, he revealed, “Potentially moving overseas, and perhaps working on projects there in such places as Dubai.” “Dubai is really the best,” he exclaimed.
In addition, he noted that his videography and photography are “going well.” “I am working hard, hustling, and getting it out there,” he said.
Stage of his life
On the title of the current chapter of his life, Welham stated, “The Takeover.”
Career-defining moments
Welham is a firm believer that adversity makes us stronger.
“The hardest moments in my life certainly helped define me such as the struggles of growing up in a low-income family in England, and that really helped me find how to get out of certain situations and how to deal with certain problems,” he elaborated.
“Also, living in Australia since I was 18 years old by myself has helped define me. That helped me develop into the person I am now,” he added.
Superpower of choice
If he were to have any superpower, it would be “pausing time.” “Pausing time, making a few changes, and then, starting again,” he said. “Is that possible?” he inquired.
A major influence in his life — his grandmother
Welham revealed that a major influence in his life is his “grandmother.” “She’s my childhood superhero,” he admitted. “All glory goes to her. She is my inspiration.”
Success
Regarding his definition of success, Welham said, “Success means being at my maximum potential.”
