Out in Architecture Part 1: Interview with Yiselle Santos Rivera and Sarah Woynicz

40:42

What's considered sustainable from a public health perspective? Not necessarily the same things that we might otherwise uphold. We celebrate the 2025 Earth Day theme of Our Power, Our Planet with architect and integrative environmental specialist Molly Scanlon who shares insights on a new model for architecture practice. Adjacent industries hold the key to practice innovation. Seeing the issues through another point of view moves us past the constraints of business as usual. Advocacy requires having a flexible perspective and taking initiative to build your expertise and avenues of impact Things don't change unless you do. Buildings can become a non-pharmacological intervention in the world of public health as we add additional research related to safety and sustainability. Architects can provide a holistic vs. a traditionally component based understanding common in public health. Pick the right opportunities and keep your schedule open so you have the time and energy to get involved with what matters to you.

Loyal too Long? How sunk cost fallacy impacts your career 14:51

for 13 dage siden14:51

14:51

When are determination, loyalty, persistence not virtues? When you're deploying them in a no-win situation. There are more landmines like this than you might think in your career landscape. In today's episode, you'll learn how behavioral economics is keeping you stuck in situations that are aging like milk. Know when having grit is worth the payoff and when it's wasting your time. The more time, money or effort you invest, the more you feel responsible for achieving success, and the less likely you are to abandon what's not working. When you feel like you should keep trying, also consider the cost of a missed opportunity. What didn’t you do, explore, discover because you’re pouring resources down the drain? What did you put at risk in terms of your stress level? Your health, your well being? Make sure that your expectations are realistic and clearly communicated Don't get so emotionally invested that you can't walk away. Think about milestones and success measures and have a plan for what happens if they aren't met. Ask "what's the best that could happen?" Then decide if that answer is good enough.

An Ecosystem for Design Innovation: Interview with Noam Platt 30:28

The story of non-profit MakeGood was forged in architect Noam Platt's desire to help people with disabilities. Whether you also have a passion for assistive technology or some other cause lights you up, you don't have to wait for a project to have an impact. Learn why he thinks architects are uniquely qualified (and called) to lead positive change in the community and how to get started. Assistive technology is an emerging field that needs the creative thinking and problem solving skills of architects and designers. Finding areas like this and lending your expertise to them can have a lasting impact on your community. When you advocate and for something that helps people, you're not worried about asking for help or support. Embarrassment or making mistakes pale in comparison to getting something accomplished. You can't unsee problems especially if you know you have the ability to help solve them. One hour of your expert time is worth more than 20 hours of a non-experts time. Start by volunteering and building your network. The experience you get volunteering is experience you won't get working at a firm. That experience can be brought back to better inform projects at your firm.

Big thinkers don't have pick me energy. They turn their visions into action by putting the work into making and executing clear plans. There's no better message than that to close out our celebration of Women's History Month. Podcaster, coach, and author Andrea Liebross shares her proven strategies to get out of stuck stress and be successful on your terms. What will be your legacy?

Operate in your zone of extraordinary achievement by asking: will it make a difference? are you the only one who can do it? do you need to know how to do it? do you enjoy it? Success has two ingredients- mindset and support systems. You need both. Ask what if and operate out of curiosity not fear. Confidence is the willingness to feel anything.

Luck Favors the Prepared: Career Path Hacks 21:18

It's a good thing that luck isn't based on magic. Instead, luck finds those who are ready to say yes to the opportunities they want and have the discernment to say no to what they don't. Listen to learn how to get a little more lucky yourself. Don't dismiss achievements to the luck of being in the right place at the right time, knowing the right people, or having more resources. Appreciate the work that went into setting up those circumstances. Lucky people have clarity about what they want to achieve and pursue it with courage and confidence. They put the boundaries in place they need to get support and stay focused. Taking small steps consistently pays big dividends. Success shouldn't come at the cost of quality of life - it should enhance it.

Equality and Empowerment: International Women's Day Intervew with Sarah Kleiner 28:53

Happy International Women's Day! We celebrate this year's theme by hearing from an architect and small business owner who has built her own success on the motto of showing up even when it's uncomfortable. Learn how this strategy led to building powerful networks and big opportunities. Networks are a critical way to meet and be mentored by people who share your perspective and have perhaps overcome some of your current challenges. Nothing is ever wasted- take inventory of the skills, experience and clarity about your preferences you gained even doing work you didn't love. Then. put those skills to use in work you do love. Stop accepting the premise of all or nothing in your career. You can make other choices if you ask for a different way of working that supports your well being. Women often won't show up in environments that are hostile to them, but you can't change anything if you don't get involved. You don't have to prove yourself by being everything to everybody. When we open doors for one another, we have the ability to distribute tasks and support one another.

Women in Construction: The challenge of being heard 18:47

for 8 weeks siden18:47

18:47

According to a recent Jobsite survey respect is the number one issue named by women in the construction industry with most explaining that lack of respect shows up as not being heard. If you are in or adjacent to the AEC industry, and you are a woman, you can probably relate. Let's stop being available for this tired trope. When disrespect becomes a pattern, you can start to assume negative intentions and carry a lot of anger and resentment around. Feeling unheard either leads you to withdraw or be more aggressive. That aggressiveness then gets labeled as being too emotional, drowning out the substance of what you are saying in a tired narrative. Engage your audience by asking questions and providing information cliffhangers. Invite others to share their thoughts about what you said so that they process it in the moment. Accept that as a leader, you need to be clear and take those that resonate along with you. Leave behind those that don't.

Industry Disruptors Making the Status Quo a Very Scary Place 26:35

Hi there, it's your friendly neighborhood disruptor with a message for you about playing it safe. The earthquake in the AEC industry has already shaken the foundations of the first cost container and the best way to be more competitive is to rewrite the rules of the game. Learn more in this episode. It's easy to abandon your ideals and catastrophize when things get difficult, but you really need to double down on innovation. Trying to play it safe is demoralizing, exhausting and muddles your message. While you might think that the status quo is a safe place to be, industry disruptors are making it the most dangerous thing to do. Disruptors address pain points and bring an organizational perspective, not just a project perspective. This means applying design to our clients business and budget in a way we don't typically think about. We need to express the dividend of a design investment utilizing new technologies to model, prototype and simulate the value of design choices.

Stop having a transactional relationship with your clothes. Your fit conveys not just who you are, but how you feel. Style expert Ellie Steinbrink shares her insights on cultivating your personal brand via your style. Not sure how to shop for something new? Think about how the person you are becoming would show up. Style isn't about imitating others or conforming to a dress code, it's about authentically expressing who you are. Be intentional about what you choose to wear. Brain science shows that your choice of outfit can impact your confidence level, productivity and mood. Clothing should be an investment- having more of the right pieces vs a closet full of things that you rarely wear.

Why I'm Chasing the Nobel Peace Prize 16:40

The people who achieve the things that you're afraid to say you want? They're no better than you - they're just taking actions you're not. In this episode, I explore why the most audacious of goals are the only ones that should be your guideposts. I always sign off by saying "stay inspired." Inspiration is what keeps you focused, even when you encounter setbacks. It's how you focus on what you learn by overcoming an obstacle instead of seeing the obstacle as a signal you're on the wrong path. Being the person who (fill in the blank with your biggest dream) aligns you with your next right action. When you feel lost or discouraged, just ask yourself what the person who... would do. While external validation isn't the point, sometimes, looking at an established milestone or award allows you to work backward from there to where you are now.

The When Then Conundrum 18:26

18:26

Are you making progress towards your career goals, or excuses? Most of us have really great intentions...but all the little things in life, all the obligations, all the things we have to do first get in the way. Newsflash: success is about momentum, not prerequisites. While you can't magically go from 0 to 60 and achieve a big goal in one fell swoop, there are always aligned actions you can take today. These stepping stones keep you moving down the path. All those prerequisites (which have their own subsets of prerequisites) are obstacles that halt your momentum and keep you standing still. Find a role model and ask them about their moments of truth and how they pushed past doubts and made time to achieve their success. Make it non-negotiable that you make progress. Prioritize just 2 hours a day and you will stay motivated and start seeing results. Aspire to be "the person who" makes a difference. Write a letter to yourself 1 year from now listing what you did this year to get there. Include deadlines and milestones.

In this episode, you get to hear the Day 7 content from my 12 day Leadership Challenge. I tackle issues that aren't typically discussed (but should be) when it comes to leading. Listen in to hear about a common trap: proving your worth. Proving yourself leads you to want to manipulate situations for your personal benefit. It sets you up to be a scorekeeper not a leader. Proving yourself undermines your confidence and creates a dynamic that sets others up to constantly evaluate you also. Shift to working for a cause not applause.

What have you put in the too hard basket? You know, the one where things you really want to do but... go to die. In this episode, we explore why that happens and what you can do to stop avoiding and start acting. Are you overwhelmed by too many options? This can make you less satisfied and committed to a decision even if you do make one. Stop making choice so precious and just try things on. You'll get more clarity about your preferences as you go forward. Are you stuck in a perfectionism to procrastination loop? Know that done is always better than perfect. You get to course correct, but you have to be on a course first. Are you feeling like it's not for you just because you're struggling? The struggle is the growth- the more you challenge yourself, the better you will get at rising to a challenge. You need to be willing to do the work before you get to the ease.

Can You Get to Success Town on the Complain Train? 18:42

for 20 weeks siden18:42

18:42

In this episode, I answer a question from the Architecting community about negativity. As a leader, you have to deal with situations that can be downright adverse at times. Here's why talking about it isn't a bad thing. Your brain is hardwired for negative bias as a survival instinct, so we naturally see what’s wrong before what’s right. That can be leveraged for good as it can paint a more complete picture. It can also be demoralizing and seen as a way to shut something down. See a challenge instead of a problem. How can you be resourceful about meeting the challenge? What opportunities is it giving you to learn or hone your skill set? What holes in your work is it allowing you to fix? Build on what you are learning instead of shutting it down by saying yes and instead of no but... Stop fighting. Fighting relies on polarizing the situation, making the other party wrong. Instead, assume positive intent. This let’s you build on feedback instead of proving you are right. Conflict is a growth. It lets us consider a more diverse point of view as well as to see how we can improve. We can’t do that if we are relentlessly positive and ignore anything we don’t agree with.

Success is something you navigate for yourself. My guest Jill Bergman shares insights from her successful career and gives electric advice on leadership, networking, mentorship and more. Burnout helps no one. When you need to take a break or shift to part time, don't slog through. You can negotiate work schedules to work for you. Make a career dashboard to understand your own rhythms and patterns. Fill in the gaps using this self knowledge. Your career has two major phases. The early part is a doing phase where you acquire technical skills. The later part is the leading phase is about holding vision and sharing your expertise. Getting licensed is about valuing yourself as a professional. It pays compound interest throughout your career. The tests are actually designed to be taken by someone 3-5 years out of school. Show up authentically to build trust with clients, colleagues and co-workers. Use humor to be accessible and relatable, storytelling to connect with and engage your audience, and reflective listening to create psychological safety. The best way to advance in your career is to teach others to do what you are doing. Be generous with your time. Build a professional network and give back through mentoring, committee work and thought leadership.

Does your creative process feel like a glacier? If you wan to gain confidence in your decisions (and the process that informed them), implement a better decision making structure. Listen in for all the pro tips to save you time and money. The creative process goes through multiple divergent and convergent steps, each time becoming more granular. If you find yourself staying macro when you should be zooming in, build more structure around the information gathering divergent phases and develop better criteria for making decisions as you more to the convergent phases. Commit to the bit. Know the constraints, understand how and why they apply, and clearly define the opportunities. Gather data on both the voice of the customer and the process to understand how to best meet needs. Make these your decision making criteria. Use the data informed decision process to communicate to your team as well so that they don't go down rabbit holes exploring ideas that aren't high impact. Use priorities from your decision structure to help in value engineering. Now you can easily see where to invest vs. what to keep more basic.

Workplace Jealousy: Defeating the Green Eyed Monster 25:03

for 26 weeks siden25:03

25:03

As monsters go, Jealousy is one of the scariest. Nothing makes you feel less safe than being the target of someone's envy. You don't know who you can trust or what (mis)perceptions your coworkers might have about you. Listen in to learn how to thrash Ol'Green Eyes. Jealousy feeds on lack. Any situation where resources like a promotion, raise, leadership role, positive attention, etc. are scarce can spawn it. Jealousy uses confirmation bias as a weapon. When someone is jealous, they become blind to a person's good qualities and hyper fixated on their shortcomings. You can use Jealousy as a mirror. When you understand what activates it, you can gain a lot of clarity about the big picture and interpersonal dynamics. Comparisons with others give Jealousy superpowers. Comparisons to your past selves gives you superpowers as you appreciate how far you've come. Remember to factor in personal priorities so you see your whole life, not just your work life. Collaborations are a Jealousy repellent because they create "parallel" work opportunities help everyone play to their strength instead of wasting energy trying to one up each other.

Conflict Resolution: Understanding your Conflict Handling Style 23:51

for 26 weeks siden23:51

23:51

Conflict shouldn't produce a trauma response, but it so often does. If you find yourself fighting back like a vigilante hero, caving in while you silently stew, or running away from the issue (and people), you need to develop some better skills. Listen in to learn more. We all have different ways of responding to conflict based on how comfortable we are with encountering it. When it feels adversarial, a healthy response is hard to summon. When we believe in something, it's difficult not to get emotionally attached and feel personally attacked when that cause isn't accepted by others. Collaborative conflict handling helps to move past assumptions about the other party and move towards a better understanding of the issues underlying a position taken. The goal is to arrive at a solution that allows the best that can happen, not the best in your opinion.

How to Overcome Imposter Syndrome 21:58

21:58

You might not be a world class expert or the ultimate authority on an issue you care about. Maybe you can't teach the graduate level class on it. Guess what? Most people need the intro level information. And you can share it. In a way that's far more relatable and useful than most experts. Listen in to this episode to overcome imposter syndrome and leverage who you are and what you know. Imposter syndrome is most likely to inflict people who feel they don't belong. Yet your voice as a young professional, woman, minority reflects a much needed diverse and accessible point of view. You know you have Imposter syndrome if you've dealt with any of the following: fear of failing, fear of success/being too visible, perfectionism, analysis paralysis, overperfoming, chasing qualifications. Don't wait and hope for an opportunity. Make one for yourself by taking action instead of waiting for permission. Celebrate the little wins- they build momentum and provide you with the receipts that prove you are not a fraud.

Is Your Job Default or Deliberate? Find Work You Love Doing. 24:13

Stop being the pick me person. You know, the one who tries way to hard but still doesn't get the payoff. In this episode, you'll get the downlow on how to focus on what you want to be known for. There are no accidents. Your fear of success is the only thing blocking you from opportunities. Focusing on what you want to be known for is way different than ambition. It's your differentiator, your personal brand, how you are inspired to make a difference. Once you understand your brand, you can easily determine whether to say yes to an opportunity (even if it feels terrifyingly risky) or whether it's not the best use of your valuable time, talent and energy. When you communicate your brand, others start to bring you opportunities for things you actually want to do. Be clear about what you want, but open to the fact that it can look different that the way you thought it would. You will evolve as a person and your life circumstances will change, but your why will keep you consistently moving toward a life and job you love. Nothing is ever wasted. Every aligned action is helping to build the foundation of the success you want.

Leverage Your Motivation Style 25:06

Have you been accepting the premise that success is only about meeting expectations, validation and obligations? If you want a career in different areas, listen to this episode to learn what's really behind success: motivation. There are two types of motivation. Intrinsic motivation is all about the love of doing something while extrinsic is about earning a reward or avoiding a punishment. Our culture is set up on an extrinsic system, trapping many people into a life where they are disconnected from their passions because they are too afraid of what they can lose if they don;t do what's expected. We need both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation to be successful on our own terms. Learning your dominant motivation style and how to bring in your less dominant one when needed let's you live a balance life.

*womp womp* You walked out of that meeting feeling about 3" tall. Before you slide into depression or get angry, think about how you were an accomplice to your own misery. Today I'm talking about how I learned not to get triggered by imagined or real bad actors. Listen in to hear how I stopped being an accomplice to other people and shifted to being an advocate for my own success. Become better at listening and understanding others by being present, reading the room, having empathy and meeting others where they are. Verify that your understanding of someone's communication is correct and not distorted by the bias of your own assumptions. Mirror positivity: learn more by listening to Episode 108 Mirroring and Magnetism: Techniques for Positive Outcomes here https://architecting.podbean.com/e/mirroring/ You are an accomplice when you meet adversity with more adversity and multiply what you don't want. You are an accomplice when your insecurities or limiting beliefs cause you to accept the premise of someone's criticism and define your worth. You are an accomplice when your personal standards are low and make you available for poor treatment. Positivity leads to possibilities.

The 25% Rule to get You Through Even the Worst Day 22:20

for 34 weeks siden22:20

22:20

Having a no good, terrible, very bad day? In this episode, I answer a question from a member of our Architecting community on how to have more good days and how to be more gentle with yourself on those less than good ones. It's tempting to overgive on a bad day because you feel guilty, but that's the worst thing you can do because stress impacts your focus, cognitive ability, creativity and mood. Reserve 25% of your energy for self care each day. On a low energy or stressful day it's even more important to be gentle with yourself. Make a hard day easier by taking time to reset, prioritizing low key tasks that give you small wins and finding fun and enjoyable ways to keep momentum going like hand sketching or model building. Build up resources you can leverage. Delegate more to others and build up their skill sets, know who you can ask for help, hire support for errands, childcare, or homekeeping.

Does it seem like no one's hiring? Or that you can't find any good matches for your skill set? That's because skills only reflect competency, not value. Listen in for essential tips on magnetizing your dream job to you. Create the opportunity you want instead of chasing open listings and trying to conform to their descriptions. Get clarity on your why. When you talk about your skills through the lens of what you are passionate about, you differentiate yourself and add value. Show the receipts. Either share results from projects, or create mini exercises that pertain to your projects that let you apply your skills around issues you are passionate about and show what you learned. Understand the pain points of the industry, your clients and the company you want to work with. Do your homework to target your search and show how you fit and what could be possible through working together..

In these shaky economic times, it's really easy to want to stay in a job even when what you're doing might be blocking you from your true career path. In this episode, I'll help you rip off that security blanket and help you claim the opportunities you need to have an impactful vocation. Playing it safe is actually waaaay more stressful than chasing your dreams. You are allowing your energy to be drained instead of charged. Just because you are good at doing something, doesn't mean it fulfills you. Be like water and find a way to get where you need to go- no matter what. Even small moves make a big difference over time. Succeeding should feel normal, because you are meant to do this. Surround yourself with resources and people that want to see you succeed, not ones who shame you for dreaming big.

In this ask me anything session, hear my response to a member of the Architecting Community who is feeling a little less than creative lately. Learn my top rituals to restore your creativity and keep it flowing. Creativity ebbs and flow with your level of energy and inspiration. Don't expect a steady state or feel bad if you aren't always at max creativity. Minimize creativity killers. Look at things that are draining your physical, emotional, spiritual and mental energy and think about how to rest and recover from the toll they take. Look at the root causes of the things that are creating stress in your life. Cultivate a creativity ritual so that you can train yourself to feel more comfortable in creative flow. Your unblah ritual starts with re-regulating your nervous system with meditation/movement. Follow that up with brain dump time where you journal, doodle or sketch. Finish your ritual with DND creative time. Begin with 30 minutes and work your way up from there.

When is spilling some tea more than just some idle gossip? When you connect on the regular with a group of people who believe in having and holding for others big visions about what's possible. Listen in to learn more about how a genius group can uplevel your career (and life). Your life will match that of the people you spend the most time with. So surround yourself with those who make you feel inspired, can point you to resources, build your network and be a reliable sounding board when you're struggling. The difference between people who make a difference and those who don't is a willingness to take action. Your genius group can help direct that action and keep you motivated. Where you see obstacles, someone else sees a breakthrough. When you share your dreams with those who have already accomplished a lot, they seem a lot more doable than when you spend time with people who don't even understand why you want to evolve.

Oh yay- you accomplished something big! How fast can you stick a pin in that bubble to burst it? Collectively, we are so focused on what we haven't done (yet) that we forget to celebrate our wins and those of others. Here's why that's super bad to do. Every accomplishment deserves to be celebrated. By recognizing what's special and savoring it, you uplevel your point of view and can see even more ways to change the world while living your best life. Instead of worrying about whether you are worthy of a recognition, see it as a starting point not a destination. You now have agency to make an even greater impact. Don't fall prey to future tripping where you minimize what you did today. People who always hinge their happiness on the condition of a what they haven't done instead of what they have are on a hella future trip where success is never achievable. Make sure to clap up others for their wins. Help them see what's now possible instead of minimizing what they've done. You're not the same person after a win- you're a better and stronger one. Never let anyone shame you into thinking that you have a big ego because you upleveled.

Whether you are newly responsible for something, or trying like hell to delegate already, your biggest obstacle is overcoming fear (yes really). Listen to this episode to learn how to burst the experience bubble without creating bad blood. The experience bubble is the friction experienced when facing a learning curve. It can be scary to be confronted with this leading to behavior that inadvertently erodes trust in your work relationships. Some things that you might do if you are in an experience bubble are avoiding asking questions, not sharing work in progress to get feedback, only doing what you know will work and being defensive about criticism. If you are trying to delegate to someone in the experience bubble, avoid being authoritarian or disciplinary. Make sure that everyone knows they are working on a complex problem and that is will take iterations to get it right. Frame criticism as a question. Appreciate what the person is doing right.

Summer Break(ing): Escape the Burnout 21:09

for 42 weeks siden21:09

21:09

Burnout recovery involves more than just taking a break from stress. That's why so many vacations just make you wish you didn't have to head back to...wait! Could it be that burnout recovery is about creative restoration? Listen in to find out Burnout comes from having a lack of resources, over-dominance of mundane and routine tasks and no space for inspiration. Creativity is what gives us the resiliency to avoid getting burned out. Creativity requires energy, not just time. That energy comes from inspiration. Often the sources of burnout are little things that we tolerate or take on that add up to a burden over time. When you feel too exhausted, apathetic or afraid to pursue exploratory, transformational or combinatorial work, you have choked off your creative supply. You only see adversity, not challenge or opportunity. Restore your creativity by breaking the cycle and challenging yourself to do something different and adventurous.

Marketing Strategies to Build the Business You Want: Interview with John Tyreman 28:47

How amazing would it be to do work you are passionate about with colleagues and clients that share that passion every day? That can happen when you start leveraging your expertise and target your ideal clients. Sales is not a dirty word- without sales, you don't have an ability to do the work that makes a difference. Know the difference between work you want to do, and work you are able to do. Offering a specific service to a specific audience helps you increase sales to your ideal clients. Industry specialization is what gets you hired and helps you recruit a great team. Your differentiator is your technical expertise and marketing is how you make clients aware of it. Expertise is marketed through writing, speaking and networking. Think about how you can do each of these proactively when you aren't selling. Clients seek information sometimes years before they are ready to hire. In your marketing, speak to the "one person" who is your ideal client. Use the 3-5 year rule: think of content that would have helped you 3-5 years ago and share that with your one person.

Cringe is your sign that you have upped your game, don't let it be what holds you back from your potential. To do great things, you have to take big actions and see risk as an adventure.

Energy Conservation: High Performance without the Burnout 28:42

Work has changed. How we think about it has not. If you are feeling the friction of asynchronous schedules, pressure to respond to a 24 hour cycle of demands and the fallout of being stressed out, you need to listen to this episode. Stress is not a badge of honor- it's a cry for help that leads to poor performance in the short term and major physical and mental health issues over time. Modern fears trigger a stress response even though you might not be in physical danger. Catastrophizing puts you in survival mode where everything feels like a threat, robbing you of the creativity ad empathy most needed to deal with the situation at hand. Reestablish human connections and empathy for yourself and your team so that you feel safe being authentic and vulnerable. Understand how you want to prioritize the allocation of your resources of time, money and talent. If one feels out of balance, use the others to recalibrate. Setting clear boundaries is the most loving way you can interact with others.

Ask and educate- be willing to take a stand and call out the issues others may either not be aware of or not know that have the power to change. Find a community - the support as well as ways to collaborate, innovate and practice will 10x anything you will ever do on your own. Be willing to make yourself uncomfortable or you will never be motivated to take the big risks you need to to make the difference you feel called to make. Put yourself in a space to move past what you believe you can do. Space creates a precedent for living and we create space. Host a climate cafe and gain empathy for how others feel on the issue. look to unite not fight and foster empowerment and collaboration. Help people see that climate change isn't about big entities and government agencies, but about the actions they take every day.

Today, she shares how her interest in well being and quality of life translated to a career that makes a sustainability and resilience impact at the scale of the Everyproject.

How to Overcome Negative Bias 24:43

for 1 year siden24:43

24:43

Just because negative bias is a survival mechanism hardwired into your biology doesn't mean it's serving you. That's because the things you fear in modern life are a threat to your ego not your life. Listen in to learn how to train your brain to tell the difference so you can ditch lack based thinking and start thriving. A sign you're experiencing negative bias is a desire to fix something you fell isn't working "right." That focus on struggle and lack keeps you from seeing what is working right and celebrating the wins. Fear of being judged causes you to do and say what you think will make someone else happy. That is a self betrayal and it creates an inauthentic connection - a facade it takes energy to maintain while denying your own fulfillment and happiness. Fear of someone else failing causes you to micromanage their life. That deprives the person from learning about healthy failure and from their own growth. Fear of your own failure keeps you focused on maintaining what you have instead of getting what you want. Overcome negative bias by making the desired outcome (not your ego) the star of the show.

No Small Moves: Interview with Noam Platt 41:54

for 1 year siden41:54

41:54

If how you do anything is how you do everything, why think small? My guest Noam Platt talks about the value of the architect's skill set in solving problems at every scale. Learn why you need to do more than meet expectations and how a series of right actions can lead to making a big impact. Even the smallest details impact an experience. Question everything and look at ways to make it better. Design is a big mind problem- you don't have to figure everything out on your own Design with and for all of the communities your projects will serve. Let people from all parts of your life inform your career, forge alliances that can help you design better. It doesn't take super skills or a lot of time to make a big difference. It does take saying yes when you see a need. Your skills as an architect are too valuable to waste on projects that don't let you use them.

Organic Leadership: Interview with Graciela Carrillo 34:16

for 1 year siden34:16

34:16

Forging new paths doesn't require special skills or experience to get started. Graciela Carrillo shares her inspiring story of becoming an advocate for women, minorities, immigrants and young professionals in the architecture community. You don't make an impact by yourself. Build a container for others who care about an issue to join you. Together you inspire each other. Decide what you're passionate about. Find the data and use the numbers to show where and how you can make a difference (as well as the results once you take action). You qualify yourself. Say yes to things that matter to you because you bring value not just through expertise, but through the network you can build, people you can inspire, and message you can spread. Just telling your story will inspire others. Act in an organic way according to your priorities and opportunities will arise. Be willing to look at multiple scales and formats for sharing a message. Seek out mentors to help you grow. As you grow, others can grow along with you.
