  • Did you think shining bright was just about drawing attention to yourself? Let's change that channel right now. You have a purpose and when you live it unapologetically, the light you shine in service to others also lights up the career paths of other creatives who want to make a difference.

    Normalize success, knowing that anything you leave behind is in exchange or something so much greater. Fear of failure put a ceiling on your potential, keeping your light dim.When will the discomfort of being where you are today outweigh the comfort of the familiar?See how you can, not why you shouldn't

  • *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. Be an advocate for yourself instead of an accomplice in feeling bad.

  • 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..Drive commitment by sharing your expectations as well as who else you are talking with.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Perfection, once valued as a symbol of quality, is now suspect. It's not inspiring or inclusive. If you want an impactful career, let go of the perfectionism and embrace the cringe.

    Today is your starting line- no matter how you have succeeded or failed (learned), you get to next level each day.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.Take the pressure off by advocating for what you care about, being sincere, and knowing you aren't meant for everyone. Being authentically yourself lets you connect more powerfully to those you are meant to serve.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • If you only take wellness seriously when you are on the brink of a mental or physical health breakdown, that's not self care- it's repair. How about you make living your best life a non-negotiable? Listen to learn how.

    Pay attention to what you say you'd like to do ...one day. Often those are the things you need to prioritize in the here and now. Putting your happiness in the future stifles your desires, blunts your intuition and keeps your needs unmet.Create our own conditions to thrive. Understand your needs and be clear about the importance of them being met.You deserve to thrive- which means you need to walk away from people and situations that aren't a good fit and find a community that will respect, celebrate and challenge you to grow.No one ever found success running themselves ragged to meet other people's expectations.We defer our happiness because we secretly fear that is will change us but our well being is tied to our personal growth.
