Check then out on SHOPAssociation.org On this episode I connect with Charles Leon who has 30 years experience in design, and an extensive knowledge of neuroscience and the working of the creative mind.We'll get to all of that in a moment but first though, a few thoughts… * * *When I was nine years old my mom put me in a after school art program in a small little studio a few minutes walk from my school. Every Thursday afternoon, after my regular school classes were done, I would walk down the street, sit in an art studio and learn how to paint in oils. For the next 10 years this was a welcome change in my daily routine that became in some sense a safe place. A place where all the world's troubles or the typical challenges I was having as a teenager would disappear and I would spend a couple of hours focused on painting. My mom had recognized early on that I was pretty handy with a pencil and very interested in creative expression. She did her very best to make sure that I was continually engaged in creative processes whether it was doing Ukrainian Easter eggs or sketching and drawing or baking creative Christmas cookies.She was always there pushing the go button on creativity. As it turns out, she was actually a pretty good artist herself and later in her life she began doing decorative painting which she became exceptionally adept at and the house was full of wonderful pieces of her craftsmanship.My interest in art followed me through the first few years of high school and finally landing in a place where it was just time to decide where I was going to university and to which program I would go.My mom, recognized that I was firmly sitting on either side of the creative and scientific fence, 1 foot firmly in both worlds, and she suggested architecture since it seemed to combine both of my interests.While I was studying to be an architect I took every single drawing and painting course that I could possibly take, whether they were weekly freehand drawing studios or evening classes or sketching schools.These courses during my university years were a safe place there I had more confidence than in doing pretty much anything else.But it really wasn't until those years in university under the tutelage of a great art teacher Gerry Tondino that I really began to understand drawing and painting.It wasn't so much that I was learning technical aspects of drawing or painting but that I was more learning how to see rather than simply look at things.Gerry would say, ‘once you learn to see and draw what you actually se, rather than what ou think you see, the drawing takes care of itself.'I had deep respect for Gerry Tondino and I think I really finally learned how to deeply appreciate the world around me to see the color, texture and value relationships. To understand how objects exist within a context and it wasn't specifically the thing you looking at but everything around it that helped to define its edge.In college I would continue to take afterschool watercolor courses thinking that it was more convenient than painting in oils since there was a technical challenge of oil painting taking much longer to dry.There was something about the immediacy of watercolor that I liked. You had to think fast and plan. Watercolor was the process of painting in the shade and shadows leaving the white of the paper as the light and highlights. In oils, or now acrylic which I use almost exclusively, you are starting from the dark tones and building in layers to bring out the light.In watercolor there was equally some unpredictability and a learned skill of being able to get certain effects like running a clean wash of graduated blue for a sky over a background or how some pigments we opaque and others transparent, or how colors would interact with each other as water spread across the paper.I was taking workshops once and the teacher said to me “well it's clear you can draw and you've got, you know, a good hand, but I guess the question really is what do you want to say with the work that you create”That was a whole different way of thinking that I'd never really spend time with prior to that moment. I painted and drew simply because it was fun.What did I want to say?...And so I began to think pretty significantly about what message I wanted to convey or rather what stories the things that I drew or painted I might want to share with other people.It was interesting when I began to study architecture and think about design of places and things that I was drawn to the same question about what the architecture meant and what stories it would hold over the years that people would use it.I was always fascinated with traveling and standing within old buildings and wondering what the people wore when they were visiting here hundreds of years ago.What would they talk about. What was the news of the day or the politics what secrets were being not told as people visited and who came and went from within a building's walls.As I moved along my career, thinking about the stories that buildings would hold, it's perhaps not surprising that I somehow serendipitously end up in the world of brand experience place making,that the places that I would create for retailers would be imbued with a brand narrative and that somehow the buildings, stores or hotels would need to be able to demonstrate that subplot about who the intended user was, what their story was and how the place was a physical expression of both the person and the brand.Another experience while an architecture school was with a visiting professor and while I don't remember the exact project we were working on, I do remember her saying a phrase including the word “hodological”Hodological refers to the study of pathways or connections. It's used in fields of neuroscience sometimes thinking about the pathway and connections between neurons and synapses how signals move from one place to the other how information is shared across brain functional areas – In psychology it talks about things like paths in a person's life space and in the world of philosophy it might be considered to take in things like the interconnection between ideas a pathway between thought exercises and where one thought leads to another and what conclusions we might draw from that that decision making treein terms of geography it's really is about actual paths, walking paths for example, connection paths between geographic locations thing like trade route pathsThe interesting thing about the word hodological is not just that all these years later I clearly recall that word but that it also seemed to me that the idea of ‘transition' - moving from one place to the other - was very much a part of experience - that we don't stand still in buildings or public squares or on streets, we move and as we move, we naturally have a different experience at every moment.Sure, there's a gestalt experience of being in Times Square for example but every time we take a step our perspectival view of the context around us ends up changing and every moment technically speaking is also new,We're are clearly taking in some constants in sensory input but our point of view within that context ends up changing.I love this idea of walking through space and experiencing it differently with every step. Every step is a different vantage point to learn something new to see something from a different angle. In a broader sense, my fascination with the nature of change totally aligns with the idea the early -learned term – hodological.Pathways of change. Change through experience or experience through change. We may think that buildings don't change, but they do, albeit in some cases slowly. And over their lifetime they may be experienced be multitudes each one leaving and taking away a story.Transitions are important. I might suggest that all the good stuff happens in the in betweenness of moments in time, places and things. Transitions are where learning lives.Transitions become important as experience makers. So, things like stairs become fascinating places for architectural study. It's not surprising that many of the great architects also spend time designing stairways so that transitions between floors were less about a practical matter of moving your body up to a different level, but could be seen as an opportunity to experience new things along the way. An experiential moment that requires the person's commitment, to willingly give them self over to the idea of change. Cities have memories and our bodies have memories of cities. Buildings have memories and our bodies have memories of buildings.I have expressed before that I believe that there's very much a ‘give and make' of experience - that we interact and share with the built environment around us and it affects us as well. We and the environments we spend time in are deeply connected and our experience lives within us, within our bodies, not just within our heads. Our experience of building leaves within us a body memory, a narrative residue of how we felt while in one place or another.If you look at buildings overtime and understand that they've been used for years, they too have held countless numbers of stories of people that used them. Where they came from. Where they would go back to. Maybe they were transitioning through for a moment. Maybe they were lost and ended up taking a wrong turn and discovering something new.Those stories of buildings are interesting because it gives a life to architecture beyond stone, steel and glass. And this is where my guest Charles Leon comes into the story. Charles is a writer and illustrator of Sketch Journals, including The Kew Sketch Journal. He is an international speaker and trainer on the Creative Process and how Applied Innovation actually works. With more than 30 years experience in design, and an extensive knowledge of neuroscience and the working of the creative mind, Charles brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to helping organizations and individuals overcome Innovation Stagnation to achieve Creative Breakthrough.During the COVID pandemic Charles had a challenge simply staying inside while all of us were held up in our homes for months. With sketchb ook in hand, Charles saw London England as a hodological space – one to be experiences not in the scientific, objective and measurable sense of streets of a certain distance ad width, buildings of a certain height, pathways connecting purpose driven users or as seen from a 3d person sense but more in the Jean-Paul Satre sense aptly described in Satre's essay, "Sketch for a Theory of Emotions," where his city was to be experienced in a lived-existential subjective sense. One in which he would travel daily, which sketchbook in hand, not always sure about the destination but certain that the path would be one of discovery, connection, and collecting through drawing and painting the memories of the buildings he encountered along the way.The output of these wanderings yielded 5 volumes in drawings and paintings of learnings about the buildings, their architectural details as well as the stories they revealed from within their walls… * * *ABOUT DAVID KEPRON:LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/david-kepron-9a1582bWebsites: https://www.davidkepron.com (personal website)vmsd.com/taxonomy/term/8645 (Blog)Email: david.kepron@NXTLVLexperiencedesign.comPersonal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidkepron/NXTLVL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nxtlvl_experience_design/Bio:David Kepron is a multifaceted creative professional with a deep curiosity to understand ‘why', ‘what's now' and ‘what's next'.

When we become aware of our innate human nature and stop trying to control something that isn't controllable, we can break away from the mental prison we often find ourselves in and start to recognise that we have more freedom than we thought. Carly draws on the wisdom of psychotherapist, Irvin Yalom and existential philosopher, Jean-Paul Satre to help you gain insight into your human nature and recognise the freedom you have to choose how you live your life.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We are always making choices, whether through action or avoidance (inaction). Not choosing is still a choice. This week, Carly Taylor highlights key concepts from the French philosopher, Jean-Paul Satre, who reminds us that freedom isn’t just about opportunity; it comes with the weight of responsibility of our choices.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's Valentine's Day and I couldn't think of anything more romantic to talk about than polyamory. Recently, it's been having a cultural moment and in this episode, I question if open relationships create an illusion of freedom. To help answer that question I read the latest in poly “feminist” discourse, Molly Roden Winter's novel, More: A Memoir of Open Marriage. I compare her relationship to Simone De Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Satre's and read an excerpt from The Woman Destroyed. After that, we investigate what primal panic is and how it's activated in non-monogamous relationships by reading Polysecure by Jessica Fern.

Jean-Paul Satre, a French Philosopher had said, "The other is the hell". The perception and conception of 'the other' is an illusion that creates a lot of misery in life. Yes, we are individuals, collectives, and even ONE. At different states of mind, and consciousness we can experience ourselves as individuals, collectives, and one. But somehow we are living the idea that the problems are created by others and we need to fight them, protect ourselves from them, compete with them...'The Other' never lets us be at peace. ====== Join me in a 30 min meditation session every day at 7 AM CET on my website: https://www.dhyanse.com/live/ Each session is unique, starts with a 5-10 min discourse, followed by 20 min Guided Meditation.

Today is an invitation to step into your own evolution - and it's Human Rights Day and Nobel Prize Day! In the SEVENTH step in coaching your negative emotions with Julia Seal, discover what it means to evolve as an individual, what conscious evolution is and why our EMOTIONAL EVOLUTION is the essential next step to our individual and collective happiness and success. Here we explore what is the real opportunity available to each of us when it comes to our negative emotions - how they are the way into our transformational self-development, the path to leveling up our mindset, habits, daily routines, relationships and actions. We journey to the Galápagos Islands with a man of "enlarged curiosity" to find out more about the evolutionary process of tortoises and finches to see what we can learn about our own self-growth. Then with the help of leading positive psychology researcher, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, best-selling author Paulo Coello and a Pennsylvania management consultancy, we consider what it means to be the best version of ourselves, stepping into our Genius and fulfilling our Personal Legend, our destiny. Take up the challenge to evolve beyond the way your brain is structured, beyond the behavioural patterns you've learnt from people around us and beyond what you absorb every day from life around your. Move beyond your stuck point of no progress, your primal dissatisfaction with life, your unhappiness... "It isn't freedom from. It's freedom to" - Jean Paul Satre, philosopher There really is no better time to do this work together!

In the end, it is the relationships that create the culture that becomes an organization’s ultimate competitive advantage. Through 15 clear and actionable practices, Davis describes the most common relationships pitfalls that negatively affect personal careers and organizational results. He shares the key tools for improving relationships by focusing on our own behavior to get better as individuals. By looking at our own thoughts, attitudes and actions, we improve the quality of our interactions with others and increase our ability to influence those around us in our professional and personal lives, leading to greater success and achievement for all. Ideal for professionals at all levels of business, from intern to CEO, Get Better draws upon Davis’ thirty-years of experience observing, leading, and coaching others and shares real-world stories and relatable experiences to illustrate the timely lessons and take away for achieving the most effective business relationships. In his engaging, often witty style, Davis’ proven practices influence individuals to take ownership of their work, improve the quality of interactions with others, and master the skills of effective relationships at work and at home. Some of the crucial lessons readers will learn include: “Wear Glasses That Work” – understand the quality of relationships and how to evaluate them “Carry Your Own Weather” – look inward instead of outward, determining your own attitude based on what you value, no matter what storm happens to break overhead “Behave Your Way to Credibility” – take the long-term approach to earning credibility “See the Tree Not Just the Seedling” – recognize potential in others and help them to succeed “Think We, Not Me” – come together and leverage the strengths of all “Avoid the Pinball Machine” – differentiate between urgency and importance to increase productivity and avoid unnecessary chaos “Humility" – understand the benefits of humility and how to cultivate it to increase energy for others and build solid character and meaningful connections TODD DAVIS BIO: Todd Davis is the author of FranklinCovey’s book, Get Better: 15 Proven Practices to Build Effective Relationships at Work.

I’ve previously written about Simone de Beauvoir’s book The Second Sex and the recently published book At The Existentialist Café- Freedom, Being, and Apricot Cocktails, but not about Jean-Paul Satre. He was an author of not only philosophical texts but also novels and plays, which have continued to be popular as intellectual sources of debate and entertainment. He began writing in the mid-1930s and became a popular author, particularly with Being and Nothingness, an investigation of consciousness and existence, incorporating the phenomenological method of Husserl. Another work, Nausea, described the sense of distance and uncomfortableness that results from a potentially meaningless and chaotic world, and the aim of a productive existence that results.
(*This podcast was recorded during the 2016 holiday season but released in January 2017 due to a technical snafu. That said, the lessons we talk about apply even after the holidays.) We are all filled with self-doubt. Sometimes it's an occasional thing and sometimes it's a constant in our lives. And that sucks. Today's episode deals with self-doubt and the penchant we have as human beings to be critical of ourselves and how to combat it. It's clear that confidence is one of the single biggest predicators of happiness and success in our lives. The more confident we are, the more successful & happier we usually are. And if you want to learn how to build confidence you have to get self-doubt out of your life. In this episode I talk about a fascinating thing that happened to me at crossfit and how one person was able to change my perspective and stop my negative self-talk in it's tracks. You'll also hear some tips about surviving the holidays which can be applied any time of the year. Links from the show: Unni Notebook - this is the one i use now and love it. Great paper, soft cover, ink doesn't bleed through. If you're a notebook geek like me this puppy is awesome Tools of Titans - I've highlighted or outlined so much of Tim Ferris' new book it looks like my 9th grade history book. UNLIKE my 9th grade history book, this book is packed with tons of advice and tips that make it well worth the read. The Schwarzenegger and Dilbert Comic parts are fantastic. Daily Rituals - Ever write a best seller naked on top of refrigerator? Tom Wolfe has. Jean-Paul Satre drank a quart of wine a day and paired it with coffee and handfuls of barbiturates to help him write. This book is laugh out loud funny and overall astonishing. If you think you're weird in any way, pick this book up. You will not be disappointed. Crossfit Society - This is the crossfit place I've been going to for the last 2 years. Lots of lessons learned, lots of great friendships made. If you're anywhere in SoCal it's worth checking out.
