Sta jij je mannetje in moeilijke situaties? Denk je vaak: ik doe het wel alleen? Oordeel je snel en makkelijk (over je zelf en anderen?) Leef je veel in je hoofd? Trek je je terug of zit je op slot als het lastig wordt? Vind je het moeilijk om emoties te tonen?Ik verhard makkelijk in moeilijke situaties. Als dat niet te lang duurt, is er heus niet zoveel aan de hand. Hard zijn brengt me verder, zorgt dat ik kan blijven staan of weer opkrabbel en dat ik 'Hup!', dóór kan gaan. Maar als ik niet terugschakel, en blijf hangen in die hardheid, kost het me teveel. Dan verkramp ik letterlijk en figuurlijk en wijs ik mezelf af. Dan ga ik uit verbinding met mezelf en met anderen. En dat is nooit de bedoeling van het leven. Dat wil geleefd worden. En liefde wil stromen. Rug recht, hart open. Verzachten dus! Maar hoe doe je dat eigenlijk?

Afgelopen zomer zaten Frits en ik flink in de shit. Er was een joekel van een relatiecrisis en ik stond al met een been buiten. Een heftige en donkere periode, vreselijk.Gelukkig was er hulp. Die zei: "Als je nu stopt zonder het aan te gaan, ga je straks met een nieuwe partner hetzelfde doen/krijgen. Wat er ook gebeurt, zie dit als een investering in jullie zelf waar je de rest van je leven wat aan hebt." We gingen het aan. Weer. En hoe. Dit keer écht, tot het gaatje. Het was intens confronterend, zwaar en moeilijk en leverde ons uiteindelijk de wereld op. We zijn weer leuke mensen voor onszelf en voor elkaar. Kunnen elkaar weer zien. De rust, plezier en lucht zijn terug en de liefde stroomt vrijuit. En nu? De crisis is voorbij, de hulp is er nog. Nog een boel te leren en integreren. En genieten van hoe het nu gaat. Het klopt echt, wat ze zeggen...Never waste a good crisis.

Bringing a building design from concepts and renderings to a completed facility is a complex and technical process. Playing a major part in making it happen is BWBR's Dan Hottinger, Principal and Professional Services Director, who describes his role as “the bridge between design and putting the design in motion.” In this episode of Side Notes, he shares the latest innovations and challenges he sees facing the AEC industry—and how professional services can help.If you like what we are doing with our podcasts please subscribe and leave us a review!You can also connect with us on any of our social media sites!https://www.facebook.com/BWBRsolutionshttps://twitter.com/BWBRhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/bwbr-architects/https://www.bwbr.com/side-of-design-podcast/

Skip the checkbox mindset—this conversation shows how performance design becomes real when specs, codes, QA, and sustainability pull in the same direction. We sit down with Rachel Spiers, Associate Principal and Performance Design and Quality Manager at BWBR, to unpack a practice that moves beyond “less bad” and aims for regenerative outcomes. From office master specifications aligned with the AIA Materials Pledge to code updates that raise the industry floor, Rachel shares a playbook for teams who want better buildings without ballooning cost or schedule.We walk through the nuts and bolts of integrating a sustainability lens into design development and construction document QA, capturing metrics like energy use intensity and lighting power density, and laying groundwork to review daylighting, embodied carbon, and operational carbon. You'll hear how a performance baseline meeting at project kickoff creates shared targets, builds sustainability muscle memory, and turns intent into habits that survive the messiness of delivery. Along the way, specs stop being paperwork and become the engine room where healthier materials and lower-carbon choices quietly upgrade every project.What stands out most is the human side: coaching teams through code changes, celebrating wins when designers bring solid code research, and watching colleagues earn credentials and confidence. If you care about design excellence, product health, resilience, and measurable performance, this is a field guide to making it stick—one smarter default and one aligned review at a time.

Of course, it wouldn't be Side Notes without some laughs along the way. From joking about Josh's 19th wedding anniversary dinner plans to Arch roasting branded golf balls he couldn't wait to “hit into the woods,” their banter sets the stage for an honest, insightful, and surprisingly fun conversation about finances, faith, and what really matters.
