Early thoughts and how it could benefit the higher seeds - Unpacking what Alex Lodise said on Wednesday about his ACC player of the year and defensive player of the year awards. - Lulu offers some perspective on Lodise's season compared to other great FSU shortstops of the last 25-30 years like Stephen Drew and Taylor Walls.

Olly, Guillaume, and Faisal talk with fellow clubhouse architects on what we think of the platform so far and what's next for clubhouse? Guests including Mike LaValley, Tim Ung, Stephen Drew, Georgi Lechtarski, Mamuna Rashid, and Jason Boyle.

Midst July after hosting a room on Clubhouse I was invited to join Michael Riscica on his podcast to talk about life, the Architecture Industry and building the Architecture Social. Here is the description from the episode:Some people take a long and winding route to realize that architecture is the field for them. Stephen Drew is not one of them. He always knew that he wanted to be an architect. He did temporarily entertain the idea of becoming a doctor, but his love for drawing and designing won out. Even his friends always assumed that he would become an architect. Stephen was passionate about graphic design and geography, which is an unusual combination. He went to the University of Westminster – that was his first time in London. He graduated into the global economic crisis and was worried about finding a job. Encouraged by a friend (who is now a famous You Tuber), he sent out a large number of CVs and ended up landing a job in a top firm as his first job.In today's episode, Stephen talks about his experience working in recruiting for architecture firms. He explains what architects need to understand about recruiters and also talks about the ins and outs of finding a job as an architect. Stephen also discusses the project that he started during the pandemic, Architecture Social. He explains what it is, how it started, and why it's interesting to young architects. Listen in to hear Stephen's thoughts on the word community, what he thinks about the Clubhouse app, and his advice for architects applying for jobs. What You'll Hear on This Episode: What inspired Stephen to pursue a career in architectureWhere Stephen went to architecture schoolWhat happened after architecture schoolWhat Stephen is doing todayWhat the recruitment process looks like for StephenHow Stephen feels about doing recruitment workArchitecture SocialWhat Stephen thinks about ClubhouseThe use of the word communityStephen's advice for aspiring architectsWhat Stephen knows now that he didn't know thenThe book that changed everything for StephenStephen's favorite resource, product, or gadgetStephen's best time saving trickHow listeners can find StephenTop Three Takeaways from This Episode:It's important to understand the recruiter's role.Understand what community really means.Become a better version of yourself.Stephen's Advice for Aspiring Architects:“It always changes over time, but the things that I think are constant is that don't worry about whatever other people are doing but hold yourself accountable and keep pushing yourself.Favorite Quotes:“Don't doubt yourself too much.” – What Stephen knows now that he didn't know then.“A book that's been really helpful is How to Win Friends and Influence People.” –The book that changed everything for Stephen “I would love to say it's not a mobile phone, but the mobile phone is both a blessing and a curse.” –Stephen on his favorite resource, product, or gadget“I'm not a list person, OK?

In today's episode, architect Stephen Drew discusses recruitment, job hunting, and Architecture Social.

This week, I am speaking to Stephen Drew founder of Architecture Social, an online platform filled with fabulous content, resources, and tools to help young architects (and old architects) find new jobs and stand out from the crowd. In this episode, Stephen discusses how he came up with the idea and how he has been nurturing that platform. Stephen is a trained architect. He has a degree in architecture and his Part II from the Manchester School of Architecture. He then worked in practice for a while but found himself moving towards the recruitment consultant world, something more fitting to his personality. He documents, in this conversation, how that transition occurred and what his current positions have been. Today, he is the Head of Talent at Ackroyd Lowrie, and he is involved in helping architecture practices find the best talent possible.

Will Ridgway joined the Architecture Recruitment team at the beginning of 2019 which was led at the time by me (Stephen Drew!). A blank slate and keen to learn, Will was new to the Architecture scene and had not recruited in any industry before. Join us to discuss learning the ropes of the Architecture Industry, dealing with the pandemic as well as joining me on the wild ride of the Architecture Social from the beginning.We also shed light on what we believe it takes to be successful, what the best candidates do consistently as well as how to stand out in the job market when looking for your next step in your career.

What a delight it was to chat with Camino Pilgrim and Author,  Stephen Drew. His book, Into the Thin: A Pilgrimage Walk Across Northern Spain,  is a very vulnerable account of how the Camino helped him navigate the aftermath of a very dark year where he faced several major losses. Stephen is such a wise guide for all Pilgrims and especially for anyone that has faced loss. Stephen's story really touched my heart and helped me gain a better understanding of my own grieving process. From the start of this interview, you'll hear that Stephen's call to walk was not the typical story we are used to hearing. I hope you will give this episode a listen as I think it will be of great benefit to those who are still processing their Caminos or are considering walking someday.

Ever thought about what other routes architecture could take you? Join the discussion between Stephen Drew of Architecture Social and Karina Armanda, both of who have chosen an alternative path in the industry.Your Hosts: Stephen Drew & Karina Armanda. 

In his upcoming pilgrim memoir, Into the Thin: A Pilgrimage Walk Across Northern Spain, author Stephen Drew (www.authorstephendrew.com) narrates how he was called to the Camino Francés in the wake of a year that he characterizes as an "emotional crucifixion." In this extended discussion of his journey, Stephen speaks to companionship on the Camino, his processing of guilt, shame, and more personal tragedies than anyone should have to endure, and the insights he ultimately arrived at in Finisterre. Ultimately, it's the story of a walk through the thin places on the Camino de Santiago, a walk towards love and away from guilt and shame.
