We talk about Jean’s love for bold art, how to create a “Zen” kitchen, Jean’s great house with a great room, and much more. What You’ll Hear on This Episode: How to start enjoying art in your space. What is an art trainer? Jean’s unconventional path to a career in design. How Jean created a Zen kitchen. What Jean recommends for designing with kids in mind. Jean used to stalk her current house from afar…and one day she finally got it! What was Jean’s process for designing her own home? Designing a great room with different functions. Strategies for reusing furniture when moving to a new space. What motivates people to take on a brand-new style? How to make warm spaces in rooms that aren’t inherently cozy. Decorating Dilemma  Hi Laura, Yes, definitely take the symmetry into account and we have three recommendations for you. First, is to consider adding a linear fixture over your island that runs the length of the island. This will help detract the eye from the lack of symmetry and the true center of the room. Another option, given your husband’s height, would be to use a flush mount or semi flush mount throughout the kitchen. We love the Greta fixture! Finally, the last option we suggest is using gooseneck sconces over your window to let the lighting be handled through recessed cans throughout. What direction your windows are facing and the natural light you get may influence your choice. We usually recommend with any kitchen remodel that you strongly consider adding LED under cabinet lighting. You could also add some small lamps or tiny accents to your surfaces. We are all big fans of having dimmers for all lighting, as well! One thing to keep in mind is that you’ll never really be looking at the room straight-on, so it won’t be as noticeable as you may be worrying about. It’s great that you’re keeping it in mind, but don’t let it trip you up too much! Good luck, Laura! Mentioned in This Episode: Jean Liu Design Jean Liu Design on Instagram Jean’s Personal Home

“Generally speaking, I think it’s at one level no different for men and women. If you’re in a comfortable place, sometimes it’s hard to be willing to become uncomfortable, but if you want to do great things, it’s going to take doing that through life.” - Jean Case When setting out to investigate the core qualities of great entrepreneurs and changemakers, today’s Finding Brave guest discovered traits that they all had in common. You’ll hear how it isn’t wealth, privilege or even genius, but rather how they choose to make a “big bet,” take bold risks, learn from their failures, reach beyond their bubbles, and let urgency conquer fear. Jean Case, the Chairman of the National Geographic Society and CEO of the Case Foundation, is a philanthropist, investor and internet and impact investing pioneer who advocates for the importance of embracing a more fearless approach to innovate and bring about transformational breakthroughs. She is the author of the new book, Be Fearless: 5 Principles for a Life of Breakthroughs and Purpose. Her career in the private sector, including as a senior executive at AOL, spanned nearly two decades before co-founding the Case Foundation in 1997. Under her leadership, the Case Foundation has been recognized for its innovative efforts to address significant social challenges, harnessing the best impulses of entrepreneurship, innovation, technology and collaboration to drive exponential impact. In addition, Jean currently serves on the boards of National Geographic Partners, Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure (ABC2), the White House Historical Association and BrainScope Company, Inc. as well as on the advisory boards of the Brain Trust Accelerator Fund, Stanford Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society and Georgetown University’s Beeck Center for Social Impact and Innovation. What Jean shares today demonstrates that all of us can do extraordinary things. It really just takes understanding that action and commitment is key as is starting where you are and taking the small, empowering steps that will lead you towards the realization of your big idea.

In this week's episode of the Creative Introvert podcast I talk to Jean Smith, social and cultural anthropologist and social intelligence coach. This podcast is BY FAR the one I've most hesitated to publish because… I get coached. I don't get coached on something you might expect either - not a topic we normally tackle on the podcast, but one I've been really hoping to, because it undoubtedly effects pretty much everyone at least if you're… single.   What we talked about: What challenges Jean sees most introverts have in common when it comes to flirting and meeting new people The H.O.T.A.P.E. technique for flirting Jean's advice for introverts who want to meet people but don't know where to look What Jean thinks of online dating for introverts What Jean recommends we do in order to get talking to a stranger How you can tell if someone is flirting Some common myths around flirting First dates - do's and don'ts for introverts   Links mentioned Flirtology Jean's TED Talk   You can leave a rating and review on iTunes (here's how to do that) and I will be as happy as a lamb frolicking in sunshine (or sob into my pillow, depending on what you write.)
