ARCHITECTING Podcast - Career + Lifestyle Mentoring for Architects looking to move beyond overwhelm and make a difference thr Angela Mazzi

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.

Feeling a little stuck in your quest to make a difference? Let's help you break your genius efforts out of projects and get them scaled up to where they can have an influence. How you ask? Listen in to learn about a little something something called an insight and how it can next level your career.
You can't keep pointing to the past by talking about what you accomplished on a project. Show how you are learning from what you did and continuing to evolve the issue. There is no cap to greatness, there is always more to discover.
Look at the adjacent possible and draw from other industries as a way to bring fresh perspective to the issue.
Challenge commonly held assumptions or beliefs about "how things work."

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.

World changers don't have time to stay in their comfort zone. Steffi Reyes-Thomas shares how she embarked on a path of climate advocacy and holistic design that has pushed her past what she thought she would ever be able to do.
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. Help people see that climate change isn't about big entities and government agencies, but about the actions they take every day.

Sure it's cool to work on a big, cutting edge sustainable project. Tiffany Broyles Yost has been there and done that. Today, she shares how her interest in well being and quality of life translated to a career that makes a sustainability and resilience impact at the scale of the Everyproject.
It doesn't have to be buzzworthy to make a difference. The incremental steps you take by helping clients see how sustainable measures can impact the other operational metrics they care about have a broad, cumulative effect on the environment.
You don't need a lot of experience to have an impact. Follow your interests and say yes to doing what aligns with them.
Be curious, meet and talk to people. By building your network, you attract opportunities. Leverage the experts in your firm or community as mentors or by offering to help them.
Your biggest growth happens when you take the biggest risks. See everything as a learning experience.
Never feel too overwhelmed to get started. Be confident in your core skill set, willingness to keep learning and desire to help others succeed in reaching sustainable goals.

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.
