Questions/Topics in this Episode:
What are the major inflection points in your life that brought a change in the course of who you are? He started as a graphics designer & that biggest career shift was when he quit his job and started his own company giving him the feeling of being in line with who he really is.
Was this pre-all of that or was there a piece of this that was like in preparation for fatherhood? Not that fully ready yet, but had the opportunity to fully engage himself and live off what he is really passionate about.
When you created CDA, you wanted to help the communities in Idaho by impacting businesses and the way they thrive, is there an explanation behind it?
Given the statement that you are passionate about consulting, what is the scope of that consulting idea for you and what expertise do you have in assisting people?
"Take risks, if you succeed, you'll be happy; and if you fail, you'll be wise. And to me there's nothing worse than going through life having taken any risks and never failed at anything."-Chris
Where do you draw the line between taking risks and sticking to your skill set?
How do you relate to storytelling in the design process?
What are user experience laws and how do they work?
For you what is the idea of a creative thinker? What does that mean to you? And what roles in the industries fall into that vs those that don't?
What routines, roles, and tools make you more artistic? What do you do to exercise that muscle?
Why do think so many people in this world don't know what they want?
Everything that you're talking about in yoga and the experiences you have outside as a teacher, how does that affect you as a business owner and entrepreneur that is trying to create and design?
How to reach clarity in your life that doesn’t come right away?
