    004: Sustainable Living Through Design and Humble Beginnings w/ Moja Robinson

    From getting kicked out of art school and growing up poor selling hand-designed skateboard decks for lunch money to designing for notable artists and de-denitrifying cities through an upscaled tiny house project — Moja Robinson is a true renaissance man. Moja currently does work for Brotherhood, Athens LA, Hellion Skateboards, and Offshore Agency to name a “few”. He is a man of many hats — sustainability auditor, creative director, graphic designer, but just as importantly, a Human-being. _____ ________________________ HIGHLIGHTS: Veganism vs eating sustainably (01:58) Recycling misconceptions (4:23) Giving attention to social life no matter how busy you are (09:55) Getting kicked out of art school (11:55) De-denitrifying LA with upscale tiny houses (16:04) Smarter living and rebranding mobile communities (17:31) Pitching ideas as an introvert (21:12) Money motivated for the right reasons (23:12) Being rich to do more for others (24:08) Approaching celebrities as equals (28:09) Black males and femininity (31:05) Modeling tips (34:10) Undefining “Art” (39:33) Connecting to astrological items (40:58) Getting creative with textiles (45:22) If you’re not winning you’re learning (47:55) _____________________________ MENTIONED LINKS: Toolbox LA www.toolbox.la Offshore Agency www.offshore-agency.com Home by me www.home.by.me/en Waraire Boswell www.waraireboswell.com Hellion Skateboards www.hellion.world Brotherhood www.brotherhoodofficial.com Christion Lennon www.instagram.com/christionlennon Juxtapoz Magazine https://www.juxtapoz.com/news/photography/brandon-stanciell-reframes-blackness-and-masculinity-in-his-moving-new-series/ 37 N****s Projects / Brandon Stanciell www.heretakethese.us Jean Dawson www.instagram.com/jeandawsn Black Heart Studios www.blackheartstudio.com/ MPCo.

    003: Giving Solves All Problems

    You’ve already lost your competitive advantage if you are not giving. The spirit of giving is not just a time of the year, it’s the means to success. We are so focused on our own endeavors and agendas that we forget to look inward into our contribution to the world. Giving and generosity improve all aspects of life including performance at work, healthy relationships, and even the fight for garment labor rights. This episode, we uncover why giving is so important especially when tackling global problems. We dive into who contributes to fast fashion and who we need most to solve issues around mass garment consumption. _____________________________ HIGHLIGHTS: Ethical pop-up market + donations to multiple causes (00:20) Giving Tuesday…after days of consecutive consumption (02:13) When giving feels best (04:05) Regretting being generous (04:57) Top performance occurs when companies do this (06:30) One thing that will drastically improve results at work and in relationships (08:28) Practice taking less (09:35) Starting small + focusing on results over big dollar inputs (11:51) The paradoxical cycle of low-income workers and fast fashion (14:00) Can we ever get full visibility into garment factories?
