    Ep 211 My Truth, Your Opinion w. Lina Sulga 3.0

    Lina Sulga returns for her third guest spot, and this one goes deep. We catch up on life, dive into the chaos of uncertainty, explore the power of surrender, and debate everything from doom scrolling to the true meaning of “cringe.” Throughout the episode, we navigate tricky conversations with curiosity, humor, and mutual respect—showing how it’s possible to communicate differences without division and even grow closer in the process. —————————————————————— 00:01:52 Lina’s Tricky Last Name 00:02:59 Catching Up on Life and Work 00:06:16 Navigating Uncertainty 00:12:25 The Power of Surrender 00:19:09 Discovering Internal Seasons 00:23:39 The Affects of Doom Scrolling 00:26:11 Debating on the Term “Cringe” 00:35:58 The Debate Gets DICEY 00:38:20 Truth vs Opinion 00:41:46 Thinking Pragmatically vs Internally 00:45:02 Creating Art With Symbolism 00:51:01 Too Pragmatic to Be Fully Spiritual 00:54:11 Extreme Trickster Energy 01:00:19 The Importance of Humor 01:02:17 Lina Discussing Clean Karma 01:07:51 Admiring People Who Speak Their Truth 01:12:07 Lina Clarifies What It Means to Be Cringe 01:18:08 Addressing Our Conversations 01:26:59 Craving Connection 01:34:16 Surviving Controversial Topics With Lina —————————————————————— WEBSITE | SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS —————————————————————— Lina Sulga https://www.instagram.com/sulga.art/ https://tap.bio/@sulga.art —————————————————————— G Terado —————————————————————— https://theartofgterado.square.site https://www.youtube.com/@MediaArtsandGTerado https://www.instagram.com/artofgterado/ https://www.instagram.com/theratedgpodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/ArtofGTerado

    Ep 210 Creating a Colorful Home w. Mehnaz Khan 3.0

    Interior decorator, color psychologist, and returning guest Mehnaz Khan is back for her third appearance—and each time she pulls up, the conversation gets deeper. In this episode, we talk about perfectionism, the balance between muse and motivation, and how our creative habits evolve over time. Mehnaz also opens up about a big life moment—her son heading off to college—and how parenting, family dynamics, and generational differences play into the way we show up in the world. From the impact of our environments on the subconscious to the tug-of-war between content creation and consumption, we cover a lot. Whether you’re an artist, parent, or just trying to live more intentionally, this episode is full of gems. —————————————————————— 00:03:92 Learning About Other People 00:04:21 Mehnaz on Perfectionism 00:11:04 Muse vs Motivation 00:15:06 Mehnaz’s Son is Off to College 00:20:14 Defining Different Generations 00:24:50 Cultural Stereotypes & Family Dynamics 00:29:56 Mehnaz on Parenting 00:40:33 Life-Work Structures & Sleep 00:53:25 Content Creation vs Consumption 01:05:11 Social Media Influence 01:17:12 Your Environment Affects Your Subconscious 01:33:11 Mehnaz on Blogging & YouTubing 01:43:31 Content for the Intellect 01:49:17 Starting to Use ChatGPT —————————————————————— WEBSITE | SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS —————————————————————— Mehnaz Khan https://www.instagram.com/yourcolorfulhome https://linktr.ee/YourColorfulHome —————————————————————— G Terado —————————————————————— https://theartofgterado.square.site https://www.youtube.com/@MediaArtsandGTerado https://www.instagram.com/artofgterado/ https://www.instagram.com/theratedgpodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/ArtofGTerado

    After 20+ years, I catch up with an old college friend from animation class!
