    Deep Self Design with Sun (Kagami) Brown

    This episode we talk with Sun (Kagami) Brown, where we talk about: Deep Self Design. The Doodle revolution. Inner engineering. Gamestorming. Collaboration Literacy. Juicy messiness. Being a best friend to yourself. And my favorite: shoshaku jushaku (which in Zen Buddhism means; one continuous mistake). It would be easy to think of that last one as a negative, but in conversation with Sunni Brown you quickly learn that it’s a philosophy of “joy that trusts in productive discomfort”.  These are just some of the directions our conversation takes. Named one of the “100 Most Creative People in Business” and one of the “10 Most Creative People on Twitter” by Fast Company. Her TED talk has drawn over 1.6 million views and her work on visual thinking has been featured in every major U.S. publication including: The New York Times, The New York Post, The Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine, WIRED, and Entrepreneur. She has been featured twice on CBS Sunday Morning and on The TODAY Show.  And she is widely credited with the rise of #visualthinking (doodling!) as a tool for deeper inquiry and is #CEO of the Center For Deep Self Design. Listen or watch and enjoy this rich conversation about the intersection of our inner and outer worlds and why a “good life is an inside job”.

    Protopian World Building with Monika Bielskyte

    Most of us are likely very familiar with the ideas of dystopia and utopia as framing for what the future might look like, but Monika Bielskyte would submit they are still two sides of the same coin. Instead, she wants us to consider the in-between space that embodies all of the living world and consciousness—nature and human—where a different narrative takes place; a Protopian future that embodies livable & inclusive visions and is ever evolving. As a positive world builder, speculative designer and futurist, Monika has traveled and engaged with unfolding futures in more than 100+ countries - having left her homeland that no longer exists to explore the world that does. Being blessed (and cursed) with what she describes as “pathological curiosity”, her fascinating journey spans academia (CCA, CSM, Lund to name a few), to Hollywood (helping world-build the vision for Wakanda & working with directors like Ridley Scott), to time in Silicon Valley, where she experienced and witnessed dysfunctional and exploitative behaviors over and over again and realized the huge knowledge gaps among those shaping our current futures. Believing that there is a better way, she founded Protopia Futures, a platform for showcasing how transcultural, interdisciplinary and life-centric design approaches alongside disability and neurodivergence inclusion, can help us design a better world for most of humanity, and foster regenerative economies of the future.  Monika is not only fascinating, but in spending time with her you quickly realize that her vision of a Protopian future is one we all need; and in our case, want.
