Street Photography + Capturing Truth with Steven John Irby Jul 15, 2020

Show notes

Steve John Irby, aka Steve Sweatpants, is a renowned street photographer and cofounder of Street Dreams Magazine, a beautiful zine that is unlike anything of it's kind featuring up and coming photographers and crowd sourced photography in beautiful layouts and stories.

The majority of Steve's photographic work is derived from the endless source of inspiration found in his home turf in NYC with intriguing travel logs to round out what has become an insanely compelling portfolio that is behind his rapidly emerging recognition in the photojournalism community. Most recently his photography around the racial equality and BLM movement has been published in incredible places like GQ and the New Yorker.

Of course, we dive into Steve's journey from working in retail & playing video games to being on assignment for GQ and others. We also get into:

The meaning of no and how it can both set your back and more importantly, fuel your work
Sources of inspiration, motivation, and learning.
Developing a personal style, and how to determine the stories to tell
and so much more...

Creative Calling Book Club: Session 3 of 6 Jul 13, 2020

Show notes

Creativity has never been more important. Art, creative expression, and creative solutions are required to create our future, and the world we want to live in.

This is session #3 of a 6-week mentoring series on CreativeLive to put our creativity into action. Though this series is based on the IDEA framework in my book, Creative Calling, you don't need to have the book to participate.

Some topics we will explore in this series:

why creativity, why now
the creative mindset and how to de-program messages that are not serving us
making time and space to create
developing resilience and courage to share work
finding and building a community to support and champion you

This might be your most creative time- or it might not. Maybe it's about reinvention, or maybe it's just about getting out of bed and dealing with the day. No matter where you are along the process, together we can keep going. We'll start from wherever you are. Let's cultivate a life that resonates, that feeds your soul, and brings you joy.

Steve Aoki: Creativity, Community and No Days Off Jul 08, 2020

Show notes

Society would have us believe that we're just supposed to know what we're meant to do in our life, but it's not true. It's only through action - taking small steps every day - that the bigger picture is revealed.

That is something that my guest, Steve Aoki, shares on this episode of the show. He's one of the most prolific, renowned DJ and music producers in the world. He's been nominated for multiple Grammys and known for his high-impact experiential live performances. Steve is also the founder of the record label, lifestyle company, and apparel line Dim Mak, which has helped launch bands like Bloc Party, Klaxons, and the Gossip.

Relentless hard work has Steve averaging more than 250 tour dates per year playing to thousands. But it's his wisdom and resilience from his community, his family, and a DIY culture that keeps him inventing and reinventing what's possible when we dream big but start the journey one step at a time.

Exponential Living with Sheri Riley Jul 06, 2020

Show notes

One of the things I love about this show is the opportunity to share with you things I'm learning, listening to, and taking inspiration from. Today's show is no different. My guest today is Sheri Riley. After 20 years of creating really innovative marketing fo Usher, TLC, Toni Braxton, Converse, the NBA, BMW, and Turner, to name a few, she now serves as an Empowerment Speaker and Life Strategist.

Not too long ago, Sheri joined us at the CreativeLive studios for her class, based on her book Exponential Living. In a world that's a bit out of sorts right now, this her message could not be more timely. So I wanted to share a few segments of her class that I really resonated with me around three topics:

1- What is our definition of success. So many of us are striving and working hard toward success. But Sheri helps us ask ourselves, WHAT is the success we are actually seeking. Too many of us are listening and even living someone else's definition of success.

2- Peace is Power. Our busyness, stress, anxiety leads to emptiness and what Sheri helps us tap into is the grounding sense of peace to remain present in the moment, to allow moments of reflection, and tap into an inner strength of who we are.

3- How to build lasting confidence - If drive is a protective strength, Confidence is our vulnerable strength. It gives us courage to be.

These are just a few powerful topics in her class. Of course, if you'd like to check out the full class, it's available on CreativeLive at https://cr8.lv/ExponentialLiving

Risk, Fear, and the Art of Chill with Jimmy Chin Jun 24, 2020

Show notes

It's a very rare occurrence when my man Jimmy Chin is in one place for any length of time. But in these pandemic times, he finds himself adventuring in his backyard in Jackson, WY and staying close to home with his family. Of course I had to seize the opportunity to finally sit down and check-in on his whirlwind career.

Jimmy Chin is an Academy Award winning filmmaker, National Geographic photographer and mountain sports athlete known for his ability to capture extraordinary imagery and stories while climbing and skiing in extremely high-risk environments and expeditions. A longtime member of The North Face Athlete Team, he has led dozens of exploratory expeditions and completed first ascents around the globe, working with the best adventure athletes in the world. In 2006, he became one of the only people to ski off the summit of Mount Everest.

In this conversation, we cover a lot of ground. From humble beginnings as a dirtbag photographer, Jimmy's first big break, mentorship, balancing family and life on the road, to international recognition for his films Oscar Shortlisted Documentary 'Meru' and 7x Emmy Award Winning and Academy Award for Best Documentary 'Free Solo', and the lessons along the way.
