Evolution of One

Overview of the article I published on 3vies (3vies.com/writing/feedback-loops). One of the biggest challenges for any human or company is learning how to effectively update their belief system. It's learning to introduce tiny new concepts and finding new paths. Change is a daily occurrence for those seeking progress . The first step in anything life-changing is becoming aware of one's des...

This an overview of a futurist paper I publish on 3vies (3vies.com/writing/future-of-value-exchange) exploring the evolution of compensation and value exchange ,  which is shifting from a measure of productivity to a reflection of alignment, access, and contribution. These shifts are transforming the very foundation of our economies. From extractive systems, measured by productivity and anchored i...

Carlos Becerra has had a profound impact on my life. As my high school art teacher, he was the first person to see my creative ability, and it changed me. We talk about his early years coming over from Honduras as a child, how he got into photography and photographed parts from the first space shuttle as a high schooler, his journey to become an art teacher, and more. Carlos has taught me so much,...

This is my conversation with the incredible Kori. I honestly have no idea how I came across Kori's work but in the first few seconds of reading her bio, I was so connected with her philosophy and mindset.

Had a random thought about why followers don't really matter that much. It's based on a documentary about how wealth grows. Made me realize how meaningless the idea of followers and likes really are because they are not scarce. It doesn't cost anything to follow millions upon millions of people. I wonder what would happen to the algorithms if we could have a bot make everyone follow everyone. Ulti...

My interview with the incredible Jonathan Weaver. OMG, I was so excited about this. I came across the anti blueprint project when I started researching Kickstarter book projects and I was instantly involved with this concept. As I mention in the interview I think Johnathan and I are kindred spirits. We are two people that have come to find power in the journey of discovering your own path and inte...

TL;DR 2:03 to jump straight into the conversation and skip the intro  This is part 2 of the 2 part conversation with Amy (for her backstory on how she became an author and artist check out part 1).  In this video, we dive rightist the details of how Amy published two children’s books. She details the steps you can take and points out the serendipitous events that played a role in her mak...

Amy Webb is an author and artist. She recently released her second children’s book (Book 1 - When Charley met Emma, Book 2 - Awesomely Emma) and both books are about a child with limb differences. They are wonderful books I highly recommend them. So this is part one of a 2 part discussion I have with Amy about her journey/path to becoming a published author. In this first part, we talk about her b...

Talking with McKenzie on this episode I think will really be very meaningful for a lot of people who resonate with her story. She never identified as wanting to own a business or work as a creative but here she is running her own business as a virtual assistant and you can as well. You can learn what you need to create the life and career you want as well. She is early on in her journey but I thin...

(TL;DR - Skip to 13:50 to jump right to the start of the critique) I have been working on a redesign of the 3vies logo and branding for a little over a year now. Not constantly but in-between projects or I have been constantly sketching things when ideas hot and trying new ideas. So this is me talking with my friend Oscar, who is a designer and all-around creative. The first part is my just talkin...

Anthony Francis is an artist, photographer, speaker, and educator here in San Antonio Texas. I recently came across his work and was so drawn to the incredible emotion and storytelling. I. have also come to find he is such a kind and open person. We sat down and talk about his journey as an artist and poet. We discuss how pivotal moments often reveal and refine you and Anthony share practical insi...

James Castro operates an incredible custom suit brand called Limatus Bespoke. I have been in love with this brand from day one. Every touchpoint is so thoughtful and intentional. I could tell before I ever spoke with anyone from the team that they really care about their customers. James was kind enough to sit down and talk through the ups and downs of running a luxury brand while navigating a glo...

I wanted to talk about the fact growing up it was never talked about the idea that I could be a stay-at-home dad and I really wish that idea would have been discussed. I wanted to talk about the fact that if I could I would love to stay at home and clean and help the kids with their school work. I think it's where I am most comfortable. As we break down gender norms I think it's really important t...

He decided to flip the script, sell all his stuff to live and work full time remote with no home base. I have long admired Jordan's unique perspective on the world, Mostly because it causes me t...
