On this episode of the High Flow Lifestyle we talk with Gretchen Wiese an actress, artist and fellow flow fanatic and go deep on topics like trauma and flow and explore empathy as a flow trigger  

Gretchen Wiese is not a neuroscientist, PhD, or any type of doctor, 

nor has she ever played one on TV. She is, though, an actress 

and artist obsessed with learning, human potential, 

expression, understanding, behavior & movement, 

and all things story where the places in the heart can 

connect, and heal. And laugh. So yeah, all things FLOW. 

She’s lived as an athlete, coach, teacher and student. She’ll 

forever live as a survivor of childhood abuse and trauma and is a 

hunter of healing - personal and universal, but sincerely 

hopes Lyme Disease, brain infections, concussions and 

seizures will one day be a thing of her (and everyone’s) 

ancient past. 

She’s currently working on a one woman show and book that 

 investigates the journey(s) from victim to survivor to full- 

blown-grown-up-human-champion and the ensuing adventures in adversity and humanity, healing, and flow. And, of course, 

the messy, sometimes vomit-y contours of stuff in between. You know, life. 

INSPIRE.EMPOWER.LOVE.TRUTH.

Dropping into other people’s experiences, or interconnecting experiences, and internalizing them. Empathy as a way of flow. ..

Hey flow fanatics, on this episode of the High Flow Lifestyle podcast we’re going to be talking about a starting point for accessing flow with 6 tips for cultivating curiosity for flow.  

 Can Curiosity be learned? Curiosity is actually an innate quality within all human beings, we’re born with it, but unfortunately many of us don’t cultivate it along way. Well I’ve got 6 tips for cultivating curiosity for flow for you that I’ll get into shortly but I first wanted to give little background surrounding curiosity.  

Getting into the flow state, where your body and mind seem to be connected, time slows down and we are completely absorbed in something, requires a certain amount of curiosity in the beginning. Curiosity is such an overlooked and underestimated skill that leads to so many great things if we take the time follow our curiosity and then listen to where it leads us.  

Curiosity boosts creative thinking and this can help you in pretty much every field. And as you build your creative thinking you are building your creative problem-solving skills...

On this episode of the High Flow Lifestyle podcast go deep with 4 tips for focus and flow.
In the search for how to focus to reach the flow state you have to start with the fact that flow follows focus. You can’t have flow if you can’t focus your attention first. Whether it’s in business and entrepreneurship, personal relationships, creative activities and artistic pursuits, or exercise and athletics, if I can help you focus better then you have the ability to enter the flow state, and with flow all of those activities I just mentioned will be amplified.    

We are in an age of where your attention is the most sought-after commodity. 700 billion dollars are spent by company on ads to capture your attention. There are so many disruptors out there and you have to realize that their goal is to keep you out of flow, steal your attention by distracting you, so you can’t focus on the task at hand.  

Hey Flow fanatics, on this episode of the High Flow Lifestyle Podcast I talk with the creative director at Tokyodex, Daniel Harris Rosen, about how he found flow his way by uniquely staying true to his passion for art while building a business, and how allowing space for spontaneity and splitting your time between spaces may be one of the keys to leading a high flow lifestyle. 

Daniel Harris Rosen is a bilingual creative director based in Tokyo, with over 25 years of experience in the Japanese arts scene. Originally a visual artist himself, he is also a curator, VJ, film director, and art writer for The Japan Times & other esteemed media outlets. Daniel first formally studied art at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, and went on to earn his MFA at Tama Art University in Tokyo. Through   working with internet sensation Rinpa Eshidan he gained experience handling commercial work while also pursuing his own artistic career in contemporary art, exhibiting and selling his artwork worldwide.

 After earning his PhD in fine arts from Tama Art University, he founded TokyoDex, a multifaceted creative agency that encompasses all of his artistic endeavors. Daniel’s creative vision, extensive network in the Japanese art community, understanding of the Japanese culture and international standards of business make him a highly sought creative director for exciting art-based projects in Tokyo and around the globe.

Eventually he began to take his own art more seriously. But he settled on aiming to build a bridge between corporations and artists as an art agency.

Creating your supportive entrepreneurial community...

On this episode of the High Flow Lifestyle podcast I explore how a tolerance of failure is an important part of building a volume of creative ideas, we have to put in the reps, build the skills, then we can enter the creative flow state. 

There is a saying that “the enemy of great, is good.” Successful creatives know how to push beyond their good work and get to their great work. And in order to do this, you need to have a large volume of creative works and ideas to choose from.  

Successful entrepreneurs, creative thinkers, and famous musicians all go through the same process of building a large volume of ideas. We like to think they are just gifted or are naturally good at their work, but the reality is they are producing more than the average person and therefore have a larger pool of ideas to choose from in selecting their best. Even Mozart, who like to think of as some type of supernatural being that was just gifted, produced a tremendous amount of average music that we don’t hear about because it just wasn’t memorable. But he needed to create those unremarkable works in order to find his best work. 

And sometimes we don’t always get to choose what those best works are. If musicians or entrepreneurs new what ideas or songs were going to be a hit they would simply duplicate that process over and over and create number 1’s every time. But this doesn’t happen.  

We do need to develop a tolerance of failure and remember that it isn’t permanent and it doesn’t carry into the future. We haven’t been successful at all of our business ventures, but continuing to try new things and small pivots has been important
