Welcome everyone to the inaugural first edition of the School of Paradise Podcast!

Dr. Eugene Tssui (http://www.eugenetsui.com) is not just an epic architect really taking things outside the box, literally and metaphorically, but also a champion athlete, a musician, a dancer, a fashion designer, and so many other things. He is so in tune with his heart,  his soul,  his spirit and that’s what really inspires the School of Paradise.

In this episode we talked about learning and unlearning the limiting thoughts, patterns, and paradigms of the last few hundred years.

From Paris to Mount Shasta, Maurice Ravel to Gengis Khan, in this episode you will understand why we say that Eugene is a powerhouse, always growing strong, unstoppable, with a joy for life and perpetuating, magnifying and multiplying that through all the work that he does, creating a beautiful community around him.
