  • 37. Rethinking Language When Reacting to Art - with JAN MAJOR

    In this episode, JAN MAJOR returns for her 7th visit to the podcast for the recurring micro-series: THE LIFE & TIMES OF LEGENDARY BUSINESS CONSULTANT GERARD "GERRY" MAJOR. Eric and Jan discuss the importance of re-thinking how we react to art, and whether or not it is appropriate to embrace extreme emotional reactions. Eric suggests his most valuable growth as a creator was in learning how not to "hate" a work of art, but to explore why he didn't react positively to it.
