It’s Season 2 of Innerspace Revolution! Crypto has been an extremely popular topic these days, including among those sensitive to energy and spiritual matters. You may be wondering why- especially with crypto’s newest synonym: Web3. Here I cover the basics of what Web3 entails as a tool for potentially organizing ourselves in a more fun and (less oppressive) way, what its premise of individual sovereignty and responsibility means, and 3 unexpected character traits that I see becoming increasingly important to consciously navigating this new wave of creativity. Hint: it means saying bye to the old ways. If you are super new to this topic, note that I stay at a high level around why decentralization tech is important to the evolution of humanity. YouTube will be your friend if you want details on the technicals. Follow me @innerspacerevolution for more on creativity and energy ✨

What is the interdimensional self? It's not science-fiction, but actually more accessible and natural than you think. It doesn't require you to dismiss your very valuable logical right brain, although some of you may need to put yours on pause for a moment. Our interdimensional selves speak a different language, the language of art and metaphor, and dreaming is just one way it communicates with you to connect and help you attain balance to awaken your natural creativity. 

This closes Season One of Innerspace Revolution! See you in 2022, but follow me on IG @innerspacerevolution in the mean time.

In this episode I talk about my childhood and young adult experience with (undiagnosed) depression and social anxiety, my early lessons on self-responsibility, how I "recovered" through physiological, studious, and spiritual means, and how I continue to integrate the remnants of that time into my daily life. This work takes a lifetime, guys. I also share some brief opinions on how pop culture and attachments to identities may collectively contribute to mental health epidemics, even if they are well-intentioned. Obligatory I am not a medical professional and this is not medical advice.

In this episode I answer a big question from my IG (@innerspacerevolution): How to heal when there is so much pain?

I give you my take on the question, in three levels. How healing is about understanding the difference between love and fear within ourselves and others. What it means to transcend this duality of love and fear, darkness and light. And finally, how our history and systems can impact our smallest individual experiences and actions with each other, and vice versa- underscoring the importance of self-healing now more than ever. Shout outs to Asin who closes us out at the end.

If uncertainty is the pathway to all possibility, how do we even start to navigate it? In this episode I share what I've learned about uncertainty from the playground that is design thinking, why I think the promise of certainty is the true snake oil, and also (at the behest of my intuition) reluctantly share a personal anecdote related to the global uncertainty we're experiencing right now that strongly illuminates one of many ways to balance "planning accordingly" and "trusting your intuition" in difficult times. - ***Obligatory Disclaimer: I am not a doctor and none of what I say in here is a recommendation***

It’s about time I do another episode of Creativity Magic, where I give you quick tips on how to channel more creative energy into your life! This one is literally about treating yo self, but not with spas, nice things, and mani-pedis. How do you clear your space on the regular? Incense is good, but do you pay attention to the purity of information that comes your way in this modern world? I'll share my tips on how I try to stay balanced, and talk about why I think getting a handle on your tech and privacy is important to sacredness.

Why I think creativity, as we know it at this moment, is ultimately a paradox. And why accepting paradoxes is fuel for creativity. Does your brain hurt yet? 

This episode should also start to answer this foundational questions for listeners new and old: Why do I even talk about creativity? And I'll at least start to answer why my perspective of creativity became so spiritual after starting, just like you, in the more pragmatic "I want to access creativity for my career/hobby/personal satisfaction" space.

As a designer, I use visualization and conceptualization constantly in my work and often come across the perspective that it is all fluff if there are no immediate outcomes. Understandable, since businesses work with quarterly goals, and visualizations work in the realm beyond time and space. Why is imagination and visualization so powerful in creativity and collaboration, and what can it look like in your personal life?

(Sorry, we're not gonna go at length about cryptocurrency in this one, we're using the word HODL in this case to speak of "holding a vision, no matter what")

In this episode, I literally tell you to just go outside. This is a quick intro to a new series on this pod called "Creativity Magic" where I share what kinds of things have helped me in my creative process, from the standard to the metaphysical. What kinds of things have helped me go deep in understanding myself as human, and why does understanding our human-ness unlock our naturally unbridled creativity?

The first "tool" in this series, is of course, Mother Nature herself. What is your relationship with nature?

What is the "industrial productivity complex"? It's the phrase I made up to describe the version of productivity that we talk about when we say "we're not being productive" while resting on a Saturday, or are "more productive" in office environments. But what does it really mean? I unpack what I think, ask a lot of questions, and share how I think we can return to the true aligned version of productivity that can help us get back into the creative zone and feel more fulfilled and unblocked when it comes to our flow states.
