Wriinkle Podcast

Thanks for listening :)

Way back in #002 of the podcast we spoke to up and coming filmmaker Simon Stanford and he was talking about one of his favourite books Steal Like An Artist – needless to say we got ourselves the book pretty sharpish after speaking.

It’s played a significant part in helping us conceive and execute the original content, marketing and launch strategy for wriinkle. Also it’s been instrumental in helping me to to transition from a more corporate/structured day to day life to one where I’m being more of a self-starter, producing creative work on a daily basis.

In this episode I pick out two of my favourite learnings from the book: Be Boring & Steal Like An Artist

Let us know what you think about this – do you have any tips, techniques or little mantras that you use to put you in the right mindset to be producing creative work or help you crack on with a project your working on??

Thanks to all you people who I’ve been speaking to this week off the back the last Wriinkle Short :)

Here’s that Amazon link to Steal Like An Artist:

Here's a new Wriinkle Short! Thanks for listening:)

There's a shift going on in our approach to, and perception of, what it means to call something your job or 'work' or a 'workplace'. 

The way we’re working is changing – the office for national statistics says that there’s now about 4.8 million self-employed people in the UK – which is the highest it’s ever been..well it’s the highest it’s ever been since records began 40 odd years ago. And It’s increased by more than 24% in the last 10 years.

Plus there are co-working spaces popping up everywhere.

What's going on? What's it all about?

This paradigm shift is something we're highly interested in at wriinkle, it plays a big part in what we do and what we're trying to achieve, so i've looked into this a little but and hopefully provided a nice starting point for some further discussion on this subject.

Continue to reach out via the wriinkle Instagram or email us on [email protected] and let us know what you think about all of this. Let's explore this!

Enjoy :)

Thanks for listening!

This episode was an absolute doddle to put together because intermittent fasting is something that i've been experiencing first hand for the last 3 months. It may be a relatively a short period in your life but in the last 3 months i've enjoyed it so much, experienced a number of benefits that I hadn't even considered and I really feel like it's a long term part of my life now.

In this episode i'm sharing my own experience and also talking briefly about certain aspects to this that have helped me understand it.

Let us know what you think of this episode, have you had experience with intermittent fasting - how did/do you find it? We're really interested to hear peoples experiences with it.

Nice one :) :) :)

Here we go – episode 21! 

In this one we’re speaking to Georgia Plascoe, she runs Ohros – making 100% handmade, 100% soy vegan candles. Check out the Instagram https://www.instagram.com/ohroslondon/

We get into how Ohros came about and what Georgia did to grow the brand, especially with Instagram. We also talk about how she likes juggling Ohros with her day job – it’s really interesting and a nice way of approaching a passion project.

We also talk about veganism and Georgia has some recommendations for films/personalities so listen out for those if you’re interested in finding out more.

Hope you enjoy this – follow us on Instagram/Twitter/Youtube search “wriinkle”.

Thanks for listening people :)

Nice one!

Thanks for listening!

The subject for this one came about only in the last few days - I was at a party and bumped into someone I'd met once a few years ago, and it quickly became apparent that they remembered my name and I couldn't recall theirs.

That feeling is terrible isn't it but at the same time your estimations of that other person goes up - so it's definitley something I want to avoid - I want to improve my memory.

So I remembered that there's a book on the shelf in our gaff called 'Moonwalking with Einstein" and it's all about memory techniques and memory competition. So anyway, in this episode I talk about stuff that i've learned from this book and some other research about mempry techniques like the memory palace.

Anyway, hope you enjoy this one, keeop getting in touch via our Instagram wriinkle or [email protected]

Have you tried these techniques? Have you got another way of remembering people's names when you meet them? Or other memory tricks?

Let us know..

Nice one!

I mentioned in the previous episode that we've started a daily vlog - it's all about our journey on this wriinkle project. And it's fair to say it's been something that i've had to get my head around and bring myself to terms with. Talking to an inanimate object, looking down a lense or even just exposing parts of myself (ooh er) has been a fear that i've been abe to overcome, at least in some part, especially given the fact that we're actually a few episodes in.

So this episode is all about facing your fears. It's about exposure therapy, which is basically facing your fear head on and experiencing the fear head on in ordder to ultimately overcome it.

There's neuroscience behind it too - it's all to do with firing up the neural patterns associated with the given fear in order to re-weire your brain to get over it.

Then we look into some of the more subtle ways our fears manifest themselves to hold us back from achieving the things we might want out of life. So we identify some key tell-tale signs of these less overt fears.

Also email [email protected] if you prefer.

Let us know what you think of this subject of facing up to your fears - or unearthing the fears that are holding you back in someway - some first hand stories would be amazing to read and we'll start up one of our discussions off the back of these episodes.

Anyway, hope you enjoy this one

Thank you for listening to this new Short!

So the idea for this episode actually came about the other day while I was getting some ideas together for that last episode on Flow states - so I was watching a talk at some biohacking conference on Youtube. And the person talking (biohacking expert; Maxillian Gotzer) mentioned how he thinks about something specific that he wants to get done the next day and he visualises it just before he goes to sleep and he says by doing this he’s letting his subconscious get to work while he’s asleep.

This got us thinking about the subconscious and Joe was actually already reading "The Power of the Subconscious Mind" by Joseph Murphy. 

This episode is all about what we've learnt from this book and some other bits of research we've done - it's all about how we can harness our subconscious and work on it to improve our lives and get more out of ourselves.

Find the book here:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Power-Your-Subconscious-Mind/dp/9562912019

Let us know if you've looked into all of this stuff before - if you're employing some of these techniques to tap into/feed the subconscious. How's it going? What do you make of it all?

Hope you enjoy this one - have a great week :)

Nice one!

Here we go, another wriinkle short - thanks for listening!

In the last wriinkle short we briefly referred to flow, or being in a flow state, when I was talking about being at your creative best. And it’s just something that interests us so much because it’s linked to one of the main visions for wriinkle – which is all about how we can find more happiness and fulfilment in life through the things we do.

In this episode I explore what flow is exactly, where to find it, and how to get into more flow states in our lives.

I refer to a guy called Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, he's the grand-daddy of research and exploration of flow theory. Check out his books at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mihaly-Csikszentmihalyi/e/B00J4J5CFQ

Also this Ted Talk on Biohacking and Flow is cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAyWhTF3mYE

Tell us about your experiences of flow - have you experienced flow in your life? Have you managed to cultivate flow states in new areas of your life?

You've been getting in touch mainly via our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wriinkle/?hl=en

Also reach out on email [email protected] to discuss flow further with us.

Have a good week and find more flow :)

Nice one!
