We also talked about failure, the strangeness of moving to new cities, firing your mother twice and the value of standing out using unbridled profanities.

    Nothing in her early life foreshadowed Jaime Derringer’s rise as a champion of contemporary design, through the development of her wildly successful design blog Design Milk and its sister sites, Dog Milk and Adorn Milk. A passion project if there is one, she turned - one step at a time - her love of contemporary design, architecture and beautiful things into a career that took her to places she probably wouldn’t have, had she stuck to a conventional path. Jaime was kind enough to open up and share with us what she was like growing up, her early career, her failures, her fears, her aspirations and what she’s hoping to accomplish in the future. I loved her willingness to be unconditionally open about her experiences and lack of pretense, particularly in light of the fact that she was a complete outsider to her industry and how she used that to her advantage, in building the indispensable design platform that Design Milk is today. Listen in to hear more about Jaime and her journey.

  • Ep. 5 | Revolution Not Evolution w/ Matthew Rosenberg

    Architect Matthew Rosenberg grew up in Saskatoon in an environment that did not predestine him to become the daring creative force he is today. A quiet suburban life and (admittedly overly) caring jewish family was more likely to be conducive to a humdrum suburban life. Attending the march of the living in Israel and Poland in his teens, awakened in him the desire to aspire to bigger and better things. Fast forward 20 years or so and the pudgy, quiet teen is now a well put-together, articulate and vocal advocate of nothing short of a revolution of the architectural practice. His integrated approach to practicing architecture, from pre-development to post-occupancy operations, from designing for a persona to designing the experience of end users, takes the master builder model one step further, by taking ownership of a building through its entire life-cycle.

Listen in to hear the secret sauce behind one of Canada's most innovative structural engineering firms.

    About the podcast: The intent behind our podcast series "Truth Is Golden" is to look at renowned creatives and their work with a critical eye. We aim to ask deep questions in order to peel back the layers of marketing, clever one-liners and sexy branding. We want to show the world what it truly takes for genuinely creative forces to find their own voice make a go of a career at it. We want to hear about the successes, the failures, the inspirational stories and the lessons gleaned from all of it. In short, we want the truth, so that we can inspire other people to fulfill their creative vision and in the process hopefully make the world a better place.
