Can I do that? Can that be something that you can learn? How did questions function differently between Eastern versus Western intellectual traditions? What role do you think embodied questions those we explore through doing rather than thinking play in developing wisdom? What's on the other side of the hill? What happens if you go to the end? What's the origin of this? How should one think about the exploratory in one's life? Is there anything that you would add to your list of 15 statements that define what makes a quality question? Is there a qualitative difference between the questions humans are asking and the questions our AI systems are beginning to formulate? What do you think would help them get there?

What else could you do over the long term for 10,000 years? How do you transmit values over time? How do you evolve values that need to change, and how do you make a difference? How do even know what you don't want to change? What do you want to continue? What's the most essential aspects of our civilization that we don't want to go away? What are the rules? What is the system? How do you pass things along in time and not change the ones you don't wanna change, and make sure you change the ones that are more adaptable so they can adapt? What do you think about questioning itself as an art form? How has being a photographer influenced the way you question reality, visually compared to verbally? Are you a photographer that takes photos or makes photos? What will happen? What will happen next? What are your right now questions that you are wrestling with or working with in your life? Can someone else do what I'm trying to do here? Am I more me in doing my art or more me in doing the writing? Do you have any other thoughts or encouragement about questions that we haven't explored? What makes a good question? How do you ask a good question? What questions do you dwell on to be in purposeful imbalance? What is your practice in embracing the inefficient nature of questions to achieve breakthroughs? What are the new hills you can build and frontiers you can explore? How can you use your curiosity and humanity to pursue questions that trend toward the fringes?…

066 Be…an Artist with Sandra Davis Marshall : Ahwatukee Uncensored with Howard Farran 58:11

7 years тому58:11

58:11

Inspired by a love of nature and extensive travels to Europe, especially Italy, Arizona artist Sandra Marshall draws from a plethora of stored mental images she has captured over the years. Sandra's main focus is on contemporary botanical paintings – creating sought-after works of art that offer unique color combinations that are exquisitely rich and harmonious. Her flowers are rendered in rhythmic, organic compositions in rich oils, and mixed media on canvas. Her love for music is often depicted in her paintings with her botanicals that she has often been told look like they are dancing, and have a musical quality. Her awareness of rhythm and balance helps her to create fun energy that helps to convey the beauty all around her.Early on, Sandra showed a talent and love of color and art and always drew or painted -- receiving accolades from teachers and others who saw her work. After studying color, and painting in her early years in a private art institute with Jean Fitzhenry, she became accomplished in a variety of media including oils, pastels, acrylic and mixed media and later earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Education with an emphasis in Art Education/Painting. A New York native, Sandra is a master colorist and attributes her passion to childhood trips into New York City to visit the museums, and galleries. Sandra's Mom, an accomplished wildlife photographer and gardener, who always had an eye for composition, was a big influence in Sandra's love for nature and flowers. She also worked as an art director for 3-Ball Productions in Hollywood in addition to painting backdrops for the Disney Channel and working on set designs. Before marrying and starting a family back in the states, Sandra studied art in Italy, which led to co-creating an inventive company in Italy called “Porta a Porta”, which means door to door in Italian. Sandra would bring aspiring artists from the United States and fly them to Italy and while under her instruction, the students would learn to paint as they were surrounded by the stunning Tuscan Hillsides. Sandra has used her combination of color mastery, painting and teaching skills to design a career that has been immensely satisfying for both herself and her clients. In addition to her works of art that she continues to push the boundaries of color and beauty, Sandra volunteers in schools with her successful “I Draw, You Draw program. Says Sandra,” My mind is constantly coming up new designs and ideas of things to paint and I enjoy sharing that enthusiasm with my students. The excitement of each new painting is like taking a voyage to an unknown place – the anticipation, exploration and the journey --- I can’t get enough! 4025 E.

Sisters Sara GilBride and Laura Prefling are native Phoenicians, both graduating from Apollo High School and Northern Arizona University. While Sara has a background in management and government contracts and Laura has a background in communications and public relations, their shared love of family and food brought them together to open their first Dream Dinners in 2006. In 2007, they bought their second location – the Ahwatukee store which had opened in 2004. A few years later, brought the bravery (and naivety!) to open a third location, located in Scottsdale. Growing up, Sara and Laura’s mom MADE them sit down at the dinner table every night, and MADE them drink their milk. As teenagers, it was utterly infuriating to have no TV and no answering the phone… which was at the time, of course, a landline, hanging on the wall that the whole family had to share! Well, fast forward 15… or 20… or 30 years and both Sara and Laura now see the importance of what their mom was trying to do. And now, as Laura is mom to 3 kids and Sara is stepmom to a teenager, they also enjoy “torturing” their own children with these same important rules. It is now not only a job, but a passion for them to help bring other families together around the dinner table. https://dreamdinners.com/…

Starting as a hostess in her hometown of Oklahoma City, OK. She worked her way through Front of House management, then began programming POS systems.

Missing the everyday bustle of a restaurant, she completed the pastry program at Le Cordon Bleu and spent the next couple of years running a bakery. However, her entrepreneur spirit won't let her be. Over the years working with different establishments, she realized that the demise of many restaurants were the fine details that owner/operators are missing in the everyday flow. With that, BOH Consulting was born. She imagines a world where 90% of peoples' restaurant dreams don't fail. http://www.phxmediterraneanfood.com/ http://www.bohconsulting.com/…

Her story unfolds with an energetic spirit of life and a passion for living each day to the fullest. After 25 years of restaurant and managerial experience, Tammy decided to take a new career path but that path was not certain. Her son convinced her to join a gym with him and what became of that was a total transformation. Tammy had no fitness experience or desire to even be involved in the fitness industry. Each passing day led to new discovery, a transformation not only in her own physique but in the way fitness is viewed as a whole. True fitness starts within each one of us. It’s not about how many pushups or reps you can do. It’s about building lasting relationships, making each day better than the day before, going the extra mile, not taking life so seriously and understanding that until you walk a minute in someone else’s shoes you have no idea what that person is going through. This is the key to success – to meet each person where they are and build them up, educate them, to be open and understanding, to realize it starts with one and ends with many. She has been blessed as a coach and instructor for the last 14 years in the fitness industry, grateful for the opportunity to use fitness as a platform to make a difference and build relationships. Tammy recently took a position managing Hub Fitness welcoming the opportunity to bring people together. Here we will learn what the Hub is all about and her recipe for success. www.thehubfitness.com…

Bio Steve Laskarides: Owner and Executive Director of Visiting Angels Home Care serving Ahwatukee. Steve has gone from 20 years of experience as an Engineer and Engineering Manager working in the high tech semi-conductor industry to owning a Home Care company. One may wonder how does that happen! How do you go from being an Engineer to running a Home Care company!?? Steve has passion to ensure the Welfare and Safety of others. Steve started out his previous career as an Engineer responsible for $100+ million worth of equipment and loved every minute of it but after about 5 years and suffering from some serious tunnel vision Steve desired to do more and more importantly work more closely with others. As a young Engineer Steve started down a leadership path and quickly became a Group Leader and Manager of up to 25 people. Steve loved helping his employee’s both professionally and personally. The majority of Steve’s employees worked in the manufacturing environment and early on a few of his employees were hurt on the job. Luckily nothing too serious but this kept Steve up at night! In Engineering you are following the same procedures and checklists on a weekly sometimes daily basis. If one person got hurt following a procedure the likelihood that someone else could get hurt was high. To address this Steve developed a Proactive Safety Program that determined when and where the next injury would occur before it happened and then systematically removed that potential. This effectively eliminated injuries for his team, it worked so well that it was disseminated to his department of about 500 people, that worked so well it was disseminated to his factory (3000 people), that worked so well that it was disseminated to the entire campus (6000 people), that worked so well that it was then disseminated to the corporation worldwide!! Keeping people Safe and Saving Lives is what Steve enjoyed the most during his previous career, Steve realized that caring for others was his passion and calling in life. Even though Steve had a great career he planned to officially “retire” at the earliest opportunity to start his next chapter in life which would have occurred when he reached 49 and a half but an opportunity presented itself to retire about 5 years earlier than planned and Steve seized it and he is very happy that he did! Steve has a great business sense and entrepreneurial spirit, Steve always knew that he wanted to get into Senior Care in some way be it starting a Group Home, investing in an Assisted Living Facility, or Home Care. After much research Steve chose Home Care and Visiting Angles as one of the best! With this Steve gets to continue to keep people safe and improve their well-being, he still gets to help employees develop in their careers and personal lives, and he gets to exercise his business acumen and entrepreneurialship, its what he was meant to do! Steve is highly active in our local Senior and business communities. Steve is an active board member of the Senior Advocacy Group of Ahwatukee (the SAGA), Steve sponsors local church events, donations to local churches, and he is a member of the Ahwatukee Chamber of Commerce. 480-886-1165 & 800-365-4189 16815 S Desert Foothills Pkwy, Suite 123, Phoenix, AZ 85048 http://www.visitingangels.com/SouthPhoenix/home…
