Getting attached to one kind of solution, or one kind of mindset, something I call being a "purist", will hurt you, will hurt how creative you are in your solutions. I had fallen into this trap, and realised that through more exploration and deep conversation with people practicing a different "purism" I might augment my own practice with their approach. THE SCENARIO SECRETS PODCAST Sometimes you just gotta go back to the roots. That’s what I did in this episode.. How I got started with instructional design, why scenarios resonated so much with me and all the wacky adventures along the way. This is episode one of 6 that gets into the roots of my freelancing career, how and why I created Broken Co-Worker, and continue to evolve my Narrative Scenario Design practice. The biggest goal is to help you overcome some of your limiting beliefs about what can and can’t be done…how creative you can be, how proud you can be of the work you love. Honestly, if this immigrant kid can, so can you. "Everyone thinks the dream lives in the destination...but that's not the case.
