AI can generate logos, websites and brand colors. But AI still can't sit in a room and navigate: - executive disagreement - customer perception - organizational truth - body language and unsaid words - past experiences and sentiments not stored in an LLM It can't read between the lines that only you can see as a human. That's where you as the creative professional become indispensable. by @therealsw1

2016 was the first year I designed for our family reunion... and they haven't fired me yet lol Our family is truly dope because we make every reunion special: ✅️ branded ✅️ themed ✅️ a different location and host each time ✅️ various activities and events over a few days The only ones that didn't happen were in 2020 and 2022, but i still created some cool shirt concepts (we can still use these when it goes back to Detroit lol) Although it's a lot of work to create for a big family, I'm so honored to be part of a truly powerful legacy of rich history 💜🙌🏾🙏🏾 #wearefamily #familyreunion by @therealsw1

In the classes I teach, I often talk about my love for arts and crafts as a kid. Today, I went to the bookstore and had a sudden urge to build with my hands again. I felt that child-like spirit to create rise heavy in my soul. I was tempted to get a Lego set too.... and then I looked at the price 🤨. #nevermind by @therealsw1

@teresa_caro, I am so honored to be a small part of your TEDx journey and to have shared the room with you for your debut! Bravo! 👏🏾👏🏾 Quick back story: Teresa and I were in Costa Rica with the Quantum Leap Experience when she got the call that she was Editor's Pick! Such an amazing talk...I hope you are proud of all the awesome things you have accomplished and who you have become on this journey. On top of that, the event was full of energy and a mini masterclass on speaking 💡 You are truly living out your prioritized life... Check out her talk here: https://lnkd.in/ez-dWEAs ---- Also great seeing fellow LAPL graduates Kelly Frazer Johnson, MBA, ACC and Diamond Ford among others there. Aaaaand, your daughter's delicious chocolate chip cookies :) by @therealsw1

The biggest career shift I ever made wasn't learning new software. It was realizing that design wasn't the beginning of a project. It was somewhere in the middle. The more I understood the: - business and high-level business challenges - customer - messaging - decision-making …the better my design became. And then I realized that the layer on top of design was branding. That's the powerful insight I wish someone had shared with me 20 years ago. I'm sharing it with you now.

I’ve read more books than these in the first half of the year, but here are some worth sharing that I recommend: “Trust” by Iyanla Vanzant Mastering the Four Essentials of Trust (Trust in Self, Trust in God, Trust in Others, Trust in Life) An introspective and reflective read to reinforce one of the most important traits we can operate in—self-trust --- “Don’t Believe Everything You Think” by Joseph Nguyen Why Your Thinking is the Beginning and End of Suffering A really interesting and deeper look at how our thoughts influence everything we do --- “The One Thing” by Gary Keller The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary Results A great reminder of the power of focus with a framework to back it up --- “Happy Money” by Ken Honda The Japanese Art of Making Peace with Your Money An eye-opener on money beliefs, how we think and act with money, and how make our money “happy” --- “Release, Rest Remain” by Yvette Henry A 30-Day Devotional to Embrace Abiding Over Striving A beautiful deep dive into John 15, the profound words Jesus spoke to His disciples hours before His arrest --- “The 12 Week Year” by Brian Moran Get More Done in 12 Weeks than Others Do in 12 Months A powerful and actionable framework to achieve a big goal in a short period of time --- “Brand Restart” by Shannel Wheeler (coming soon!) An Actionable Guide to Become a Rebrand Hero I’ve been working on my third book diligently behind the scenes. I’m sharing a powerful process to help designers and creatives conduct the rebrand process with truth at the center. It’s a process of transformation not only for the client, but for the designer who wants to be more impactful, relevant and strategic in their career --- In this stage of my life, I’m reading for application…because I want to make my life and the life of others better! by @therealsw1

So for the last 3 hikes in a row, at the same mountain (within a span of 2 weeks), I've had a deer jump out right in front of me on the trail. Like less than 20 ft away. What does this symbolize? 🤔 Or is it the same one saying wassup? Lol *deer not pictured, because I let the animals be...* by @therealsw1

"I'm not a gym person..." I professed this for years. Besides track and basketball practice in high school, there has been no other time in my life that I was interested in going to the gym. Exercising outside and cardio, yes. But being out on the gym floor hoping I don't look foolish on the bench press...naw. Then I heard about women losing muscle mass after 40, and I was like, well that's not cute lol So when I discovered there are classes where you can lift heavy, lift with many reps, and lift with others...I was like yeah, I can do that. Just tell me what to do and I'll do it. Let's all suffer together 🤣 I know 50 classes isn't a lot to some of yall who are in there every day. But it's something for a person who professes what they won't do and who they aren't... and then they turn around and now do it regularly. I'm grateful to every instructor and fellow gym buddy who has pushed me and encouraged me. I truly appreciate it, and it's now a critical part of my weekly schedule. More importantly, I KNOW that I'm stronger now, both physically and mentally. I'm on the road to 100 classes and beyond... hopefully by the fall 💪🏾. So for the last 2 years, yes, I now AM a gym person! What things have you proclaimed in your life, personally or professionally, that just aren't true anymore (and for the better?) #letsgetit #health #fitness by @therealsw1
