155 - Beauty and Connection with Michaell Magrutsche

<p>We live in an age that emphasizes systems, order, processes, logic, and efficiency as a primary purpose of our work. In many ways, these indeed have brought tremendous comfort, safety, and convenience to our lives.</p> <p>But what if we've lost something also? What if this overemphasis on systems has cost us the meaning, purpose, and connection that makes human life ultimately worth living?</p> <p>Join me in this episode as I'm joined by a rather unusual guest. Many of you know that I'm an engineering type of mindset - Mr. Michaell Magrutsche is on almost the opposite end of the temperament. He shares his story about how his inability to complete basic elementary school lead to his artistic success.</p> <p>Michaell also shares his discoveries about connection, and how choosing people, beauty, and a curious perspective can bring fulfillment and meaning.</p> <p>You can read more about Michaell's work at his website: <a href= "https://michaellm.com/self-aware-art-education" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://michaellm.com/self-aware-art-education</a> or follow him at <a href="https://anchor.fm/michaellart" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">https://anchor.fm/michaellart</a></p> <p>Michaell is not Catholic, and we discuss the importance of beauty, and how his work compares with the teachings of the Catholic faith.</p>
