Risk 43:32

3 days ago43:32

43:32

Mentioned Mythic Quest episode: Dark Quiet Death The pram in the hall Tim Van Damme XOXO Festival Crazy Boat! Topics Discussed The delicate balance between following established patterns and advocating for innovative design solutions How life circumstances (family obligations, debt, financial security) fundamentally change our relationship with risk The consulting advantage: why outside perspectives have more freedom to propose radical ideas The shifting landscape of design opportunities from the mobile revolution to today's uncertain AI frontier Why designers often self-censor their most authentic work out of fear or practicality Pull Quotes "Every big moment in my career was when I took one of those big swings." "My job is to represent the user...even if it puts me at odds with my team." "Every single good piece of work comes from a genesis of a personal experience." "Risk is a clarification of one's priority list." "I would never do anything to risk my family or my children...nothing would be worth it."

I think everything's gonna change every year apparently." - Dave Miller "I found myself all of a sudden seeing that I was exploring adjacent areas of what I'm technically qualified to do and not doing a bad job at it." - Dave Miller "The hottest thing in the market right now is essentially the player coach. It's the adult in the room that could manage... but they are particularly skilled in the craft." - Dave Miller About Dave Dave Miller is the founder of Design Citizen , a recruiting and coaching firm dedicated to helping designers thrive.
