Does Creativity Come From Insecurity? w/ Debbie Millman

[@Cubannerd]

This went from The Futur interviewing Debbie to a Design Matters podcast episode with Chris Do.

[@thefutur]

Cuban Nerd she flipped it!

[@Cubannerd]

@@thefutur Matthew's reaction was also gold. Honestly, these are the best types of conversations. This interview is probably one of my top ten Futur moments so far.

[@marytheflo]

and I loved it!

[@Brandtoys.]

Mathew was LOVING this. He was constantly giggling at the thought-challenging explanations of two honest empaths with experience.

[@Brandtoys.]

@@MatthewEncina lol I hear you loud and clear buddy. It was great lol. A wealth of introspective info I can relate to

[@avhvsmatej]

i love when Debbie turn this interview around :D

Damn, i wish this was one hour long as well. Great interview. Both of you hahah

[@thefutur]

Hugo she’s good 😉

@@thefutur get her on the show for a longer interview

[@ropodesign]

This is golden! I love how self aware chris is and so open!! And i laughed hard when Debbie flipped the interview haha Love you all!

[@venylai]

I was listening to The Futur’s latest podcast episode with Mika Saulitis, and when Chris mentioned Debbie Millman, I said to myself: “wait, what, they’ve talked to each other?”. Went on the rabbit hole to search for this and found it! This is so wonderful! I’ve followed Debbie Millman for years before I discovered Chris and TheFutur , and gosh, I love that you are both in one conversation. Really hope you’ll get her on the show and you on hers!

[@thefutur]

hi Veny

[@thedaveko]

What a great exchange! Always impressed with Chris but man Debbie Millman is profound and such a great interviewer.

[@thefutur]

She sure is.

[@claracarlberg5304]

She got some very genuine sounding laughter and happiness out of Chris. So great to hear!

[@velifdesign]

I had to watch the interview twice to understand why the roles were changed in the interview... She is a great interviewer but I get the feeling that something for some reason made her turn the attention to Chris and not on her. Chris is a gentleman and he handled the interview very well, even accepting (knowingly) that the interviewee change roles. Great people both! all three of them :)

[@chellya2004]

What a juicy interview. Two distinct personalities, each revealing the other's mind. Love the openness and honesty!

[@thefutur]

Glad to hear

[@CarolinaBautistaR]

Wowww!!! I love her. She is such a great interviewer and I love how she puts her whole presence, creates rapport, asks the right questions and makes Chris talk. Everything CD teaches used by her ❤️. I’d love to see Chris Do in Design Matters and Debbie in The Futur. Awesome episode

[@thefutur]

That would be just fine by us.

[@uruyuto]

What powerful and kind person she is!! I didn't hear about her before (my bad) but now i want to read her books and listen her podcast. Awesome interview and wow, she's so pro at conversation pivot lol.

[@mx_kilo]

I love Debbie! First heard if her on the Tim Ferris podcast. Her questions on how to achieve a remarkable life really helped me to fine tune my path. Thanks so much for this!

[@EasterlyArt]

This is going to come out of left field, but there is a way of how Debbie responds to these questions that reminds me of Mark Hamill. There is a sense of confidence and experience that is presented with what feels like honest and genuine responses. Maybe not as much "gruff" (particularly pointing to Mark's beard), but there is a sense of familiarity that I can appreciate when she touches on these subjects. It may also help that Mark also is a creative professional who uses his stills in acting and shares that in interviews. Maybe not the easiest parallel to draw, but if we are to connect the threads a bit more, Nathan Hamill makes designer toys and illustrations, so in a sense we can connect it. I digress. This, and most of the videos on here are invaluable to creatives and have certainly been helping rediscover my own personal spark as I'm searching for my inner well of drive and motivation. Thank you!

[@thefutur]

that was a left field. ;0

[@cyrusbesabella5938]

One of my favorite podcast Design Matters !!!

[@godwin_njoroge]

At exactly 2:30, the design matters podcast got a new subscriber. Can't believe I hadn't heard about Debbie! Thanks for this Futur Fam

[@rounakbhattacharjee8714]

she is such a natural and a brilliant conversationalist!

[@thefutur]

She sure is

[@nitacr7617]

This is PURE GOLD!!...plus laughed so hard when Debbie flipped the interview and how chris was humble enough to show it.... @chrisdo I love you! Ps: Not in a romantic way, but, I love you..hahaha Thank you for being so generous and sharing all of your knowledge with everyone.

[@thefutur]

Thank you 😊

[@valeriegonzalez7553]

So much value in less than 15 minutes!!

[@grynszpanful]

Gold. Pure gold. I’m struggling with identity as cause of a free will. For me this was amazingly insightful

[@danicajokic2373]

Wow, Chris. What you're saying really resonates with me. Gives me hope. Thank you.

[@mmusa6486]

Ho gosh I just wish it can longer. Moving from Chris Do interviewing Debbie to Debbie interviewing Chris :)

[@xvanegas89]

The way Debbie flipped it was so funny. It would be amazing to have her on the show in a longer format. Btw Chris is rocking some dope kicks!

[@angelvelazquez1792]

Very happy to see this video posted up quickly. Good to see Chris open up a lot to Debbie after she turned the tables.

[@thefutur]

I'll open up if you ask the right questions.

[@mickey5073]

I was surprised by Chris Do's past. Who would have thought that he isn't this man he use to be. Mad respect to u. But fell for Debbie's trap hahaha

[@BlakePleasant]

This is amazing and insightful. Debbie always keeps it real

[@thefutur]

Very real.

[@charles6685]

Real treat for late watchers too!

[@Chris_Originals_Studio]

I’m so happy I clicked on this video. She’s very interesting and her insecurity is relatable.

[@atilab99draws58]

i don't know why but that turn around was so damn funny to me, but it war really enjoyable to listen to and watch

[@harryliangTV]

What can I say.. the 2 best design interviewers going toe to toe..

[@thefutur]

Haha. Or empath to empath.

[@faux9569]

Fantastic video. Also, PLEEEEEEEASE get Paula Scher on The Futur!

[@MihaiDolganiuc]

YES! or Michael Bierut.

[@serenandekeremo]

This is so beautiful. The ending is so beautiful

[@artlabkma]

This was an amazing The Futur/Design Matters mashup! Too bad I didn't stay longer and missed it live. This was a treat--thank you!

[@thefutur]

Thank you Kris.

[@IndrajaSalunkhe]

So much Black. :) Good interview. :) I can relate to "creativity coming from insecurity". And it was fun to see the switch.

[@Kronken]

Hahahahahaha... Debbie is doing her thang! The one who asks the most questions win!

[@porshm6123]

OMG, Debbie Millman!

[@johnnyflash2007]

I already know this is gonna be another great video.

[@johannaparedes1373]

Love this so much!!!

[@swarupkbagul4177]

This is like uncovering inner facts. Thanks for the interesting interview of duo. To share my observation with regards to the point @3:38 - my answer is its very natural way of being (creative). Can we ask a question where does breathing come from? In usual conditions most of us start our journey outside-in - what matter is how consciously we do it. Thanks for sharing wonderful content!

[@quebonic]

She is THE BEST

[@hiryans]

wow you really good at interviewing Debbie, Chris! 😂😂

[@coolguitarpro]

Amazing content as always @futur team!! Keep on keeping on!

[@thefutur]

Thanks

[@MihaiDolganiuc]

God this is great! I love Debbie.

[@KuroiPK]

Is that really such a common view of Chris Do that he is pessimistic? I always thought that he was fairly optimistic too. Also great Interview, would lover to see a longer interview with her.

[@thefutur]

It would be my pleasure to bring this to reality.

[@NRashad212]

Debbie Millman you evil mastermind... well played lol

[@lanyuan-jing9301]

great catch! i am also very eager to watch all live stream, from DAY1 to DAY3, (i realized they were all removed couple days after the event Orz) !___!

[@thefutur]

They disappear.

[@BalrajSidhuasr]

As far as I can recall, Chris never got a chance to be so intimate about his past in that context. So I guess internally he intentionally let Debbie interview him haha

[@thefutur]

I did.

[@trans-a.m.]

Excellent 10x

[@chrisbmindful9890]

sooo good..she's brilliant

[@iestynwalters7681]

I can relate Chris

[@nataliavicencio193]

Love how she has the power of turning anything into a counselling session 😂

[@thefutur]

she's special like that.

[@reynan900]

Loving your content! I am currently a jr at CSUN studying graphic design. I am still getting to know the programs and I am getting a bit more familiar with them as I use them. I am pretty nervous for my senior year coming up, Internship, career, and portfolio wise do you have any tips/advice? Thanks!

[@thefutur]

hang in there.

[@clixbits]

Owned! Great job Debbie. One person (no names) in that group seems to me to be desperately insecure, particularly about getting older.

[@DJSTOEK]

This was good

[@d.o.nmuzic3802]

That was great! 🔥

[@mohammedsadam8747]

This is interesting the hole idea of reaching the peak of your career

I laugh when I saw that look Debbie and Mathew gave each other and Chris just kept talking

why I cant Find the rest of agilia videos ?

We took them down. Cutdowns coming.

@@thefutur I cant wait to watch them , thanks

[@vincentdn]

'What are the things you think about at night' may be the most effective question I've ever heard if you are seeking to glean knowledge from a mentor. When was that next Q&A of yours, Chris? Asking for a friend, of course. V

[@thefutur]

With Debbie?

[@vincentdn]

@@thefutur Either with or without - the new After Hours show may be a great format for that, it would be really cool to be able to send in questions in before the show. V

The interviewer was being interviewed 😆 Maybe the guy named Barton Chen 8:18 should be interviewed sometime.

Please try to get her on the show!

Guys, off topic, when I see your channel's title without the silent "e", I am forced to wonder if it's still pronounced as "future" or "footer". Lols!

Was Matisse insecure? Was Verdi insecure?

hahah nice turn of tables in the interview :D

[@jellene4eva]

There can be multiple peaks though, right?

that's what I'm saying.

Haha I’m first this time!!!

[@andreamarchi309]

Do you think would be possible to have her as a guest of your show? Would be magic to make it happen.

[@thefutur]

We will try.

[@sparta117corza]

3:35 "horrific childhood" theirs a lot of good data that suggests having your parents die while you're young is a good chance of you becoming a very creative person. ):

[@Nats-724]

”Creativity Come From Insecurity” I agree this idea. but usually those kind of creativity is inappropriate to use client work. i think

[@sweatt4237]

Just a couple of monkeys that happen by chance flying through the universe but for some reason, we all share this same empty void that we try to fill with things that are only temporary or "Fleeting" Think about that for a moment.
