Description

The hardest things to talk about are often the ones that most need our commitment. In this episode, we dive into one of architecture’s toughest (and most overdue) topics: how to make the profession more transparent, inclusive, and accessible. My guest, Roderic Walton, is on a mission to demystify what architects actually do—and to build a community where open discussion replaces gatekeeping. Through his YouTube channel, he’s redefining how we talk about architecture, who gets to be part of it, and how to create a career that truly makes an impact. If you’ve ever questioned your place in the profession—or wanted to change it for the better—this conversation is for you.

1.  It takes time to forge a career path but what makes your career is the changes you can make for others through your work.
2. Hearing and giving voice to a broader community makes your work more relevant and impactful.
3. Overcoming negativity and setbacks comes from clarity around why your work is important.
4. Part of why our profession isn't getting more diverse is that we don;t have diverse design processes.
