This week, Steven talks to street art legend, Alan Ket of the Museum Of Graffiti in Miami, about the power of street art, how the narratives and stories behind a piece are as intoxicating as the piece itself, how the streets themselves have influenced the way that art is expressed, and the ways in which life's journey is shaped by our artistic sensibilities.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Street art helps to not just add culture to the landscape of the streets themselves, but also aids in imbuing a sense of culture to minds and souls who may not otherwise be exposed to art.
Art is all about a story. We don't necessarily become intrigued by art because of the way it looks or the way it makes you feel. We become intoxicated by the stories behind the pieces - of the artist and background itself.
There comes a time in life, a bridge between youthful bravado and experimentation and the person we wish to become, when we must make a decision to take life and business more seriously.
Artists cross over into the public conversation when they take on that air of celebrity. When you suddenly become part of the zeitgeist, your name suddenly becomes the conversation itself.
BEST MOMENTS
'People get pulled into art because of the narrative and story'
'Many of us who grew up in that are in NYC, ended up suffering from PTSD in a way'
'Success is not a destination. It's a journey'
'I don't bet on the trend. I bet on the history'

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.
As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life.
My 'Study' coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.
