The Ultimate Communication Guide - How To Connect Better

Welcome to "The Square One Show," hosted by Jessica and Dave, a husband and wife team dedicated to helping you move past fear and anxiety to live a purposeful life that nurtures human flourishing. In a world that's constantly pushing us to compete and conform, we're here to remind you that every day is a new chance to grow, learn, and discover something different.

Join us as we dive into real, authentic conversations about starting and running our own businesses, navigating the challenges of family life, and finding our way back to square one again and again. Our goal is to create a space where we can share meaningful discussions, meet interesting people, and foster a community that's not obsessed with algorithms or social media validation but is focused on genuine human connection and growth.

We're not here to replace income or make podcasting our career; we're here because we enjoy it, and we hope you do too. Whether we're discussing the pitfalls of the self-help movement, the importance of intentionality and perspective, or the value of purposeful work, we aim to inspire you to live intentionally and contribute positively to the world around you.

So, if you're ready to explore, dream, and discover your story with us, tune in to "The Square One Show." Let's embrace the journey of starting fresh, taking risks, and finding purpose in the everyday.

"Other people's shoes gives a different perspective. We're facilitating in a spot where other people can share their ideas and opinions and their life so other people can sit there and go, wow, I never really thought of that. I want more of an understanding. I want people to play nice. And the only way to do that is to understand where they're coming from." - Garrett Larghi & Neil Matthews from Other People's Shoes.

Dave & I met Kevin when we were diving into producing videos - and had a lot of questions, specifically about a new camera we bought.  I had read an article about this specific camera - and then reached out to the author - who invited us to chat via Skype….  We hit it off right away - and I could tell kevin had such a kind and giving heart -- spending time with two novices - sharing his advice and encouragement!

 We’d love to introduce you today - to Kevin Luiz - a cinematographer and owner of Capion Studio based in MA. His authentic approach to creative media and working with clients is inspiring -- here’s our interview. 

Capion Studio is a commercial film studio focused around a singular concept; creativity.

Today our guest is from across the world in Armenia! His name is Mikayel Khachatryan, CEO of Wirestock.io, a stock agency where you can upload to ONE place - and sell your photos on multiple content marketplaces like Shutterstock, Adobe Stock and more. 

After uploading my own stock photos to multiple places and realizing how cumbersome and time consuming it was, I thought, "There has GOT to be a better way."  I kept looking - but didn't see the solution i was looking for - until... someone from Wirestock contact me about their platform.

I could upload my photos to ONE place - quick and simple - and they would keyword and tag them and send them all to major stock agencies. This saved me hours of time and the hassle of keywording each photo.

They were quick to respond to my questions, and I was immediately impressed with the company!  Someone had found a simple solution to one of my pain points.

So I reached out, and the CEO, Mikayel agreed to be on our show today, and we're so happy he did. You'll hear his background and story behind Wirestock,io; how he is helping creatives create, and saving time doing so.

"I was literally waking up at 3:30, four o'clock in the morning to get client work done before my actual day job and previous to being laid off, I was like, why am I doing this? Is this worth it?" - Angela Gast

We're talking to Angela Gast today and her story really sums up a quote that we have on our website now by Mark Twain. "Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do then by the ones you did. So throw out the bow lines, sail away from the safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, dream, discover."

From Angela:
"I was laid off from a job and that's really how this all started. I was actually doing the side hustle for awhile, working full time, but had this dream of being an entrepreneur really since I was a kid. I knew I wanted to do it. I just never really found the path of actually doing it. I would always get sidetracked by a full time job or another opportunity and it was just always so hard to say no to that and venture off into the unknown world of entrepreneurship. I like the safety of a full time job, but once I realized that after being laid off for the second time in my life, a full time job is really not that safe. I could actually be laid off at any moment. So it took two times to get laid off to realize that there's really no safe journey. So I might as well just do what I want to do."
