In this episode, I chat with Douglas Teiger about his expansive work in architecture as well as his more recent activities in business coaching, art, and spirituality.

Subjects we cover include:

  • His early projects including the Statue of Liberty renovation,
  • Finessing his approach with clients,
  • Creating a drama-free environment within the firm,
  • Using core values to make decisions,
  • His move to coaching,
  • Identifying as a divine being rather than by what you do,
  • And much more...

Below are also some links to a few of the topics we discuss:

  • Douglas’ amazing art and his coaching website can be found here.
  • The architecture firm he founded (and exited) can be viewed here.
  • The exhibition I reference is Making Time: Art in the Age of Mass Incarcerationat MoMA. The article I read was this one from the New York Times.
  • Finally, the quotes that we discuss are as follows: “The ideal church is large enough for silence to echo yet small enough for intimacy to remain” and “Architecture should raise your soul to a higher spiritual level.”
