Description:
Throughout Mayden's 20+ year career as an award-winning designer, lecturer, entrepreneur, and academic, he learned the power of addressing my inner pain. As a result, he successfully healed the hurt of personal and professional disappointment and unleashed his creativity through the filters of immersive empathy, introspective curiosity, and emotional neutrality.
The Speed of Grace is not intended to be a perfect book. Instead, this collection of deeply personal reflections guides the reader through the behaviors and principles Mayden used to pursue creative, physical, professional, personal, and emotional growth. Through vulnerability, transparency, and authenticity, Mayden seeks to inspire the reader, to conquer the fears and insecurities they have yet to confront. To heal from the wounds of the past that block your blessings in present reality. To view creativity as a form of altruistic rebellion.
In this moment, the power and potential of creativity in marginalized communities breaks the binds of economic disparagement, toxic environments, food insecurity, and destructive narratives.
We are learning. We are healing. We are rising. We are the ones we have been waiting for. Our time is now.
