.155 Brandon Muschlitz
Just speaking on the phone with Brandon has the power to lift up your day and rest your heart rate. This calm and refreshing presence of his was a wonderful addition to an already-incredible week when we met at a TED conference in Banff, Canada. I remember immediately thinking that I wanted to spend the rest of the conference around him. He’s a delight to spend time with and his intelligence and creativity shine through with every conversation.
Over the course of that week-long adventure, Brandon became a form of solace for me amidst the chaotic blend of personality types and characters. He listens deeply and with true care for the person speaking. He’s compassionate in his approach and has such a strong sense of humility and being grounded, ultimately making him someone who so clearly appreciates the little things. Brandon also has a wonderful eye for the beauty in life and I remember first noticing that about him through his wonderful talent of origami. Put simply, he’s a kind and sweet human being who I am so grateful to have met and become friends with.
Brandon, thank you so much for the time we spent that week and for being someone I looked forward to seeing each day. Thank you for your positivity and optimism and for taking the time today to talk. I’m genuinely grateful to know you. Thank you for lovely laugh and kind smile. Thank you, Brandon, for being you.
