In this episode, we welcome a genuinely innovative mind in the SeeArts Podcast - Katharina Aguilar: she is the co-founder of 7Places – an innovation agency in Stuttgart focusing on spaces:

In the conversation, we discussed creating "co-spaces" as future micro living where everyday needs can be met within walkable distance. Katharina presented two of her current projects that she passionately pursues which also s. We wrapped up with an artistic perspective on how to reclaim public space. It was a total treat, and Katharina was mesmerized with her insightful wisdom and charming way that motivated me to reshape my space for more creativity.

More information about 7places:

7places dedicate themselves to reinvent our living spaces.

They create and build spaces like restaurants, hotels, public spaces, offices, and stores in a new way using inspiration, emotion, and technology. With their philosophy of "Less talking, more acting," they explore and design future spaces at the intersection of technology and architecture.

Additionally, they develop the 7places App that helps us find inspiring places and events in our daily lives.

Katharina followed her calling and passion for space and innovation after spending almost a decade in the automotive industry.

The funny side fact is that over a decade ago, Katharina and Fabian were studying together International Business in our dual career at Bosch and IBM, so it is an inspiring catch-up, and I am sure our listeners are as excited as me what these 7 places look like and to learn about these spatial dimensions

Radha Agrawal is a shining powerhouse. After experiencing frustration with the nightlife scene, she felt the urge to bring people together and create real connections and community. Wanting to maintain all the things she loved about going out (dancing, creativity, connection) but leave the unsavory spilled drinks and bouncers behind, she launched Daybreaker, a sober early morning dance party that now has over 500K members who participate worldwide.

Radha and Fabian get to know each other during a 2015 San Francisco Daybreaker and the Giant DUNDU was a special surprise for the dancing crowd in the Bay Area. The reconnection after her book launch in Los Angeles while Fabian was performing with the Giants of Light at the World´s Best concluded in a ecstatic dance with Baby Soleil in Radah´s belly and the pandemic invited them to cross the big pond virtually and have DUNDU join the Digital Dance parties.

Radha shares her entrepreneurial spirit with a three step approach how to find a start-up idea and showcases powerfully why the mindset of iteration is perfection helps to get things started. With her fam of Daybreaker she organises massive online dance-outs and strives to build Joy institutes around the globe. You can experience this Joy practise with the on-demand online training D.O.S.E. (14 days for free) that helps you to connect your neurotransmitter into a vibrant cocktail.

In the conversation we covered her journey out of investment banking into becoming a experience designer and community architect, the power of rituals and the need for Belonging.

We also recommend to read her Book Belong which is a masterpiece as even before the pandemic the world has been in a state of disconnection and Belong brings powerful tools into the game to "go in to go out" and illustrates in a very visual way how we have to rethink old structures (updating the pyramid of needs)

45 minutes with the super spreader of energy just dance away and we can't wait to play together again

As if that wasn’t incredible enough, Radha is the Co-Founder of THINX period underwear which she created with her twin sister Miki Agrawal, is launching a new business, LiveItUp, and now she’s launching her new book, Belong, about finding your people, creating meaningful community, and living a more connected life.
