The epic conclusion.

In this episode of the Red Mage, I announce a side project named Karrmot and venture further into the define stage of the design process. I define user segments, define success, and break down some user journeys.

Please note that this episode mentions suicide and uses strong language

In this episode, we start the define phase. I share additional research to fill in gaps in the discovery process and then use IDEO's 5 Whys to identify the core issue and establish a space to design.

Warning I do reference a graphic topic in a previous episode. There is also mention of suicide.

In this episode, I interview Ryan Castro-Miller a writer and graduate student working on a master's in family psychology. Ryan shares his first-hand experience working in the special needs behavior intervention for the county.

In this episode of the Red Mage, we continue our research. I share critical data from the MHA 2021 annual State of Mental Health in America Report and explore the potential of AI in mental health.

Also, recent events in Echo Park have displaced community members experiencing chronic homelessness and have dehumanized them in the media. I ask that listeners please considering supporting the following groups:

KTownforall

CCEDLA

Knock LA

KIWA

Invisible People

SELAH Neighborhood Homeless Coalition

LACAN

Ground Game
