  • Home as a Refugee: A Conversation with Oscar Award-Winning Filmmaker, Megan Mylan
    Nov 10 2022

    Boy, am I excited to share with you all this week’s episode of Finding Home. (and that’s an understatement).

    I was lucky to get to talk with Megan Mylan, who is an Oscar-winning documentary film director. You might be familiar with her current documentary, Simple as Water, or her excellent Lost Boys of Sudan - or Oscar-winner Smile Pinki.

    Megan’s films aren’t a casual watch - they delicately unravel the more difficult parts of life: separation, displacement, family struggle, and the impacts of war.

    In her most recent film, Simple as As Water, Megan paints an intimate portrait of the impact of war, separation, and displacement of Syrian families. It’s a tough but an urgent and timeless portrait. The film is much more than just a conversation about the devastation of war. It’s about the steadfast power of parental love.

    Proud to share this conversation with you all. I hope you enjoy. And if you haven’t already, watch Simple As Water on HBO.

    [2:35] Meet the amazing Megan Mylan!
    [6:00] Journey to Filmmaking: inspirations, moments of reflection, how the process of making a documentary works
    [10:05] Getting back to the editing room: uncovering the layers, getting close to the experience
    [15:00] Filming difficult moments: inside the mind of a filmmaker
    [20:10] The Sacred Spaces of Home
    [27:42] What’s on the horizon: upcoming films, how to watch Simple As Water

  • Breaking Bad in Residential Real Estate Marketing: A Minisode on Misused Words and Phrases
    Oct 27 2022

    “You keep using that word. I do not think that means what you think it means.”

    What exactly does “river view” mean? What does “central air conditioning” mean?

    How can you build trust when words aren’t always used properly in the real estate market?

    Today, my fellow co-worker at the Harris Residential Team, Jonathan, “Yoni” Goldstein and I talk about, and discuss solutions to misused language in real estate marketing. Yoni and I get a bit, “nerdy” if you will - and we dive deeply into the intersection between language and finding “home”.

    Growing up in Westchester County, Jonathan is no stranger to New York City - and his personal and career expertise shines in our conversation today. Jonathan joined The Harris Residential Team after a successful 10-year career working for L+M Development Partners. Jonathan played a key role in the pre-development, construction, preservation, and development of over 6,000 residential units across New York City. He has lived in many Manhattan neighborhoods over the past decade, and currently resides in Murray Hill.
    [2:35] Welcome, Yoni Goldstein!
    [6:50] What is a bedroom? What is a balcony?
    [15:00] the gray areas of real estate marketing
    [30:00] being the most authentic broker & real estate marketer you can be
    [41:42] Concluding thoughts
