“Taking the invisible and making it visible. That’s what creatives do. They use their superpower of imagination.”
Jim Kwik found himself on a private flight surrounded with the cast of the new X-Men movie.
That’s the kind of thing that can happen when you unlock your super powers. But he wasn’t always like that…
Growing up Jim had a hard time reading. He failed spelling bs and he had to work 10 times as hard as the other kids just to pass tests. He was always falling behind and recurring head injuries didn’t help. Until one day after recovering from yet another injury, he became facinated with the way the mind works.
Now Jim works with top celebrities to maximize thier mind power. He dives deep into sensory deprivation caves, hikes around deep amazonian rain-forests and takes wild trips on zero gravity machines. He’s got a picture of him standing next to every top celebrity that you dream of meeting.
How did all this happen for a kid who grew up not knowing how to read?
You can learn all that and more on this 26th episode of ShopTalk Radio.

I was born in a low middle class conservative religious family in the suburbs of Seattle. Art was and always has been my passion, and more than that a way of life. Starting as a graphic designer, I taught myself photography, built a commercial/editorial business shooting for the worlds biggest brands like Nike, Coca-Cola, Adidas and more. I've also had the opportunity to photograph the world's biggest celebrities like Justin Bieber, Usher, Jessica Alba and more. I've curated a lifestyle around creativity and have learned a lot along the way which I get to share here.
