Hi Craig, reading what you wrote, I can totally feel that architect’s mindset the structure, the clarity, the way everything cuts straight through the noise
And when you said AI needs to shift from defense mode to creation mode, that hit me right in the chest. I’ve been doing a strategic review for the aesthetics/medical beauty side lately, and honestly I’ve been stuck on the same thought. Everyone’s freaking out about how tech can save time or replace people, and the whole vibe feels tense, but I keep thinking the real play is dream-building, not panic management

Your idea of a third space really stuck with me. The future of high-end experience  whether it’s in your AV world or in my aesthetics world  isn’t about cold, clinical delivery. It’s about the emotional hit, that immersive feeling that pulls people in. Tech is just the backdrop. What really matters is how we shape the human connection sitting on top of it

2026 really is going to be a year where mindset makes or breaks people
Feels great to see someone in a different field thinking this deeply  big resonance here

Wishing you a smooth run into the last month of the year
Rina
