Alex Babajanyan is an artist. But art alone wasn't the right fit. He opened an art academy—to teach his students art and how to see the world in a new way. His journey to founder was far from ordinary, including a project for the band U2, an illustration project at Disney, running a design company, and even working with Sean Penn on a documentary film. Alex now runs his academy in Los Angeles, CA and teaches art at a local elementary school.
In the first episode of My Big Story (previously titled Living Your Journey), Christopher and Alex discuss his career journey diving into details and the things that helped him discover his larger passion.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
