Doing it Anyways (with Miranda of Roo Floral)
My friends really are the coolest with the most unreal careers. Today on the podcast, Miranda joins me to talk all things Roo Floral and how a tight time crunch somehow turned into a full blown business (as it does).What I loved most about this conversation is how clearly Miranda’s love for her work comes through. Her courage to step into something completely new, without having it all figured out, is wildly inspiring. Proof that confidence usually shows up after you start, not before.We chat about how she got into flowers, navigating im...

Next Time, Just Hire Us!!
Ever see a marketing campaign, ad, or rebrand and think, “Nope. Missed opportunity”? Yeah, us too.In this episode, we’re unpacking standout marketing wins, major flops, and rebrands that left us confused.

And honestly… some of these ideas have legs.If you’re listening and thinking, “Wait, this is actually good,” great news, we’re available. We even lay out the kind of metrics we’d guarantee by the end of the episode. (Aff...

I still can’t believe this happened, but THE guy from the plane is on the podcast. Yes. That guy. And he’s sharing his side… like WHAT??This felt like a girls debrief, but with the guy??? And it was the first time we’d spoken since. He answered some questions (and maybe sparked a few new ones), and we almost had a part three to the story, in a completely different country altogether.

Citing Eric Fromm’s original work on defining evil, we discuss his triad of: necrophilious orientation, incestuous symbiosis, and malignant narcissism. Using connections to historical figures and Alfred Hitchcock's ‘Psycho,’ we briefly explore what this triad looks like. After drawing on research across the decades to define characteristics of malignant narcissism, we further discuss the spectrum of antiso...

“Crossing the Bar” by Alfred, Lord Tennyson
S5 E4 ”Crossing the Bar” by Alfred, Lord Tennyson “Crossing the Bar” is a reflective poem written by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. It was first published in 1889, just a few years before the poet’s death. The theme of mortality and the journey from life to death are embedded in these poetic words. “Crossing the Bar” is an extended metaphor to liken death to traversing the “sandbar” that separates the river of life, characterized by its flowing “flood,” from the vast ocean beyond death, referred to as the “boundless deep,” to which we ultimately return.
