Tom Barber, co-founder of Original Travel, joins special edition host Aditi Arora, Consultancy Director at Matter of Form, to discuss the evolution of luxury travel and the post-pandemic boom in three-generational trips that are reshaping how families experience the world together. From grandparents funding transformative journeys to parents seeking deeper connections with their children through travel, Tom explores why multi-generational adventures have become one of the industry's fastest-growing segments. We delve into the concept of "stealth learning"—subtly nurturing children's emerging interests through travel—and why Tom believes the best trips focus on transformation rather than just destination. Tom shares insights from 22 years in the industry, from the early Big Short Breaks offering to today's focus on authentic cultural immersion, responsible tourism, and creating experiences that genuinely change who you are rather than just where you've been. The conversation touches on combating over-tourism, the shift from Instagram-driven travel to emotion-focused journeys, and why Tom's own children have become his best travel critics and inspiration for family-focused offerings.

Take action instead of overthinking. Ask, “What's the worst that can happen?” and plan how you'd handle that outcome. Shift from Gap to Gain (Dan Sullivan's The Gap and the Gain): Gap: Comparing yourself to an ideal keeps happiness out of reach. Gain: Measuring progress against where you started builds confidence. Daily Gain habit: End each day by writing three wins big or small (e.g., waking up early, finishing laundry). Gratitude rewires your brain to spot opportunities, not deficits.  See life as a bowl of opportunities. Treat every success or setback as a chance to learn and grow. Mindset is a personal choice, open to everyone no matter their starting point.

Greenly is transforming how businesses approach carbon management, evolving from a consumer app to a comprehensive B2B platform that serves over 3,000 corporate customers. With $78 million in funding, the company has positioned itself at the forefront of the carbon accounting market by making sustainability tracking accessible and automated for mid-market companies. In this episode of Category Visionaries, we sat down with Alexis Normand, CEO and Co-Founder of Greenly, to explore the company's remarkable journey from multiple pivots to becoming a leader in carbon management software. Topics Discussed: Greenly's evolution from a consumer carbon tracking app to B2B carbon management platform The strategic pivots that led to finding product-market fit in corporate carbon accounting How regulatory pressure and supply chain demands are driving market adoption The company's approach to building a beautiful, educational brand in a complex technical space Scaling from zero to 3,000 customers through direct acquisition and growth tactics The differences between European and US markets for sustainability software Moving upmarket from SMB to mid-market to improve retention metrics GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Embrace rapid experimentation without killing past initiatives: Alexis didn't immediately abandon previous products when exploring new directions. Instead of completely shutting down the consumer app and banking API, Greenly ran multiple experiments simultaneously. This approach allowed them to maintain revenue streams while testing new markets. The key insight is that early-stage founders should add new experiments rather than kill existing ones, only sunsetting products once new initiatives prove more viable. Leverage market timing and external pressure: Greenly's success wasn't just about building great software—it was about timing their entry when external forces were creating demand. The trickle-down effect of large enterprises requiring carbon data from suppliers created natural buying pressure. As Alexis explained, "When companies start to pledge a real decarbonization pathway, they're asking their suppliers to track their footprint too." B2B founders should identify similar cascading market dynamics where regulatory or business pressures create natural demand for their solutions. Start with underserved segments to build product depth: Rather than targeting large enterprises with existing solutions, Greenly focused on SMBs and mid-market companies who couldn't afford expensive consultants. This strategy allowed them to serve 3,000 customers and encounter "all the corner cases," building a more robust product. While VCs initially questioned the SMB approach, this volume taught them which customers had staying power versus those who only needed periodic compliance help. Make complex topics accessible through brand and education: Greenly's consumer heritage influenced their B2B approach, focusing on education and simplification rather than assuming buyer expertise. Their core value of "making people smarter about climate" translated into clear explanations of concepts like Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. As Alexis noted, "Explaining rather complex things simply is actually harder than you think." B2B founders in technical categories should prioritize education and clarity over industry jargon. Follow the economics to find your true market: Greenly's multiple pivots weren't random—they followed customer willingness to pay and market size potential. When the consumer app reached 40,000 users, they calculated the banking API market at $50-100 million total addressable market. Corporate carbon accounting offered significantly larger opportunity. B2B founders should consistently evaluate whether their current path leads to venture-scale outcomes and pivot based on economic realities, not just product traction.   //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe.  www.GlobalTalent.co   //   Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Unlocking Influencer Marketing: A Conversation with Adam Rivietz of #PaidIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge speaks with Adam Rivietz, CSO and Co-Founder of #Paid, a platform revolutionizing influencer marketing by connecting brands with vetted creators. Adam shares how influencer marketing has evolved, the top challenges brands face, and how to approach creator partnerships more strategically.Navigating the Influencer Marketing LandscapeAdam opens the episode by reflecting on his personal journey, including how he overcame a fear of public speaking through stand-up comedy. This experience, he explains, mirrors the importance of authenticity—a key component in successful influencer marketing. Adam emphasizes that storytelling and genuine experiences resonate deeply, both on stage and in branded content.He goes on to describe the early skepticism brands had toward influencer marketing in 2014, and how platforms like #Paid have helped shift that perception. Today, brands recognize the value of creator-driven campaigns that feel native and personal. Adam discusses how declining organic reach, the rising cost of ads, and content fatigue are major challenges marketers face.#Paid addresses these issues by connecting brands with vetted creators who deliver authentic content and better engagement.

Guest and HostGuest: Regan Sommer McCoy, Chief Curator of Mixtape Museum | Website: https://sommer.nyc/Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/Show NotesIn this episode of Music Evolves, host Sean Martin connects with Sommer McCoy, founder of the Mixtape Museum, to explore how a simple cassette tape became a cultural vehicle for creativity, connection, and entrepreneurship—especially within hip hop. Sommer's journey starts with managing hip hop artists like the Clipse, where a label dispute revealed the real power of mixtapes as grassroots distribution tools when the industry's gatekeepers were roadblocks.Sommer describes mixtapes as more than just homemade compilations; they are living archives of personal and collective history. From recording DJ sets off the radio to carefully curating tapes for summer camp, these stories form a thread that binds generations. Through the Mixtape Museum, Sommer captures not only the tapes themselves but also the hidden data inside—the handwritten J-cards, the audio quality that degrades with each copy, and the layers of social exchange that gave rise to underground music scenes.What's striking is that the Mixtape Museum does not seek to own every cassette but instead to document, digitize, and study them. Sommer, a database manager by day, focuses on preserving the stories and metadata behind each tape, spotlighting the artists, DJs, collectors, and communities that sustained the mixtape era. Supported by a Grammy Preservation Grant, she's already digitized dozens of tapes while helping other collectors understand how to safeguard their archives.The conversation touches on how mixtapes laid the groundwork for today's playlists and streaming culture—yet today's digital curation lacks the physical, handcrafted artistry that made each cassette unique. Sommer's mission is to encourage collectors and students alike to look deeper: to uncover forgotten shoebox treasures in attics, to share memories, and to research how these tapes shaped music and culture long before social algorithms took over.At its heart, the Mixtape Museum is an open invitation to honor the past while inspiring new ways to think about music's role in documenting who we are. For Sommer, each cassette holds more than songs—it holds a memory worth saving.SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring this show or placing an ad in the podcast?Sponsorship

This week on SUPERWOMEN, I'm joined by Aliett Buttelman, co-founder of Fazit Beauty, the cosmetics startup making waves with its viral glitter freckle makeup patches. Fresh out of college, Aliett launched her own consulting company, which led her to Nina LaBruna, who at the time had just started her own skin care company. The two teamed up in a dorm room and formed the powerhouse partnership we know today. What began as a brand focused on skin care patches for acne scars and ingrown hairs began to evolve when a playful idea, using a paper stencil to apply makeup in seconds, became the catalyst for Fazit's breakout success.At first unsure how the idea fit into Fazit's vision, Aliett took the leap after testing the product in public. One dinner reservation, a VIP table and a flood of compliments later, she knew they had something big. What started as a playful experiment turned into a viral sensation and a surprise wear by none other than Taylor Swift. In this episode, Aliett shares what it's taken to keep up with the demand, stay ahead of copycats and invent products that blend joy, convenience and creativity. She opens up about the realities of entrepreneurship in your 20s, the pressure to scale fast and what it's like to go viral while still figuring it all out behind the scenes.Aliett's story is a reminder that some of the most disruptive ideas are born out of a willingness to take risks, even when the path forward isn't fully clear. Her journey proves that innovation doesn't always come from industry veterans or massive budgets, but from founders who are deeply connected to their community, curious about what's next and unafraid to rethink how beauty can look, feel and function. Whether you're building a brand, searching for your next creative spark or just love a good product origin story, this episode is a front-row seat to the future of beauty, sparkly freckles and all.Thank you for listening!

REWIND EPISODE FROM THE LF&F ARCHIVES (Synopsis)- From sabotaged performances in rural North Carolina to besieged Drag Story Hour events in diverse urban neighborhoods, the ongoing struggle for LGBTQ+ rights is being fought on multiple fronts, with activists, artists, and journalists joining forces to resist a surge in anti-queer hostility and promote a culture of acceptance and inclusivity. Stay informed and engaged!

State legislators, so far this year, have proposed and in some cases passed, hundreds of bills that seek to restrict drag culture and queer self-expression. Proud Boys have harassed and threatened Drag Story Hour events across the country, even in the diverse borough of Queens, NY. In this episode of The Laura Flanders Show's monthly feature, Meet the BIPOC Press, Laura and co-host Mitra Kalita (co-founder of URL Media) are joined from North Carolina by Naomi Dix, an influential drag artist whose show in rural Moore County was disrupted by a sabotage attack on an energy substation — an attack that left 45,000 households and businesses in the dark for five days in December 2022. We're also joined by reporter Sam Zachar, the producer of a two-part podcast series for Epicenter-NYC on NYC's Drag Story Hours — what they are, and what they're up against.“We never thought in a million years, especially drag artists of my generation, that we would have to be facing the same things and issues that our parents were telling us that they were having to face in the 50s and the 60s and the 70s and the 80s.” - Naomi Dix“What we're seeing is an overlapping of the identities that our communities represent, and the approach to how we combat these forces. It's really powerful when we can say the counter protestors outnumber those who don't want us here.” - Mitra Kalita“I think that Drag Story Hour as a whole gives us a great look and a microcosm of drag trans and queer worlds, because it represents how they're being attacked in terms of losing rights to exist safely, and the Proud Boys, specifically digging their heels into inflammatory, destructive and untruthful accusations against these communities.” - Sam ZacharGuests:•  Naomi Dix, Drag Artist, Activist & Member of Durham NC BIPOC Operated House of Coxx;  Co-Chair, Pride: Durham, NC  www.naomidix.com•  Sam Zachar, Reporter, Podcast Producer, Epicenter-NYC•  S.

It was the biggest domestic terrorist attack on the electricity grid in the U.S. Did the sabotage attack have anything to do with LGBTQ harassment or the drag performance scheduled that night? SAVE THE DATE July 16th 7pm EDT:  Laura hosts an online conversation just for our donors.

2025 marks the 60th anniversary of the release of The Sound of Music, an enormously successful Hollywood film with fans all over the world. As with any story Hollywood translates to the silver screen, the film is a mix of fact and fiction. What is not fiction, however, is that the leading male protagonist, Captain Georg von Trapp, had served in the Austro-Hungarian Navy and was a decorated veteran of World War I.
