Most founders are missing a person on their team that they don't even have a name for yet.She's not a social media manager. She's not a VA. She's the person who understands the vision deeply enough to build the brand without the founder in the room.Macy and Court have been building Salesgirls together for six years. In this conversation, they talk about what that relationship actually looks like — what a Right Hand does, what she has to be, and what makes the difference between someone who executes and someone who elevates.In this video:→ The real difference between a social media manager and a Right Hand→ What founders miss before they have this person→ The qualities you can't teach (and the ones you can)If you watched this and thought — that's me — we're looking for our next Right Hand to replace Court as she steps into Chief Brand Officer.

Wellness advice can make it feel like there is always one more thing you should be taking. Electrolytes for hydration. NAD for longevity. Hormone support for perimenopause. Probiotics for gut health. But when you are already doing the things and still feel tired, foggy, bloated, inflamed, hormonally off, or like your body is not bouncing back the way it used to, it brings up the question most people are quietly asking: Why is none of this working the way I thought it would?In this episode of The Well Drop, I sit down with Jessica Kane Berman of BodyBio to unpack that question through the lens of cellular health. We talk about why your cell membranes, mitochondria, minerals, gut lining, fatty acids, and liver support may affect how your body responds to everything else you are doing, from hormone support and electrolytes to NAD, gut health, detox, and longevity tools.Jessica Kane Berman is the Chief Brand Officer and co-owner of BodyBio, a third-generation family business focused on science-backed supplements that support health at the cellular level. With a background in brand building, wellness, and family business, Jess helps make complex cellular health science easier to understand so you can make more informed decisions about what you put in your body.What's Discussed:(05:35) Why cellular health matters for energy, resilience, prevention, and longevity.(08:01) Why quick fixes may not work if your cells need support first.(11:21) How cellular health connects to perimenopause, menopause, and hormone processing.(14:02) What to look for in electrolytes and why liquid minerals may matter.(20:13) What PC is and why cell membranes matter for toxins, mitochondria, and aging.(22:46) Why NAD and other longevity tools may not work well if your cell membranes are damaged.(31:30) How to choose better supplements in a crowded wellness space.Listen to this episode of The Well Drop to understand why your supplements may not be giving you the results you expected, how cellular health affects energy, hormones, gut health, and longevity, and what to look at before adding another wellness trend to your routine.Sign up for The Well Drop NewsletterCheck out The Well Drop approved products and brands at amberberger.me/productsFind out more about Amber Berger: Website: http://thewelldrop.comInstagram: @thewelldropFind Out More About Jessica Kane Berman: Instagram: @jesskaneBodyBio Website: https://bodybio.com/ THE WELL DROP

Most architecture, engineering, and construction firms are so focused on building things that they forget to build their brand. Carey Balogh and Lauren Sleeman, the powerhouse duo behind Brand Groupies, have spent their careers fixing exactly that. In this episode, Bryce sits down with both women to talk about what strategic communications actually looks like for leaders in the built environment — and why getting it right changes everything. Carey and Lauren bring a combined perspective that's rare: luxury brand storytelling from Gucci and Hublot meets insider knowledge of the construction and design world. They've used that combination to build a nationally recognized communications firm and a podcast network that ranks in the top 5-10% globally. This conversation covers how leaders in AEC can claim their story, show up with authority, and use podcasting as a real business development tool. This episode is for firm owners, principals, and anyone in the built industry who knows their work is exceptional but struggles to articulate why it matters to the people they want to reach. About Carey Balogh: Carey Balogh is the Founder and Chief Brand Officer of Brand Groupies, a women-owned strategic communications agency serving the built industry, which she founded in 2015. With a background working with luxury brands including Gucci and Hublot, and years of experience abroad and in New York City, Carey brings a global, high-end brand perspective to architecture, design, and real estate. She also launched the Brand Groupies Podcast in 2018 and previously co-founded Frolic!, a children's play space later acquired by the Children's Museum of Manhattan.

Her experience with legacy fashion brands including Hermès and Burberry, combined with her family's roots in construction and design, gives her a rare dual fluency in brand storytelling and the built environment. Under her leadership, Brand Groupies has grown from a boutique agency into a nationally recognized communications firm. She has been recognized on the New York Real Estate Journal's "Rising Stars" list. LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/lauren-sleeman-11437982/ What We Cover: Introduction — who Carey and Lauren are and how Brand Groupies came to be What strategic communications actually means for firms in the built environment Why most AEC firms are underselling themselves and how to fix it What luxury brand storytelling from Gucci and Hermès taught them about the built industry Podcasting as an executive visibility and business development tool How to identify what sets your firm apart when you're too close to see it What it looks like to build a brand that outlasts any individual project or client Where to find Brand Groupies and what working with them looks like Key Takeaways: Your brand is already telling a story — the question is whether you're the one telling it Podcasting isn't just content; it's a relationship-building tool that traditional PR can't replicate The firms that win future work are the ones that make their expertise visible before someone needs to hire them What makes luxury brand storytelling transferable to AEC: specificity, consistency, and knowing exactly who you're talking to You don't need a massive marketing budget to build authority — you need clarity and consistency

That doesn't work either. If it seems you're going through a revolving door of symptoms and trying to juggle responses but failing, this is for you. It's not just that exercise needs change. Periodically, by the way. Every quarter during perimenopause, or at least bi-annually if you're experiencing significant changes, you have to look closely at whether your exercise is causing inflammation or supporting muscle that will help you deal with it. It doesn't matter if you're lifting, you can still be in a moment of significant storm that results in your inflammation being up when recovery isn't keeping up. We discuss the ways women doing all the things can still fail you if you're not getting the foundation you need at the place you need it. We discuss cellular health, liver, detox and the key part these play in whether your lifting, walking and intervals will work. If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels and start seeing results, this conversation will change how you approach doing all the things. My Guest: As Co-Owner and Chief Brand Officer of BodyBio, Jess Kane Berman leads brand strategy, education, and global growth, shaping the company's voice at the intersection of cellular health, environmental wellness, and evidence-based medicine. Jess blends science-backed insights with practical application, empowering women to move away from doing more and toward doing what's right for them. Passionate about cutting through confusion, she helps women simplify their approach to fitness, nutrition, and overall health so they can feel stronger, energized, and back in control.

Send us Fan MailIt was in McAllen, a small town just over 300 miles from Austin, where Donna Varner had a revelation about her new employer. Varner had been hired by Schlotzsky's Deli as Chief Brand Officer, and one of her first tasks was to lead the deli franchise through a rebranding effort. While trying to get back to Schlotzsky's home base in Austin one day, a storm in Texas led to canceled flights, and so Varner and a handful of other people decided to carpool there together instead. After telling her fellow passengers where she worked while passing through McAllen, something stuck out to her: All of them referred to Schlotzsky's as Schlotzsky's Deli. Although the company had dropped Deli from its name during a previous rebranding, Varner realized how important it remained to its identity among its longtime customers. “Every single person in that car knew Schlotzky's because they were Texans. But they all called it Schlotzsky's Deli,” Varner said. “So, one of the things that we found out is even though the brand has had a lot of names and we've dropped deli over the years, we still had a deli heritage.” Loyalty360 spoke to Varner about her rebranding strategy, how the company continues to innovate its loyalty program, and the challenge of attracting a younger generation of diners, while continuing to deliver the service and menu that its most devoted customers expect.

“If you're not staying unhinged, you're not building a memorable brand.” What happens when a two-time Emmy-winning TV anchor walks away from the newsroom to help build one of the most talked-about baby formula brands in the country? Kim Chappell (Chief Brand Officer at Bobbie) sits down with Cody Plofker (CEO at Jones Road Beauty) and Connor MacDonald (CMO at Ridge) to explore what it means to build a purpose-driven brand in a highly regulated, deeply emotional category. Kim shares how a journalism career shaped her instinct for storytelling, why trust is her team's most important metric, and how Cardi B landed in Bobbie's inbox because she was already a customer. From navigating the 2022 national formula shortage — and the $300M in revenue Bobbie deliberately walked away from — to launching the first breastfeeding billboard in Times Square with Molly Baz, Kim breaks down how bold creative decisions get made inside a fast-moving startup. She also digs into Bobbie's partnership philosophy, the brand values that guide every campaign, and why celebrating customer cancellations has become one of their most powerful retention moves.

In this episode, she breaks down how Bobbie built a brand parents are proud to buy in a category that used to be driven by guilt, and why trust beats sheer creative volume when the old Meta scale-button playbook stops working. For DTC founders, CMOs, and performance marketers scaling a trust-heavy product in a crowded category.Inside the episode:Why Bobbie treated infant formula as a culture problem, not just a product problem How the team thinks about brand vs performance now that the old Meta-only growth playbook has weakened What “learn more” looks like when your customer journey is messy, delayed, and omnichannel How Bobbie chooses the few advocacy lanes it can credibly own, then actually follows through Why the Cardi B partnership worked, and how it turned celebrity into conversation share, trust, and policy momentum Who this is for: Operators building in regulated, trust-sensitive, or education-heavy categories where brand has to do real work before performance can convert.What to steal:Put performance, organic, creator, and lifecycle under one brand story Treat education as part of conversion, not a nice-to-have Pick fewer cultural or political lanes, but show up with receipts when you enter them Timestamps00:00 Performance marketing has changed03:00 Building Bobbie from scratch06:00 Removing the stigma around formula08:00 Why Bobbie understood the customer10:00 Transparency as brand strategy12:00 Brand vs performance15:00 The omnichannel customer journey18:00 Choosing the right advocacy lanes21:00 Community-led brand action23:00 Building awareness in a small market26:00 How the Cardi B partnership happened29:00 Measuring the campaign's impactSubscribe to DTC Newsletter - https://dtcnews.link/signupAdvertise on DTC - https://dtcnews.link/advertiseWork with Pilothouse - https://dtcnews.link/pilothouseFollow us on Instagram & Twitter - @dtcnewsletterWatch this interview on YouTube - https://dtcnews.link/video
“If you become really good at harnessing that data, AI can let you not only predict the future, but create it.” Jenna Habayeb (President of Posh Peanut) sits down with Jason Panzer (President of HexClad) and honorary Operator's co-host Cherene Aubert. Together, they unpack what modern ecommerce leadership looks like at every stage. Jenna brings a rare arc — from Ogilvy to Chief Brand Officer at Ipsy, where she helped grow the business from $300M to $1B, through a CRO role at Ruggable, and now her first president role at Posh Peanut. Discover the “forgotten community flywheel” and how a 250,000-person Facebook group drives real revenue. The conversation moves on to why most companies are further behind on data infrastructure than they'd like to admit — and why AI, layered on top of a clean data warehouse, is changing what's possible. They also get into the evolution of the CMO role, managing teams up a mountain without losing your humanity, and the mental shift required when you go from marketer to president.

International Women's Month SeriesLorey Zlotnick is the Founder and Chief Brand Officer of Zequity Marketing. Before launching her consultancy, she led brand divisions at Disney, FOX Sports, and the NFL - guiding transformations that shaped the modern media landscape.What I love about Lorey's story is that none of it was planned.She wanted to be a writer. Got a degree in fashion merchandising, minored in journalism, dreamed of writing for big fashion magazines. But life had other plans. Journalists were getting laid off in Detroit and one morning she was scraping ice off her windshield with a credit card and thought: what am I still doing here? So she moved to California knowing absolutely no one.From there, she landed at Nestle. Then the Los Angeles Times. One day she saw an ad for a job at the Disney Channel. She had no television background whatsoever. But she applied anyway. Met someone at an event who happened to run programming there. Handed him her resume. And here's the incredible part—the day she got offered the job, a rejection letter from the same company arrived in the mail.That moment launched her entire career.We talked about what it was like navigating male-dominated industries with no roadmap. Most of her bosses were men. There were no women's groups back then. No one showed her the way. But what struck me is how she learned just as much from bad leadership as good. Her reframe: that didn't feel right, but now I know what I don't want to be for other people.We also got into what pushed her to finally start her own consultancy. She realized she was sitting on decades of knowledge—from the boardroom to the locker room. And she wanted to deploy it differently. Help smaller companies and founders tell their stories the way the big brands do.Her advice is simple: evolve or die. Stay relevant. Don't be afraid to fail—because failure is what creates success. And don't leave a woman alone at the table.Connect with Lorey on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/loreyzlotnick/Learn more about Zequity Marketing https://www.zequitymarketing.com/THE RE:INVENTION EXCHANGE - for more Inspired Content, Blogs, Podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

Daniel Groh, Chief Brand Officer at SATISFY, breaks down how the brand builds an emotion-first running world that turns casual observers into true fans. He explains why Satisfy treats people as guests, not customers, and how speaking to "people who run" opens the door to more honest, human storytelling. Daniel shares how they use emotional athlete content, localized community runs, and shock-and-awe moments at events like UTMB and Cocodona to create loyalty in a world where loyalty is fragile. He also unpacks their 80/20 creative approach, content "drips and drops," and why the moment a brand gets lazy, whether in product, content, or experiences, its audience will drop them.

Elliot Moss didn't join a law firm to keep things the same. As Partner and Chief Brand Officer at Mishcon de Reya LLP, he brought a deep understanding of branding into a profession that often dismisses it, and changed how one of the UK's top firms thinks about growth and perception. He shares how clarity, consistency, and emotional intelligence turned Mishcon from a £45 million practice into a £380 million brand defined by truth and differentiation, not slogans. Clients, he says, may buy expertise, but they stay because of trust and how a firm makes them feel. He talks candidly about leading change in a culture that prizes logic over emotion, showing how small wins and patience can reshape perception from within. The conversation moves beyond marketing into the psychology of leadership, exploring why authentic differentiation matters more than polish and how strong branding can become a firm's greatest competitive advantage. For Elliot, the future of law will belong to those who understand that perception drives performance—and that real brand power is earned, not advertised.

In this special masterclass of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta sits down with Jamie Holmes, Chief Brand Officer of Timeline, to rethink skincare through the lens of longevity. Instead of chasing “anti-aging,” Timeline centers skin health span—keeping skin energetic, resilient, and vibrant for as long as possible. Holmes frames aging as a privilege and makes the case for supporting biology, not hiding it.At the heart of the conversation is Urolithin A, the postbiotic behind Timeline's proprietary MitoPure®. You'll hear how this molecule triggers mitophagy—the cellular cleanup that renews tired mitochondria—so skin can generate more energy and recover from stressors faster. After a decade of research in nutrition, Timeline translated the clinically precise dose into topicals, creating a tight edit of formulas that show measurable gains in hydration and elasticity in as little as 15 days.Jamie opens the lab door on formulation philosophy: no label dusting, just actives at proven concentrations, iterated for texture, absorption, and real-world performance. Even the details matter—the sustainable glass and aluminum, hygienic pumps, and that buttery-yellow hue that reflects MitoPure's natural color—turning daily care into a gender-inclusive ritual. The lineup is intentionally minimalist, designed to slip into any routine and serve both biohackers and skincare newcomers who want evidence over hype.If you're curious about mitochondria as the next frontier in beauty—or you're simply ready to trade quick fixes for cellular results—this episode is your guided tour. Tune in to learn how Timeline is redefining beauty with science you can feel and results you can see.To learn more about Timeline, visit their website and social media.CHAPTERS:(0:02) – Introduction and Welcome(1:05) – Redefining Anti-Aging and Skin Health Span(3:30) – Mitochondria and Cellular Function(5:20) – Early Signs of Aging and Skincare Gaps(6:26) – Timeline's Ingredient Integrity and Active Formulations(8:00) – Urolithin A and MitoPure Science(10:23) – Transition from Nutrition to Skincare(14:44) – Product Development, User Experience, and Packaging(20:08) – Longevity Consumer Mindset and Unisex ApproachPlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!
