In this insightful episode of the Blackletter Podcast, host Tom Dunlap sits down with Claire Gibson, partner at Dunlap, Bennett & Ludwig, to explore the intricate world of intellectual property (IP) in the fashion industry. Claire brings her two decades of experience handling both domestic and international trademarks to discuss how fashion brands leverage IP protection for global expansion and brand identity. From iconic examples like Tiffany Blue and Chanel to lesser-known challenges like trade dress and functionality issues, Claire explains the nuances that make fashion IP unique. The conversation also highlights the legal complexities of naming brands after designers, the risks involved, and how acquired distinctiveness plays a key role in securing trademark rights. Whether you're a legal professional, a fashion entrepreneur, or just curious about how trademarks shape the fashion industry, this episode is packed with expert insights and engaging discussions.
Claire works for the NHS in UK specialising in a number of disciplines to help anxiety, phobia, trauma and shame.

I speak with novelist Claire Gibson about her unusual journey toward publication, from roving the country as a young Army brat, to living at West Point as a faculty daughter, to the fateful day when a close friend made a galvanizing observation: she was in a unique position to capture the lives and experiences of the women of West Point in the 9/11 generation. The result was Beyond the Point, published by William Morrow in 2019.Claire and I met last year at Writerfest in Nashville — I found her soft-spoken demeanor belied a shrewd eye for the interior dramas of other people. Reading Beyond the Point I knew I had to have her on the podcast. Listen above or watch below.One of my favorite aspects of the novel involved her descriptions of the setting and the community of West Point itself. We talk about Claire's childhood growing up in a military family and how, in her own college experience, she faced opinions antagonistic to some of the values with which she grew up.We talk at length about the struggles particular to the writing life, from the nagging sense that there's always something you ‘should' be doing that would better serve those around you, particularly when you're a parent, and how creating space in your routine to allow for imagination's work is a prerequisite for everything that follows.Claire is currently at work on her second novel. She shares a piece of invaluable advice from author Dani Shapiro that may sound brutal to the uninitiated…As an avid reader I'm always down to talk books. We trade a few favorite recent titles. And I remember saying something about being intimidated by the same writers who inspire me.This was a great conversation between two bonafide book nerds and I hope in listening you're inspired to write something, read something, feel something.Find Claire:instagram https://www.instagram.com/clairecgibson website https://www.clairegibson.com/about Get full access to The Morse Code at korby.substack.com/subscribe
Meet Teresa Beck and Claire Gibson, two successful and experienced litigators who are deeply involved in the ABA Litigation Section's Woman Advocate Committee and its two books featuring essays from women in the legal profession: “Her Story: Lessons in Success from Lawyers Who Live It” (2017) and the recent follow-up “Her Story: The Resilient Woman Lawyer's Guide to Conquering Obstacles” (2024). The new book addresses the challenges women face in the legal profession and the things organizations and firms do, often unintentionally, that make it harder for women in law, all told through personal stories of struggles and successes. Beck and Gibson, both committed to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, discuss these collections of stories that tap into the experiences of litigators in a range of practice groups, from corporate to government positions. These are situations that arise everywhere, from the courtroom to the boardroom to the lunchroom. Why do women in law still face so many challenges and obstacles? It's nice to imagine gender disparity is a relic of the past, but the statistics tell a different story. There is work for all of us to do, not only toward gender equality but also in racial and ethnic disparities in the legal profession. The stories in these books examine situations that exist, even in organizations that believe they have erased barriers. Fixing the problems starts with acknowledging that they persist. Everyone can learn from this discussion.

As a conversation approach and development tool, coaching is a highly effective option for everyone – not just the executive suite. Professional coaches are expensive, so how can large organisations give all of their employees the chance to be coached and for coaching conversations to be the norm? In this episode of The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Gemma is joined by Mina Papakonstantinou, Manager in the Leadership development team at Deloitte and team mate Claire Gibson to discuss upskilling internal coaches at scale. We talked about: · the benefits of creating a coaching culture · designing and facilitating a coaching skills programme for thousands · measuring and evaluating a coaching programme. In what I learnt this week, Gemma talked about oathing stones – a wedding ceremony ritual. You can read about it and other options: humanism.scot/ceremonies-blog/wedding-ceremony-rituals/ Claire found out about how money is made.

You might offer employees the best content libraries, training or toolkits in the world, but if they don't know what's there, or when or why they'd access it, it's useless. In these situations, you need a creative approach to grab learners' attention and give them compelling reasons to keep them coming back. In this week's episode of The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Gemma is joined by the team behind a successful engagement project at Heathrow Airport: Steph Constantinides, Charlotte Blake and Claire Gibson. We discussed: · how Heathrow colleagues were using the toolkit · the idea-generation and production processes for campaign assets · the results and the future of campaign-based learning at Heathrow. In What I Learnt this Week, Charlotte discussed the surprisingly low percentage of LinkedIn users who contribute content to the platform. Read more about this here: kinsta.com/blog/linkedin-statistics. Claire discovered that she could get US preclearance in Dublin Airport.

The warm and inquisitive Zibby Owens, host of the award-winning literary podcast “Moms Don’t Have Time to Read Books” launches her new celebrated book “Moms Don’t Have Time To: A Quarantine Anthology," a collection of profound, honest, touching and often hilarious essays by some of the best-selling authors working today, which, of course, include Zibby. Dubbed the “Oprah of Books in New York,” Zibby is one of the world’s leading book influencers and the busy mother of four children. We’re all struggling to juggle everything on our plate in 2021, and Zibby’s quarantine anthology gives us insight into everything that moms don’t have time to do from working out, eating, to having sex, to even breathing. Original essays by the preeminent authors of our time include Alli Frank, “How David Sedaris is Helping Me Get By,” Liz Astorf “Moms Don’t Have Time to Cry,” Gretchen Rubin, “Read More Books,” Chris Bohjalian, “The Short Stories I Found in the Sweater Box,” Claire Gibson, “How To Have Sex with a Germaphobe,” and Rachel Levy Lesser, “Breaking Up with My Kids." If you think this book is just about moms, think again. Zibby shares, “So many of the essays are just about life. All of the things we don’t have time to do make life worth living at the end of the day.” All proceeds from her anthology benefit the Susan Felice Owens Program for Covid-19 Vaccine Research at Mount Sinai Health System. In July, Zibby tragically lost her mother-in-law and grandmother-in-law to Covid-19 within six weeks of each other. Zibby reflects, “All of us are going through really tough times right now. I feel more comfortable sharing it, especially in my writing. I’ve never been one to hide. I’ve suffered a ton of loss in my life starting at age twenty-five when I lost my college roommate to 9/11. I take great comfort in the people, even strangers, who have appeared to try to help me. Sometimes it’s not even the people that you know best; it’s the woman on Instagram in Spain who says the right thing and checks in on me daily. I’ve tried to be that person for other people.” We talk to the big-hearted Zibby about everything from authors, books, publishing, how to deal with grief after losing someone to Covid, to finding love and life after divorce, parenting, and faith. Zibby explains the origin of her award-winning literary podcast: "I’ve been a writer and a big reader my whole life. I have four children. I had been writing parenting essays and my husband said, ‘You really should collect all of those essays and make them into a book.’ And I said, ‘Moms don’t have time to read books!’ A friend suggested I start a podcast. I thought, 'What’s a podcast?' I went home and I tried to find the podcast button and I did some research. I knew two authors, so I thought, I’ll just interview them, and I’ve been interviewing authors non-stop for the last three years. It combines everything I love to do." Zibby Owens will get you reading in 2021; she recommends all of the top books! To attend Zibby’s virtual book launch + fundraiser for “Moms Don’t Have Time To: A Quarantine Anthology” February 16th at 7P (EST) buy tickets at zibbyowens.com.

Many black women in America feel pressured to act like or be seen as “strong,” projecting themselves as self-sacrificing, emotionless, and unbreakable in their daily lives. However, the “strong black woman” identity can actually be harmful to black women. In this episode of Figure Out Your Life podcast, I talk with my friends Claire Gibson, an intellectual property attorney, and Courtenay Barton, a philanthropist, about being black women in America and explore how the “strong black woman” identity can negatively impact black women’s lives and well-being.

Monday through Friday, she also has 75 other “kids” as a high school English teacher — her dream job because it allows her to spend her days talking about books and life and introducing students to stories that teach them more about themselves, others, and the world around them. When she’s not driving her minivan to soccer practice or grading papers (actually, often while she does those things thanks to audiobooks), she is usually reading something new/popular just for fun. She loves memoir, thriller/true-crime, romance, literary fiction, and young adult books… Don’t tell, but she much prefers these to most of the “classics.” On the off night she gets the kids to bed on time, Elizabeth blogs at Teaching Sam & Scout about her family, her job, the blending of those two things, and – of course – her recent reads.

Claire Gibson is a Nashville-based author whose work has been featured in The Washington Post, The Christian Science Monitor, and Entrepreneur Magazine, among many other publications. Her debut novel, Beyond the Point, tells the story of a group of female veterans in an incredibly powerful way. In this week’s show, we cover a ton of ground, to include: Her childhood in a military family and growing up at West Point The blessings and curses of writing recent historical fiction How this story came to be What it’s like to publish your first book, and her future plans! And much more!
Welcome to this week’s episode of Women of the Military Podcast. My guest this week is not a female veteran, but is the author of Beyond the Point that is a novel focusing on 3 female cadets and their journey through West Point and beyond. I had an opportunity to read her novel and wanted to share it with all of you and talk to Claire about her military background and how this story came to be. Claire Gibson is a writer based in Nashville, Tennessee. Born and raised at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, Claire went on to study Political Science and Asian Studies at Furman University, where she was recruited by Teach for America to be a middle school history instructor. In 2012, she left the classroom to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a writer. Her work has appeared in the Washington Post, The Tennessean, Marie Claire Magazine, Entrepreneur Magazine and many others. BEYOND THE POINT is her debut novel. Claire was at West Point from 1997 to 2003 she was 10 when they arrived and 16 when she left. She also was there during September 11th. A pivotal time as the cadets who joined prior to that day. Her mom had an open-door policy that allowed the cadets to escape West Point life and spend time at their home. She admired the cadets she met and has kept in contact with them to this day. And they were the ones who asked her to write this novel. The novel is a fictional story of three female cadets who attended West Point, but it is based on experiences that happened to women who attended West Point. So, though the experiences may not have happened to three women, they are experiences that women have faced or experienced. And even Claire’s mom’s experience is woven into the story too. As a female veteran I enjoyed the book because I related to so many of the experiences or had heard of women, I knew experiencing things mentioned. I also learned a lot about what it was like to be a cadet at West Point and other things going on during the war. She hopes people walk away from reading Beyond the Point having a better understanding of what the military is like and possibly bridge the gap between service members and civilians. But she also wants women to see the value of friendship and community. The book shares the story of three women and shows how important friendship is throughout their journey. If you are interested in reading the book please check out my affiliate link with Beyond the Point: A Novel">Amazon here. And if you are in the DC area and would like to meet Claire she will be at Politics and Prose at the Wharf on April 30th at 7. I’ll be there!

Author Claire Gibson discusses her debut novel, "Beyond the Point” which tells the story of three women, Dani, Hannah and Avery, who form a deep bond while attending the United States Military Academy at West Point. Inspired by Claire's childhood at West Point, the story follows their journey through relationships, marriage, careers and tragedy. The passages on grief and faith ring very true and are partly inspired by Claire's own experience with infertility and adoption while writing the novel. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
