Podcasts about Content creation

In this episode, we sit down with a top entrepreneur and filmmaker Stewart Cohen, an expert and business owner of nearly 20 years, to unpack how to build genuine credibility and lasting success in an age of overwhelming digital noise ("cyber noise").Stewart shares timeless principles from his entrepreneurial journey, shaped by a family legacy of business ownership, and contrasts the foundational strategies of the past with the unique challenges of today.Stewart argues that in a world where “social media lies, websites lie,” the most valuable currency is in-person credibility. He provides a masterclass in turning client relationships into your most powerful marketing engine and explains why protecting your audience's attention is the ultimate business discipline.

Brian, Josh & Raven all discuss what it takes to get into content creation as well as sharing their favorite content creators.

How to Write Catchy Titles, Descriptions, and High-Impact Headlines for your websites, email marketing, social media marketing, Pinterest SEO, and more with Favour Obasi-Ike | Sign up for exclusive SEO insights.Episode Summary:In this comprehensive episode + guide on crafting effective digital headlines, titles, and descriptions to boost online engagement. The speaker emphasizes that metadata acts as the essential context for content, serving as the primary factor that drives click-through rates across platforms like Google, YouTube, and LinkedIn. Strategic advice includes maintaining a title length of approximately 55 to 65 characters to avoid text truncation while maximizing visual impact. I also recommend using odd numbers, brackets, and power words to leverage psychological triggers that improve visibility and user trust. Finally, the discussion frames intentional copywriting as a vital tool for business owners to transform passive web traffic into active conversions and long-term brand authority.In high-level digital strategy, titles, descriptions, and headlines are not merely decorative—they serve as the essential "key frames" of metadata. This content architecture bridges the gap between raw information and audience discovery by providing the necessary context (Author, Host, Duration, and Intent) that search algorithms require to categorize an asset. By transforming raw content into searchable, high-value assets, a strategist ensures that the brand is prioritized within the user's search journey.Favour emphasizes that structured delivery and architectural integrity correlate directly to business results. If a title fails to establish immediate relevance, the conversion path is broken before it begins. Success in the current landscape requires a commitment to iterative improvement—ensuring the "next version" of a title or metadata set is systematically optimized based on data rather than intuition. This log details the tactical framework used by Favour, currently ranked #2 (We Don't PLAY!) on the FeedSpot Top 100 Marketing Podcasts (trailing only Gary Vaynerchuk), to drive visibility across SEO, PPC, and email ecosystems.Deep Dive: The Quantitative Science of Click-Through Rates (CTR)To maximize ROI, content creators must move beyond "gut feeling" and toward research-backed optimization. Using industry benchmarks from Orbit Media and Moz, we can calibrate headlines to meet the psychological triggers that drive user action.-------------------------------------------------------------------------Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

The following log segments the Masterclass into thematic chapters, providing the "So What?" factor for each strategic shift.Chapters:Chapter 1: The Metadata Framework [00:00 - 10:00] Context vs. Content. This segment establishes that metadata is the "context" (attributes like host and duration) that allows users to value an asset before engaging. Without these key frames, even high-quality content remains invisible to search engines and the "Exact Searcher Intent."Chapter 2: The Utility of Catchy Copy [10:00 - 18:00] Visibility Across the Funnel. Effective copy acts as the primary catalyst for Click-Through Rates (CTR) across SEO, LinkedIn, and Email. The speaker frames catchy titles as functional tools that pre-condition the audience for engagement and conversion.Chapter 3: The Physics of the Pixel [18:00 - 25:00] Typography Weight. Moving beyond character counts, this chapter introduces the 600-pixel display limit. Strategists must account for the "weight" of individual characters (e.g., a capital "W" vs. a lowercase "l") to prevent truncation and maintain a professional aesthetic on the SERP (Search Engine Results Page).Chapter 4: The Psychology of Numbers [25:00 - 35:00] Time-Value Perception. This section evaluates how numbers (specifically odd numbers) impact user psychology. The "So What?" factor is the "minute-per-item" rule: users subconsciously equate the number of items in a title to the minutes they must invest (e.g., 10 ways = 10 minutes), directly influencing the decision to click.Chapter 5: Platform Evolution [35:00 - 45:00] Ecosystem Logic. The speaker analyzes Instagram's transition to "TV-style" content and LinkedIn's rigid SEO URL logic. The key takeaway is the importance of "Exact Title Match" to meet user intent while navigating platform-specific constraints like DM automation and hashtag limits.Chapter 6: The Podcasting Marathon [45:00 - End] The Milestone Logic. Highlighting the "eighth-episode hurdle" where 500,000 creators quit annually, the speaker discusses his 600-episode milestone and the necessity of IAB Tech Lab compliance. Long-term distribution success is a result of persistence and technical "due diligence."High-Value Quotes"Metadata... that's just another way of saying how do we get context out of this content. Those are attributes... that's the context to the content." - Favour Obasi-ike"A capital W has more weight than a small w. A capital L has more weight than a small l... that weight they carry is a pixel size digitally.""If somebody clicks and finds your content valuable, resourceful, accurate, and responsive, then anything that you're going to do from SEO to PPC ads... you're able to use consistently."Resources:Companies Passing Tech Lab Compliance Programs | Podcast Compliance DirectoriesHeadline Analyzer Tool: Write Better Headlines | Write Better Headlines HereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We love talking about growth mindset, but curiosity without action doesn't move your career forward. In this episode, Jayneil Dalal shares what he's learned from interviewing hundreds of designers—and why the people who actually ship, share, and care about craft are the ones who keep growing.What if the fastest way to grow your career isn't asking for a promotion—but becoming the designer everyone trusts?In this episode, I sit down with Jayneil Dalal to talk less about career ladders and more about what actually earns trust inside organizations. After interviewing hundreds of designers on Design MBA and Sneak Peek, Jayneil has seen the same patterns repeat across teams, companies, and seniority levels.The designers who advance aren't the loudest or the most credentialed. They're the ones who care deeply about their work—clean files, thoughtful handoffs, clear communication, and sharing what they learn with others. No one tells them to do this. They do it because they give a damn, and that care compounds into credibility.We also unpack the idea of “internal brand,” why chasing credit often backfires, and how being generous with your knowledge can quietly change team culture. If you've ever felt invisible at work or unsure how to stand out without self-promotion, this conversation reframes what influence really looks like.Topics:• 04:54 - Early Curiosity and Interviewing Journey• 06:17 - The Birth of a Podcast Idea• 07:23 - Launching Design MBA• 09:53 - The Value of Execution• 12:21 - Challenges and Realizations• 15:36 - Content Creation and Audience Fit• 19:35 - Learning from Top Designers• 22:49 - The Importance of Craft and Mentorship• 38:04 - Advocating for Yourself• 41:58 - Navigating Internal Branding• 46:34 - The Importance of Communication Skills• 48:10 - Balancing Multiple Projects• 51:36 - Effective Use of AI in Design• 53:21 - Public Speaking and Presentation Tips—Thanks for listening!

ONE CITY AT A TIME—There are two kinds of travelers. The first group are those that need to see as many attractions as they can. The second are those that would rather wander around, get a feel for the place they're visiting, and live as much like a local as possible. Neither is better. There's no judgement here. But the people who are behind the bi-annual Fare Magazine are definitely of the latter group.Founded almost ten years ago, each issue of Fare explores a single city, using food as an entry point to talk to locals and tell stories that you won't find in your typical guidebook. You do not read Fare to find lists of must try restaurants. You read it to meet the people that make a city worth living in and worth visiting. You will learn something. And, maybe, this city will go on your list of places to visit. Going from city to city is, of course, not the easiest way to make a magazine, but ten years in, Fare is still going strong, and the business is growing to include new titles and new offers. It's a big world. And I get the sense Fare is going to keep wandering it, meeting the people who make every city taste better.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

In this solo episode, Sarah dismantles the common misconception that being a skilled coach is enough to build a successful business. She explores the dangerous confusion between Professional Development (becoming a better coach) and Business Development (learning how to acquire clients).Sarah explains why highly intelligent coaches—especially those with HR or procurement backgrounds—often struggle the most, and why the industry sees an 82% failure rate. She offers a liberating perspective: struggling to find clients isn't a failure of your coaching ability, but simply a lack of a separate, learnable skill set.Key Takeaways1. The Misunderstanding of Client AcquisitionMost coaches graduate believing client acquisition is intuitive, assuming that "casting a wide net" is the right strategy2. Defining the Two DisciplinesProfessional Development: This covers what your qualification taught you: core competencies, listening skills, ethics, and facilitating transformation. It ensures you are qualified to coachBusiness Development: This encompasses market research, pricing psychology, sales processes, and sustainable business modelling. It requires translating what you do into language that potential clients actually understand.3. The "Content Creation" TrapBelieving that competence attracts clients, coaches often default to writing about "confidence," "resilience," or their specific methodology.Have you enjoyed this episode? Find out more and take the FREE quiz at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thecoachingrevolution.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join the FREE Facebook group at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/buildacoachingbusiness⁠⁠

The Knicks win the NBA Cup — but how much does it actually matter? On this episode of Combo's Court, Combo is joined by Mr. Foamer Simpson to break down what the NBA Cup means for fans, players, and modern basketball culture. Is it something worth celebrating, or is the reaction itself the real story? From there, the conversation shifts to the biggest basketball question right now: Is Nikola Jokić already the greatest player ever? Combo and Foamer challenge the idea that every generation automatically gets better and unpack how we really measure greatness across eras. The episode also dives into content creation truths — what actually works in today's world, why authenticity beats perfection, and how creators balance credibility with virality. They wrap with sneaker culture talk, underrated classics, and lifestyle debates that blend sports, culture, and creativity. Topics include: • Knicks winning the NBA Cup — celebration or overreaction? • Does the NBA Cup actually matter? • Is Nikola Jokić the GOAT? • Content creation myths vs reality • Why sneaker culture feels different today

“I will say, as someone who has auditioned hundreds and hundreds, if not over a thousand, voiceover artists and listened to very talented people doing the same take over and over again, the recording quality, the sound quality, absolutely matters. And it's an immediate… There are so many people for me where it's an immediate ‘no,' because the moment I hear the sound quality and it's not totally up to a pro level, I assume tons of things about that.” – Wil Seabrook This episode's guest is a former Warner Bros recording artist and the founder of two award-winning creative agencies, and he's produced over 8,000 videos and commercials for some of the world's biggest and most successful companies. His name is Wil Seabrook, and this week we'll be talking about how sound design affects his creative process, what people should keep in mind about sound when it comes to their own projects, and what role he sees AI playing in the short and long term when it comes to sounds of all sorts. If you work in sound and you're struggling to find your place in the modern marketplace? You'll definitely want to listen in on this conversation.

(0:00:01) - Musicians' Early Sound Influences and JourneysAs our conversation starts, Wil recall his earliest memories of sound, and the impression that hearing a Simon & Garfunkel song made on both him and his parents. “I came home from preschool,” he recalls, “and I was talking to my mother, and I kept saying Funkle, Funkle. She's like, ‘what the heck are you talking about? You want a pencil?' And she finally figured out that I wanted to listen to Simon & Garfunkel.” He talks about his early career as a musician, some of his missteps along the way and how he's helped his son avoid them, and how social media has transformed the music scene. “I think the rise of social media,” he says, “the way things have changed in the last ten, fifteen years, you just realize what an incredible amount of talent there is in the world… now you can just sit down with your phone and a guitar and make a beautiful noise and inspire people, and I do think that part's neat.”(0:08:57) - The Power of Music in CommunicationThe discussion continues as Wil talks about his shift from working with Fortune 500 companies to helping small businesses establish their brand, and the different approach it requires. “It's a much more emotional journey,” he explains. “But I get to be more helpful with more things. I'm not just creating content, I'm helping them put it out into the world, improve their business, and I find that fun and engaging.” He also offers some firsthand advice to voice actors who might find themselves frustrated with the auditioning process. “Don't automatically assume that you did something wrong,” he tells us, “or that you've made a mistake, or that you're not talented, or that you're not doing everything right. You could do everything right and still not be the person who gets...

In this open discussion episode, host Sam J leads conversations about AI's role in creative work, NFT technology's potential future, content creation strategies, and live streaming.This episode covers:AI as a tool, not replacement: Understanding that AI should augment creative work rather than replace human artists, with the real issue being employers who prioritize cost-cutting over collaboration and quality.NFT technology's untapped potential: How blockchain and NFTs could return ownership rights to creators across industries like music, research, and visual arts, moving beyond the hype cycle to practical utility applications.Livestreaming as portfolio building: Sam shares his first livestreaming experience showing creative processes in real-time, demonstrating how creators can build trust and attract clients by revealing their work methods and problem-solving approaches.Content creation strategy: Converting long-form livestreams into multiple short-form pieces provides sustainable content pipelines without constant production pressure, using tools like Stream Elements for multi-platform broadcasting.Creative side hustles framework: Approaching side projects from genuine gift-making and passion rather than viral content goals, building sustainable income streams by demonstrating unique skills and connecting with audiences authentically.Community engagement value: How showing authentic creative processes—even imperfect work—encourages others to share and builds supportive networks that sustain careers beyond formal education or traditional employment.Upcoming Events:Next week's episode: Scaling Creative Side Hustles - discussing how to grow creative projects that support your career and give creativity back to yourselfMonday Meeting is taking January off to plan 2026 contentMonday Meeting is still seeking volunteers for hosting, editing, and social media rolesVisit MondayMeeting.org for this episode and other conversations from the motion design community!SHOW NOTES:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Monday Meeting Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Monday Meeting Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting Newsletter⁠Sergio Cilli's “Will AI Actors Replace Us?”Behance Livestreaming/Adobe LIVE

Wie bei vielen Phänomenen unserer Gegenwart offenbaren sich auch beim Einsatz von GenAI im Kontext der Fashion-Branche sowohl Potentiale als auch Risiken: Während Branchenvertreter*innen die vielfältigen Innovations- und ökonomischen Potentiale der Technologie wittern, sehen Jurist*innen primär persönlichkeitsrechtlichen Klärungsbedarf. Fashion Models sehen wiederum ihre Existenzgrundlage bedroht. Anlass genug, damit wir uns in der aktuellen Episode "Perspectives on: GenAI in Fashion" zusammen mit dem Experten David Wenzel mit aktuellen Entwicklungen rund um generative KI im Kontext der Modebranche zu beschäftigen. Wie verändern KI-Anwendungen dort die Content Creation, welche Folgen hat dies für Kostenstrukturen, Arbeitsfelder und Konsumentenerwartungen? Ausgehend von diesen Fragen, werden wir außerdem aufzeigen, welche Kompetenzen zukünftig in diesem Arbeitsfeld relevant bleiben und welche ethischen Fragen beim Einsatz von GenAI zu berücksichtigen sind.

Now on Spotify Video! When Reid Hoffman first began studying artificial intelligence at Stanford, the world wasn't ready for it yet. Years later, inspired by conversations with top tech innovators, he recognized AI's potential and seized the moment. As the founding investor in OpenAI and co-founder of Inflection AI, he's at the forefront of shaping AI and the future of work.

Welcome to episode #1014 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a moment when careers feel increasingly precarious and algorithms quietly dictate how value is created and captured, it's worth learning from someone who has spent more than two decades helping creators and entrepreneurs reclaim ownership of their work and their futures. Joe Pulizzi is the founder of multiple influential startups, including Content Marketing Institute, The Tilt, the Content Entrepreneur Expo and is widely recognized as the person who first coined the term "content marketing" in 2001, long before it became an industry unto itself. A bestselling author of seven books, including Epic Content Marketing and Content Inc., Joe has helped shape how organizations and individuals think about audience building, trust, and long-term value creation, earning the Content Council's Lifetime Achievement Award for his impact on the field. After successfully exiting Content Marketing Institute in 2016, he expanded his creative range by writing the award-winning mystery novel The Will To Die, while continuing to host two long-running podcasts, including This Old Marketing, the longest-running marketing news podcast in the world. His latest book, Burn The Playbook: How Creators And Entrepreneurs Escape The 9–5 And Build Businesses That Last, serves as the catalyst for this conversation and reflects a deeply personal mission inspired by his children: to help people stop renting their futures and start building assets they truly own. In the discussion, Joe explores the evolution of content and audience strategy, the underestimated power of repetition in building trust, the growing importance of individual creators over faceless brands, and why human connection matters more than ever in this AI-accelerated world. He also addresses the role of paid promotion, the practical integration of AI into creative work, and why serving a clearly defined audience remains the most durable path to meaning, freedom, and sustainable wealth.

Mr. Beast Biography Flash a weekly Biography.Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast, has spent the past few days doing what he does best: blending spectacle, business strategy, and a carefully managed public image into one nonstop storyline. In his home state of North Carolina, local outlet Chapelboro reports that he is set to appear at the UNC men's basketball game against USC Upstate, where he will run a ten thousand dollar giveaway exclusively for students, with an in‑arena appearance at halftime and the giveaway taking place after the final buzzer. That kind of campus‑scale stunt is classic MrBeast: hyperlocal, highly photogenic, and guaranteed to generate social clips that will live far beyond one night in the Dean Smith Center.On the business front, the longer arc of his empire may be shifting in a profound way. TechCrunch reports that his new CEO at Beast Industries, Jeff Housenbold, has openly floated the idea of a future public offering, saying they want the roughly 1.4 billion unique viewers who watched MrBeast content in the last 90 days to have a chance to be owners of the company. That is not a formal IPO filing, but it is a clear, on‑the‑record signal that an eventual listing is on the table, and it would mark one of the first true creator‑led conglomerates to step onto public markets, with Feastables candy now described as the most profitable piece of the business.At the same time, MrBeast is leaning even harder into philanthropy as brand strategy. The 1 Billion Followers Summit has launched a global campaign called 1 Billion Acts of Kindness with MrBeast, in collaboration with his company, the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives, and the Varkey Foundation. Official terms show that creators worldwide are being asked to post videos of acts of kindness, tag MrBeast, and compete for a January 2026 trip with him to Ghana, where they will help build a village and appear in his content. That initiative, running right now, positions him not just as an entertainer but as a global organizer of influencer philanthropy.Overlaying all of this is the unresolved legal and reputational cloud: TechCrunch, citing prior reporting, notes the ongoing litigation over MrBeast Burger and the lawsuits from contestants on the first season of Beast Games alleging mistreatment and a toxic work environment. Those cases have not been resolved publicly, and any new filings or statements would be major news; for now, the most recent verified developments are the continuing suits and his guarded comments about having “learned” from running a 2,000‑person competition. Anything beyond that, including rumored settlements or internal policy changes, remains speculative and unconfirmed.There are also forward‑looking product headlines: fintech industry outlet The Paypers reports that MrBeast is working on a financial services platform and Beast Mobile, a phone company aimed squarely at his audience. Details are sparse, and there is no launch date yet, but if executed, those moves would push him from consumer packaged goods and shows into something closer to a lifestyle ecosystem, with payments, connectivity, and media all under one fan‑facing umbrella. Some social chatter has tried to connect those plans directly to IPO timing, but no credible outlet has reported any regulatory filings or dates, so talk of an imminent listing is, at this stage, pure speculation.Across social media, clips from his recent conversation on the attention economy with Jeff Housenbold have been circulating, showing him doubling down on a brutal work ethic, the idea that every day ending in “Y” is a workday, and a willingness to be “humbled” by more traditional hosts as he refines Beast Games. Coverage of Season 2 of that show, including a Survivor‑style twist highlighted by entertainment site The Knockturnal, frames him as increasingly comfortable stepping back and letting contestants drive the story, an evolution that could matter for his long‑term reputation as more than just the guy shouting over stunts.That is your rapid‑fire update on MrBeast's world this week.

A MODERN MAGAZINE EDITOR IN A POST-MAGAZINE WORLD—In the media storm that is 2025, the person you want captaining your ship is smart, decisive, and cool, calm, and collected—in other words, she's Nikki Ogunnaike.The editor-in-chief of Marie Claire, whom we got to know when we worked together at Elle, is the very model of a modern magazine editor, in that—unlike the lifers of old—she hopscotched through a ton of jobs, accruing skills as a writer, a fashion editor, a digital editor and a print editor, and, oh yeah, a social-media savvy multi-platform operator—to become what she is now: someone uniquely equipped to lead a new era of Marie Claire.We talked to Nikki about what it's like to run a modern media brand in a post-magazine world—what does the job of “magazine editor” even mean now? Also: how is the post-Hearst Marie Claire evolving to meet a new reader, or should we say “follower,” and which parts of its original DNA Nikki is working to preserve. Also: Is the “girlboss” back?—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

Help us with our Jeffrey Award Winners by voting here: https://forms.gle/GAcHKf5QZrR7GAR79The Month of Jeff continues with another elite Jeff: Jeff Dengate, better known on the internet as @dengatorade. Jeff is the director of product testing and de facto runner in chief at Runner's World, and one of the most experienced shoe and gear testers in the world. He walks me through how Runner's World actually tests shoes with hundreds of wear testers, why some products never make it to a review, and how he personally ends up in well over 100 different pairs of shoes every year.We get into what trust looks like in the age of AI, affiliate links, and endless gear noise, and why having a real human you can bump into at a race still matters. Jeff talks about the changing landscape at Runner's World, the COVID running boom, how trail and ultra fit into the broader running world, and why the world marathon majors craze is exploding. We cover super shoes, sky high prices, why comfort still rules, why you probably do not need a 300 dollar racer to start running, and yes, we revisit my infamous Runner's World Crocs 5K headline. We finish with his case for Jeff of the Year, including BQing three times in a year and rotating through more shoes than most runners log runs.Follow Jeff Dengate: https://www.instagram.com/dengateradeShow supported by Janji.com, Garagegrowngear.com, and CSinstant.coffeeChapters04:00 Introduction to Dengatorade and Running Background06:54 Role at Runner's World and Product Testing09:38 The Art of Product Reviews12:26 Navigating AI in the Running Community15:08 Revenue Streams and Content Creation at Runner's World17:50 Understanding Runner's Needs and Popular Topics20:43 Shoe Testing and Personal Experiences23:25 Finding the Right Shoe for You25:59 The Evolution of Running Gear and Nutrition28:59 Excitement in Running and Gear Unboxing31:42 Jeff's Unique Journey to the NBA37:16 The Journey of a Sports Journalist40:06 Impact of COVID-19 on Running Community43:33 The Growth of Trail and Ultra Running48:20 Trends in the Running IndustrySubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside

On this episode of Compared to Who?, Heather Creekmore sits down for a candid conversation with Nicole Warren Renard, also known as Nicole the Nomad. Nicole’s journey has taken her through pageants, the Miss America stage, social media influence, and even to competing on Next Level Chef with Gordon Ramsay. But beneath the highlight reel, Nicole opens up about the ever-present challenge of comparison—whether it's sizing herself up against others, herself from different seasons of life, or the high-pressure environments of televised competitions and motherhood. What’s Inside: Facing Comparison in High-Pressure Environments: Nicole reflects on feeling like the "least experienced, least qualified" contestant on Next Level Chef, and how self-doubt and comparison can trip us up—even in the most exciting opportunities. Identity and Confidence: Discover how grounding her worth in Christ empowered Nicole to compete in both pageants and cooking shows without letting failure or criticism define her. Comparison in Motherhood: Nicole shares honestly about the struggles of comparing herself to other moms on social media, and even to her pre-mom self. She offers practical ways to keep your heart and mind anchored in truth during big life transitions. Practical Tips for Freedom from Comparison: Breath prayers and staying in constant conversation with God Practicing gratitude to shift focus away from “not enough” Setting healthy boundaries with social media Keeping an eternal perspective during mundane or behind-the-scenes seasons Life Skills and Pageant Myths: Nicole debunks stereotypes about the pageant world, explains how it developed her confidence and skills, and how she focused on the positive outcomes rather than just winning. Holistic Health & Rhythms: Nicole shares the value of consistency and structure in daily routines for mind, body, and soul health. Faith in the Everyday: Learn how Nicole incorporates prayer and scripture into her daily life, even as a busy new mom, modeling an abiding relationship with God for her daughter. Favorite Quotes: “At the end of the day, if all of that was stripped away, nothing I do or don't do changes the fact that I'm a human created with purpose and that I have value that is given to me through Christ.” “I'm quick to give up on myself and say, well, I don’t know what else it could be… And I compare myself to that.” We Talk About: The mental game of competition and why comparison can knock out even the most talented contestants How gratitude can’t coexist with complaining, and practical ways to cultivate a grateful heart Why embracing every season—including the “unseen” work of motherhood—is building an eternal legacy Sponsored by:WeShare Christian Medical Health Sharing — health care designed with your peace of mind.

THE PURPOSE OF TRAVEL—The world is adrift in travel magazines that tell you to go here and stay there, to order certain foods at “of-the-moment” restaurants. And when you go to these places you find yourself surrounded by other travelers like you, and the only locals you interact with are, maybe, the waiter, or your Airbnb host, or the tour guide taking you on a generic definitely-not-what-the-locals-do tour of the trendiest neighborhood in town. Or you might not even meet a local. Or ever stop looking at the screen on your phone.You will have ticked items off your travel bucket list, but will you have actually traveled? Travel becomes consumption and as with all manner of consumption, you are never quite sated, and hey, there's a media ecosystem out there to help you along.And then there's Ori. Founded by journalist Kade Krichko, Ori bills itself as a “travel, art and education platform” that allows local storytellers to tell their stories on a global scale. It is a magazine that understands travel is an experience first and foremost, and that traveling well means an immersion into people and places, an opportunity to grow and to heal.It's a magazine that assumes you should think about and experience the world around you, and that if you think about it and experience it enough, the world becomes a more interconnected and better place; it becomes a place of wonder.And isn't that why we travel?—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

You've been consistent. You've shown up. You've posted episode after episode. And yet… it still feels like your podcast isn't reaching the impact you hoped for.After 300 episodes, I've noticed the patterns that trip up even experienced podcasters: consistency alone doesn't grow your audience, influence your listeners, or monetize your show. In this episode, I'll share shifts that turn effort into results, presence into impact, and a podcast that's just ‘out there' into one that connects, converts, and drives profit.If you're ready to stop releasing episodes just because someone, somewhere said to, you're in the right place. Listen to begin creating episodes that truly grow, influence, and monetize. I'll share practical insights, a few laughs, and a fresh perspective on what's working now in podcasting.Here's something that will never go out of style - good content created for your audience and your business.  Take content creation OFF YOUR PLATE!

PART OF THE STORY—Susan Casey has won National Magazine Awards for editing, writing, and design—a feat that may well be unprecedented in the industry's history.In her native Canada, they call people like this “Wayne Gretzky.”She has worked—under various titles—for the following magazines: The Globe & Mail, Outside, Time, Esquire, eCompany, Business 2.0, Sports Illustrated Women, National Geographic, Fortune, and O, The Oprah Magazine. She also worked for the iconic 1990s fashion brand Esprit. These days—literally on any given day—you're likely to find Casey in the water, where she spent much of her childhood, later with the swim team at the University of Arizona, and, as an adult, as the author of four immersive books—all best sellers—about the ocean: The Wave: In Pursuit of the Rogues, Freaks, and Giants of the Ocean; The Devil's Teeth: A True Story of Obsession and Survival Among America's Great White Sharks; Voices in the Ocean: A Journey Into the Wild and Haunting World of Dolphins; and her most recent, The Underworld: Journeys to the Depths of the Ocean.A self-proclaimed “outspoken designer” early in her career, she refused to accept the career path limits others imposed and instead laid the groundwork for a rich creative life.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.
