It is from our own history, words, images, and worlds can we reshape and reclaim our connection to spirit. With one bead at a time, we can reclaim a time and place before harm entered our ways of life. This becomes the stepping off point for the return of our personal power.Incorporating these hand made beads as her own personal regalia, Tara is on a lifelong journey in the reclamation of her identity to earth and spirit by remembering her indigenous connection and ceremonies.

What's better than Return On Investment when it comes to content & community building?  Return On ‘Involvement'.  It's the sweet spot where Advocacy lives, and the household-name brands know it.  Consider this your guide to getting stuck in – to growing personal, niche, and brand communities through the power of true, caring connection.  This week, welcome Author, TEDx Speaker, LinkedIn Top Voice & Creative Consultant, Jo Bird, to the podcast. Her years building iconic brand identities (ex-Lounge, ex-Gymshark) alongside her own make her expertly placed to advise you here, in conversation with Verity.  By now, it's a fact that the brands that win involve their audiences in their journey. The next frontier of engagement marketing will be co-creating with your community, to tell your brand story. Turn this episode on and up to learn how to… Relinquish Control to Creators – Cautiously: Collaborating with creators of all sizes is key to spreading digital word-of-mouth and Advocacy. Jo warns against blindly handing over control, though. Brands need to be mindful of their intention and ensure creators align with their brand's ‘friendship group', so to speak. Otherwise, you could quickly have the wrong person Advocating for you. The right creators can become invaluable Brand Advocates, but the relationship must be carefully curated. Not Just Follow Trends, But Set Them: Brands that excel don't just follow trends – they're creating them. Experimentation is key here, and taking inspiration from successful brands like Gymshark and Duolingo can help shape a unique strategy. In 2025, this will look like prioritizing co-creation, personal brands, TikTok Lives, and embracing content that fosters a conversational, involved community. Prioritize Advocating With Your Brand, Not For It: A brand must have a clear point of view, and share in it authentically with their community. Asking brand fans to Advocate for your brand, instead of with your brand, is a common mistake. Younger audiences expect brands to take a stance on issues, while allowing them to join in the movements made together. Advocacy is a long-term plan; the only one that ensures brand survival for the next 10-20 years, according to Jo herself. Listen. Learn. Take your brand strategy (personal or commercial) to the next level.  Rate & review Building Brand Advocacy: Apple Podcasts Spotify Connect with Jo: On LinkedIn On Instagram On her Website

Te gast zijn ontwerper Lars Snellaars en Maico Phennickx van Satelliet. In de podcast leggen ze de link tussen interieurontwerp en productdesign. Hoe komt de keuze van meubilair tot stand? Waarom heeft Lars in een aantal projecten de stap genomen om specifiek meubilair te ontwerpen? Lars Snellaars is een ontwerper die het liefst stoelen ontwerpt. Waarom? Omdat het volgens hem een vorm van ‘pure architectuur' is. “Een stoel is één van de moeilijkste dingen, maar daarom ook het mooiste product om te tekenen.” Voor Satelliet ontwierp hij de Circl: een ogenschijnlijk eenvoudig ontwerp, maar laat schijn je niet bedriegen. Maico Pheninckx is Creative Consultant bij Satelliet. Hij is de contactpersoon voor interieurprofessionals bij Satelliet. Satelliet Originals is een merk van Satelliet hospitality furniture en is ontstaan vanuit de behoefte om een Europees meubelmerk met eigenheid te creëren. Het merk staat voor kracht, diversiteit, eigenheid en lef met een touch of hospitality. Met de Originals collectie wil Satelliet een bijdrage leveren aan onderscheidende hospitality interieurs.
