Podcasts about Digital storytelling

Welcome back to the Empower Her Business Accelerator podcast! I'm your host, Phillipa Channer, and this week we're wrapping up our April series all about content pillars. Over the past few weeks, we've defined your content pillars (Episode 174), aligned them with your business goals (Episode 175), and discussed how to create engaging content around them (Episode 176). If you missed any of those, I highly recommend going back—they really set the foundation for today's conversation. Today, we're talking about a natural next step in your content journey: how to evolve your content pillars as your audience and business grow. Because here's the truth—what worked six months ago might not work now. And that's not a problem—it's progress. Your content pillars shouldn't be static. As your audience's needs, interests, and demographics shift—and as your business evolves—your strategy has to evolve, too. This episode is all about recognizing when it's time for a shift, how to do it effectively, and why evolving your content is actually a sign of growth. Let's dig into the key takeaways and steps for making sure your content pillars are always working for you—not holding you back. (01:00) Why Evolution is Key to Content Strategy Your audience isn't staying the same—and your content shouldn't either. Evolving your pillars ensures your brand remains: Relevant by addressing new audience needs Aligned with your business growth and new goals Engaging because you're meeting your audience where they are now, not where they were (02:00) Sign 1: Shifting Audience Demographics Maybe you're attracting a different age group, industry, or business size. ✨ Action Step: Review your analytics regularly to catch shifts early and adjust your pillars to reflect your new audience. (03:00) Sign 2: Industry Trends or Hot Topics Platforms and preferences change. If TikTok's on the rise or your industry shifts toward video, that's a clue. ✨ Action Step: Stay on top of trends and ask yourself how each one could evolve into a new or updated content pillar. (03:40) Sign 3: Changing Business Goals Launching a new product? Adding a service? Your content pillars should follow suit. ✨ Action Step: Revisit your business goals quarterly to ensure your content strategy is pointing in the right direction. (04:20) Sign 4: Audience Feedback and Requests If you're hearing the same questions over and over—it might be time to turn that into a new pillar. ✨ Action Step: Use surveys, polls, or social DMs to gather direct feedback on what your audience wants more of. (05:00) Step 1: Audit Your Existing Content What's performing? What feels outdated? ✨ Action Step: Categorize your content by pillar and review engagement metrics to identify what's thriving and what's fading. (05:40) Step 2: Experiment with New Ideas Test before you invest. You don't have to fully commit right away. ✨ Action Step: Try out 1–2 pieces of content around a potential new theme and watch how your audience reacts. (06:20) Step 3: Let Go of What No Longer Works Sometimes we outgrow content pillars—and that's okay. ✨ Action Step: Slowly reduce content under outdated pillars and reallocate your energy toward new, high-performing ones. (06:50) Step 4: Involve Your Audience in the Process Make it a two-way conversation. Your community will appreciate being part of your evolution. ✨ Action Step: Share BTS content, run polls, or ask them directly what they want to see next. Final Thoughts Evolving your content pillars isn't about reinventing the wheel—it's about refining your message to better connect, serve, and grow. When you take the time to audit, experiment, and listen, your content becomes not just relevant, but powerful. Thanks for joining me throughout our April content pillar series. I hope these episodes help you build a strategy that scales with you. And remember, the Self-Paced EmpowerHer Program is here to support you every step of the way—with expert guidance, templates, and tools that let you work at your own pace. Until next time, keep shining—and let your content grow as you grow.

This podcast invited Dr. Mike Lang and Kristy Wolfe, digital storytelling experts at Common Language Digital Storytelling to reflect on the power of digital storytelling and stigma reduction. Carmen met Mike and Kristy at the First International Digital Storytelling Festival in Greece in 2024 where she was blown away by their powerful stories across the world. Carmen was then a podcast guest on the Common Language Digital Storytelling Podcast Co-Created, hosted by Kristy Wolfe.We discuss the potential power of digital storytelling in both freeing the storyteller from internalized and anticipated stigma, as well as increasing awareness and empathy among people watching and listening. Telling stories matters- they help us to understand, and this deeper understanding of oneself and others can reduce stigma. We talk about stigma spanning a range of issues, HIV, substance use, heart disease, suicide, autism, PTSD- and how both the storyteller and the listener can shift socio-cultural norms and expectations to generate more community support. Digital Storytelling can highlight strengths-based perspectives on coping, ingenuity, hope  and wisdom in the face of challenges. "When we change the questions we ask, we change the answers we get." Learn more about how to meaningfully engage with digital stories from Mike's article.As our podcast guests remind us: "If no-one is willing to tell the story, nothing is ever going to change."

Next in Creator Media spoke with Cristina Lawrence, EVP of Consumer & Content Experience at Razorfish about the march toward more TV-like seasons for many top creators, and whether this is making it easier to move ad dollars over from TV. Lawrence also talked about TikTok's future, who might grab the social commerce mantle, and whether Joe Rogan is a podcaster or a YouTuber.Takeaways:Long-Form Content is Winning the Creator EconomyPlatforms like YouTube are shifting towards structured, episodic content (e.g., video podcasts, multi-part series).Creators are becoming media networks, with brands integrating organically into their content strategies.Creators Are the New Media NetworksInfluencers now function as full-scale media companies, reaching highly engaged audiences.Brands must approach them as partners, not just ad placements.The Rise of Creator-Led Brand PartnershipsMega-creators like MrBeast, Hailey Bieber, and Charli D'Amelio are launching their own DTC (direct-to-consumer) brands.These businesses succeed when they align authentically with the creator's identity.Social Commerce is Gaining Traction, but Still EvolvingPlatforms like TikTok Shops and Amazon Live are making inroads in live shopping.However, U.S. adoption lags behind Asia, where live shopping is deeply integrated into culture.Micro-Influencers & Niche Creators Are EssentialBrands are shifting to micro-influencers for more targeted, authentic engagement.Agencies use AI-powered discovery tools (e.g., Publicis' Influential) to identify high-performing niche creators.The TikTok Uncertainty & the Future of Short-Form VideoIf TikTok were to disappear, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels could fill the gap.However, each platform serves distinct user behaviors, with YouTube favored for long-form content. Guest: Cristina LawrenceHost: Mike ShieldsSponsor: VuePlannerProducer: FEL Creative

This week I'm exploring that question and more with Zenobia Godschalk, Head of Communications at Hedera. Together we explore the critical role storytelling plays in technology and everyday life.

Summary:In the thought-provoking episode "Shadows of Prosperity: Unveiling the Moral Dilemmas of Military Economic Growth Through Fiction," the "ArTEEtude" podcast, under the stewardship of Detlef Schlich, embarks on an innovative exploration of the intricate relationship between military economic growth and its societal ramifications. This episode distinguishes itself by employing a distinctive narrative technique, utilizing fictional characters to delve into the ethical, emotional, and societal complexities that emerge from the prosperity linked to the arms industry.Through the lives of three meticulously crafted personas—Alexej, a conscientious worker in an arms factory; Marina, the resilient spouse of a military official; and Igor, a former military officer turned peace advocate—the episode weaves a compelling narrative that challenges listeners to confront deep-seated moral questions. These characters serve as conduits, each providing unique insights into the personal and collective consequences of a society entrenched in militarization for economic gains.Alexej's narrative opens a window into the personal conflict and moral ambiguity experienced by individuals contributing to the military-industrial complex, juxtaposing financial stability against ethical considerations. Marina's story further humanizes the discourse, presenting the silent sacrifices and the emotional toll on families behind the military facade. Finally, Igor's transformation and advocacy for peace illuminate the potential for change, advocating for dialogue and reconciliation over conflict."Shadows of Prosperity" stands out for its creative approach to discussing a traditionally empirical subject through the lens of fictional storytelling, thereby fostering a deeper understanding and engagement with the topic. The episode skillfully navigates the intersections of art, digital culture, and societal critique, encouraging a reflective and nuanced conversation among its audience. By presenting a balanced discourse through fictional narratives, the podcast invites listeners to examine their own perspectives on the ethics of prosperity through military means and the broader implications for global peace and human dignity.This episode not only contributes to the academic and cultural discourse on the complexities of military economic growth but also exemplifies the power of art and storytelling in stimulating critical thought and empathy. It is a must-listen for academics, students, and anyone interested in the confluence of art, ethics, and society.Keywords: Military Economic Growth, Ethical Dilemmas, Fictional Storytelling, Societal Impact, Art and Culture, Digital Storytelling, Peace Advocacy, Moral Questions, Economic Prosperity, Military-Industrial Complex.Detlef Schlich is a podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognized for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, as well as his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS Detlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

Welcome to the Thursday edition of The Spark Creativity Teacher Podcast, a podcast for English teachers in search of creative teaching strategies. Whether you're new to the show or a long-time listener, I'm so glad you're here for today's edition of “Highly Recommended.” This week, let's talk about some of the best summer PD options out there.  First things first, I've got to tell you about my personal favorite summer PD experience of all time, the one my husband still jokingly refers to as my “smoothie grant.” One summer, my school had money left from its PD budget, and invited teachers to apply for small, simple ways to produce something helpful to their work over the summer with a little bit of funding. I applied for a budget to go get a smoothie each morning in June and sit and read and design curriculum at my favorite beach cafe in Los Angeles for an hour or two. I still remember how fun it was to sit on the balcony after rollerblading the beach at sunrise, listening to the surfers walk by, drinking my apple pie smoothie as I reread the Odyssey and thought about how to rewrite the 9th-grade curriculum. It was the perfect way to add a regular bit of work to my summer and feel like it was fun to do. If your school has a budget for summer PD and what you really want to do is work on curriculum, consider getting creative with a grant like this.  Next on my list I want to mention the National Endowment for the Humanities summer institute series. These cool programs take place all over the United States, giving you a chance to travel to interesting places, dig deep into their culture, and collaborate with colleagues from across the country. This summer they'll have Grand Coulee Dam: The Intersection of Modernity and Indigenous Cultures in Spokane, Freedom Summer: 60 Years Later in Jackson, Shakespeare and Digital Storytelling in Decatur, and quite a few more.  My husband attended one of the institutes on civil rights years back and remembers it as being absolutely outstanding.  I consistently hear from people who have found the National Writer's Project summer workshops extremely impactful, so that's next. If you're interested in diving deep into the teaching of writing, I'd look up your closest National Writing Project site and see what they have on offer. If you're looking for online options, you might explore the on-demand workshops from Facing History & Ourselves, or the free online course available from the National Museum of the American Indian, “edX Course: Foundations for Transforming Teaching and Learning about Native Americans,” or of course, Camp Creative, the summer PD I run each June (topic to be revealed soon!)   Finally, I'll give a quick nod to the Exeter Humanities Institute, a weeklong workshop all about the discussion method, Harkness. I attended this institute after my first year of teaching, following a month-long experiment in each of my classes to use only Harkness as our method of discussion. I learned SO MUCH that week, and it really influenced me as a teacher on a fundamental level. I never used any other discussion method after that, because I just couldn't imagine NOT using Harkness. Look into the method before committing to a week to go deep with it, but if you find it's a good fit at your school, this week of PD will be an incredible boost to your ability to help your students shine through the method.  Of course, self-care, family time, and travel are all also great ways to renew your strength and creativity this summer as well. But if you're looking for a quality PD experience, these are some of my favorite options, so I highly recommend you follow the links in the show notes and check them out!   Go Further:  Explore alllll the Episodes of The Spark Creativity Teacher Podcast.

A family walks into a talent agency, and says, “Have we got the act for you…”If you're familiar with this opening to a joke, you may have had a visceral reaction to it — either you think it's hysterically funny, shamefully disgusting, or both. It's the opening to the joke, The Aristocrats, and if you have a weak stomach, I don't suggest you look it up.See, the point of this joke isn't actually the punchline, which is right in the title. The point is to see how long you can improv a shocking, disgusting, offensive story.You can think about it as a secret handshake among comedians, that became not so secret after a 2005 documentary came out about it.It going me thinking about the importance of telling a story.This week, I got to speak to my friend Nick Benson's college classes about Digital Storytelling.Don't worry, I didn't tell The Aristocrats.Instead, I spoke to them about why storytelling is so important in any content you create, especially podcasting.Read the article here: https://podcastworkflows.com/podcast-storytelling/ Get your free Podcast Process Templates at https://podcastworkflows.com/templates ★ Support this podcast ★

Point Saint-Charles, a historically white working-class neighborhood with a strong Irish and French presence, and Little Burgundy, a multiracial neighborhood that is home to the city's English-speaking Black community, face each other across Montreal's Lachine Canal, once an artery around which work and industry in Montreal were clustered and by which these two communities were formed and divided.  In Deindustrializing Montreal: Entangled Histories of Race, Residence, and Class (McGill-Queen's UP, 2022), Steven High challenges the deepening divergence of class and race analysis by recognizing the intimate relationship between capitalism, class struggles, and racial inequality. Drawing extensive interviews, a massive and varied archive of imagery, and original photography by David Lewis into a complex chorus, Steven High brings the two communities to life, tracing their history from their earliest years to their decline and their current reality. He extends the analysis of deindustrialization, often focused on single-industry towns, to cities that have seemingly made the post-industrial transition. Steven High is an interdisciplinary oral and public historian with a strong interest in transnational approaches to working-class studies, forced migration, community-engaged research, oral history methodology and ethics, and living archives. He is a professor of History and founding member of the Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling at Concordia University. Yadong Li is a PhD student in anthropology at Tulane University. His research interests lie at the intersection of the anthropology of state, the anthropology of time, hope studies, and post-structuralist philosophy.
