While some founders focus on financial returns, the most effective campaigns connect with investors through powerful, resonant narratives. Dawson Russell, CEO and Co-Founder of RaiseLaunch, has mastered this craft, helping clients raise millions by making their stories irresistible.Dawson explains that campaigns often fail because their story doesn't resonate with potential investors. "If they can't resonate with it, they're not going to invest," he says. For him, it's about taking a founder's vision and shaping it into messaging that makes an investor think, I believe in what you're doing. I want to be a part of that.His work on the Boxable campaign illustrates the power of this approach. Boxable, a company revolutionizing housing affordability, raised over $150 million in part thanks to a compelling AI-driven video ad Dawson's team created in less than 24 hours. By harnessing AI tools like Google Veo 3, 11 Labs, and Suno, he demonstrated that great storytelling doesn't require massive budgets—it requires creativity, clarity, and emotional connection.In today's episode, Dawson revealed a shift in investor priorities he's witnessed since moving from traditional accredited-investor fundraising to Regulation CF and Regulation A offerings. Many crowdfunding investors care less about immediate financial returns and more about supporting a vision they believe in. They want to join a movement, not just fund a company.For founders, the lesson is clear: numbers matter, but stories move people to act. Whether you hire a firm like RaiseLaunch or DIY with affordable AI tools, invest in crafting a story that makes investors feel they're contributing to something bigger than themselves.Dawson's results prove that a well-told story can turn even modest campaigns into runaway successes. For anyone considering a regulated investment crowdfunding raise, his example offers a blueprint for winning hearts, minds, and capital.tl;dr:Dawson Russell shares how compelling storytelling drives successful regulated crowdfunding campaigns, winning investor support through emotional connection.He explains that many crowdfunding investors value vision and impact more than immediate financial returns.Dawson details creating Boxable's AI-powered ad in under 24 hours, demonstrating cost-effective, high-quality content production.He reveals his superpower of recognizing strengths, focusing RaiseLaunch on storytelling and go-to-market strategy.Dawson offers advice on leveraging strengths, delegating weaknesses, and aligning work with values to achieve lasting impact.How to Develop Recognizing Strengths As a SuperpowerDawson described his superpower as the ability to recognize strengths—both his own and those of his team. "You've got to recognize what are your strengths and what are your weaknesses and surround people around you that can help," he said. For Dawson, this focus has meant honing in on storytelling and creative strategy for crowdfunding campaigns, rather than trying to "do everything." This clarity has allowed RaiseLaunch to excel by working only on projects that are a strong cultural and skill fit.Illustrative Story: Several years ago, Dawson realized his agency was stretched too thin, taking on all types of projects. The lack of focus led to unsatisfying work and dropped commitments. The turning point came when he decided to narrow RaiseLaunch's offerings to their strongest capabilities—storytelling and go-to-market strategy for regulated crowdfunding. This shift not only improved client satisfaction but also fueled the company's growth. The same strength in recognizing trends led him to adopt AI tools early, helping clients like Boxable create high-impact campaigns quickly and affordably.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Regularly evaluate your own strengths and weaknesses with honestyDelegate or outsource tasks that fall outside your top skillsLook for patterns of success in your past work to identify focus areasStay ahead of trends in your industry to align your strengths with future opportunitiesWork only with clients, partners, or projects that align with your values and cultureBy following Dawson's example and advice, you can make recognizing strengths a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Her innovative company is tackling the global issue of plastic waste with its unique toothpaste tablets, offering a game-changing alternative to traditional toothpaste packaged in plastic tubes.Kaylaan's toothpaste tablets are designed for simplicity and sustainability. “All you do is crunch it. Your saliva does the magic, and you just brush your teeth how you normally would,” Deepti explained. These tablets, made with clean ingredients, generate zero waste and do not require water for activation. They are an eco-friendly solution for environmentally conscious consumers.The journey to bring this product to market has been filled with challenges. Kaylaan is the first company in the United States to manufacture toothpaste tablets with fluoride, a key component for oral health. “We are the only company in the U.S. that manufactures toothpaste tablets with fluoride,” Deepti shared. Achieving this milestone involved navigating a complex FDA approval process, adopting good manufacturing practices (GMP), and undergoing rigorous testing.Deepti highlighted the financial hurdles her company has faced, particularly the annual FDA fees required for over-the-counter products with fluoride. “This year, we got a bill for $25,000 in FDA fees, and we know it will keep increasing. But we didn't stop,” she said, underscoring her determination to succeed.Kaylaan's product lineup includes several flavors tailored to different preferences, from mint to kid-friendly strawberry and watermelon, as well as neem, a nod to Deepti's Himalayan roots. The company recently expanded its offerings with mouthwash tablets, further advancing its mission to eliminate plastic waste.To scale its operations sustainably, Kaylaan is currently raising funds through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Honeycomb Credit. Deepti views this community-driven approach as a way to grow without compromising the company's values. “We wanted to give back to our community and use the funds wisely to grow consistently,” she explained.Kaylaan is more than just a business—it represents a movement to rethink oral care and reduce the environmental footprint of daily routines. Deepti's vision and perseverance serve as an inspiring example of how innovative thinking can create impactful change.tl;dr:Kaylaan founder Deepti Brambl explains how plastic-free toothpaste tablets tackle waste and promote sustainability.Deepti shares challenges of FDA compliance and GMP certification as a small, self-funded startup.Kaylaan's innovative products include fluoride and non-fluoride options in five unique flavors.Deepti discusses raising capital via a regulated crowdfunding campaign to scale operations sustainably.Persistence and embracing failure are key to Deepti's success as a purpose-driven entrepreneur.How to Develop Persistence As a SuperpowerDeepti Brambl's superpower is persistence—a relentless determination to overcome challenges and achieve her goals. As she explained, “If I'm laser-focused and want to achieve something, that is something I would say is my superpower.” Deepti highlighted the role of failure in her journey, noting, “The superpower is failing a lot because that's where the real growth happens.” Her ability to embrace failure and keep moving forward has been key to her success as an entrepreneur.Illustrative Story:When Kaylaan faced an FDA audit, Deepti discovered the company wasn't fully compliant and received a 485 letter. This setback led Amazon to delist their products, forcing Kaylaan to pause operations temporarily. Instead of giving up, Deepti used the audit as a learning opportunity, hiring consultants and implementing rigorous compliance processes. The experience not only ensured full FDA compliance but also set Kaylaan on a path for long-term success.Tips for Developing Persistence:Embrace failure as an opportunity to learn and grow.Allow yourself time to process setbacks before tackling problems with a fresh perspective.Seek help and guidance from others when faced with challenges.Focus on long-term goals rather than immediate obstacles.Adopt the mindset that every problem has a solution.By following Deepti's example and advice, you can make persistence a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

The challenges they face extend beyond scaling a business or managing operations; they wrestle with the pressure of delivering meaningful social change while also keeping a wary eye on their bottom line.That's why Caroline Diehl MBE, Founder and CEO of Social Founders, has dedicated herself to supporting the well-being of the people behind these organizations. She's not focused on the nuts and bolts of business planning or marketing. Instead, Caroline is building a global network that supports founders themselves, giving them a space to connect, decompress and recharge.As Caroline explained on today's episode, “It's amazing how some of the most experienced and brilliant social founders in our network still say that they feel lonely. They feel that they can't talk really openly to their board or to their management team. They can't constantly dump on their partner back at home. And they love the idea of connecting with other founders.”She's quick to note that the ecosystem for social impact founders doesn't match what's available to tech founders. “If you're a tech founder, you're on to a good thing. But if you're a charity founder or a social entrepreneur, it's pretty tough. And there's not much support for the actual founder.”Caroline's approach is all about founder well-being. Social Founders doesn't duplicate what others do. Instead, they partner with organizations offering practical business help, like the UK's School for Social Entrepreneurs, while focusing on the founder's mental and emotional health. “We're there for the well-being of the founder, which in turn helps that founder be a better founder,” Caroline said.The double bottom line—delivering both social impact and financial sustainability—adds another layer of complexity. Caroline captured this tension: “Sometimes you can create more social impact without having to focus on the money all the time and vice versa. If you're focusing on the money all the time, then you end up just maybe selling lots of mugs or stickers or something and not doing enough social impact.”Changemakers need not go it alone. Social Founders offers a global community, recognizing the value of peer support and connection. If you're building a social enterprise or founding a charity, consider joining the movement at socialfounder.org. You'll find a group of like-minded leaders who understand your challenges—and a network designed to help you thrive.tl;dr:Caroline Diehl MBE founded Social Founders to support the well-being of social enterprise and charity founders.She highlights the loneliness and unique pressures founders face, especially balancing impact and financial sustainability.Caroline emphasizes building networks over business advice, prioritizing emotional and peer support for changemakers.Her superpower, positive energy, has fueled her success and resilience across multiple impactful organizations.Listeners are invited to join Social Founders' global network for community, inspiration and support.How to Develop Positive Energy As a SuperpowerCaroline described her superpower as “positive energy.” She explained, “Whoever I'm talking to, whether I'm meeting some grand poobah running some big company or the people that I really love who are the grassroots founders and changemakers, or whether I'm just on my own… I can call on a superpower inside me of positive energy and make that happen.” Even during difficult times, when doubt creeps in, Caroline channels this positive energy to keep moving forward, whether she's running marathons or building impactful organizations.Illustrative Story:After founding the Media Trust and Together TV, Caroline started Social Founders from scratch, with no investment capital and little personal financial security. She had to convince funders, opinion leaders and founders from diverse backgrounds to join her network. Despite being “not young anymore,” she relied on her positive energy to inspire and mobilize others. Caroline shared that much of her energy comes from the people she meets—like a renowned Japanese dancer who supports people with learning difficulties through dance, or a young entrepreneur in Japan helping formerly incarcerated youth start businesses. These encounters continually fuel her own drive.Actionable Tips for Developing Positive Energy:Focus on your love for your mission and your passionate belief in the change you want to make.Keep reminders—like sticky notes with meaningful messages—visible in your workspace.Connect regularly with the people you aim to help; their stories can renew your motivation.When energy is low, spend time outdoors: go for a walk, bike ride or simply get fresh air.By following Caroline's example and advice, you can make positive energy a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

After a pullback following the 2021 peak, this year's upswing is breathing new life into opportunities for both entrepreneurs and investors.Brian Belley, Vice President of Product at Kingscrowd, shared insights on this trend during this episode of the “Superpowers for Good” show. He highlighted the resilience of the market, noting, “The numbers were actually very encouraging for this year. So over the first six months, over the first half of the year, there was $450 million committed to these campaigns that are being done online to these offerings.”Despite economic uncertainty and public market volatility earlier this year, investors continued to support small businesses and startups. As Belley explained, “We actually raised $450 million in spite of all of that that was going on.” Beyond the investment totals, this capital is fueling job creation and economic activity across communities.Both Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) are seeing significant participation. Regulation A campaigns attracted $250 million, while Reg CF brought in $200 million—up 9% from last year. Belley pointed out, “In the case of Regulation A, that even exceeded the first six months even going back to 2021,” signaling the historic nature of this year's growth.One reason for Reg CF's continued appeal is its accessibility, with minimum investments as low as $50 or $100. Belley said, “The average investment size, check size, as we refer to it, does tend to be in that $1,000 to $1,200 range... there are some bigger investors out there as well who are investing in these companies.” This democratization of investing is helping more people participate in early-stage ventures.Recent successful offerings, such as the Newsmax Reg A+ campaign that raised $75 million, show how large brands can leverage their audiences to achieve record-breaking results. Such campaigns also demonstrate how regulated crowdfunding can bridge the gap between private and public markets, sometimes allowing shares to become tradable soon after the raise.Kingscrowd's projections suggest that the sector could reach $900 million by year's end, potentially rivaling or even surpassing the 2021 record. For founders seeking capital and investors seeking opportunities, the data points to a robust and promising period for regulated investment crowdfunding.For those interested in learning more, Belley's latest report is available at s4g.biz/king or kingscrowd.com, offering data, insights, and tools to help navigate this dynamic market.tl;dr:The episode highlights a renewed surge in regulated investment crowdfunding, with $450 million raised early in 2025.Brian Belley of Kingscrowd shares data and trends, showing growth in both Reg A and Reg CF offerings.Reg CF's accessibility empowers everyday investors and helps democratize early-stage investment opportunities.The Newsmax Reg A+ campaign illustrates how major brands can achieve record-breaking success through pre-IPO crowdfunding.The episode closes with practical advice for founders and investors to benefit from the evolving crowdfunding landscape.The Newsmax offering stands out as a prime example of pre-IPO crowdfunding. As Brian Belley explained, “Something very unique with the Newsmax offering is this ability where it was kind of this pre-IPO offering, where the shares that were purchased were essentially then kind of uplisted. They were listed on a public exchange after the Reg A offering, and they then became tradable.” This structure enabled investors not only to back a familiar media brand but also to access liquidity by trading their shares soon after the campaign, a feature rarely seen in traditional crowdfunding.The Newsmax Reg A+ campaign showcased how a company can leverage its established audience to fuel a record-breaking raise. With a large, engaged base, Newsmax was able to reach supporters eager for both financial returns and a chance to connect with the brand's mission. After the campaign, the shares became tradable on a public exchange, and early trading saw the stock price soar, providing some investors with significant short-term gains before stabilizing. This example demonstrates how regulated crowdfunding can bridge private capital raising and public market liquidity, offering tangible rewards and flexibility to investors.Build and engage a strong community or audience before launching any campaignLeverage brand recognition and trust to attract committed investorsStructure offerings with potential paths to liquidity, such as post-raise public tradingWork with experienced platforms and broker-dealers to maximize reach and regulatory complianceCommunicate risks and rewards transparently to set realistic investor expectationsGuest ProfileBrian Belley (he/him):Vice President, Product, KingscrowdAbout Kingscrowd: Kingscrowd is a team of financiers, venture capitalists, technologists, founders, and experts on a mission to democratize private market investing.

Diana Tucker, CEO of SenoGuard, is leading the charge with an innovative alternative to post-lumpectomy radiation. Using advanced cryoablation technology, SenoGuard freezes the cavity where a tumor is removed, eliminating residual cancer cells in one procedure.Radiation has been the standard of care for decades, but it comes with significant physical, emotional, and financial costs. Diana explained in today's episode, “Radiation is horrible both clinically and cosmetically. It changes the shape, size, and feel of the breast. Many women face long-term emotional and physical side effects.” She shared the tragic story of a young breast cancer survivor whose radiation treatment ultimately damaged her heart. “I am very passionate about eliminating radiation if at all possible,” she said.SenoGuard's approach simplifies treatment. “The patient goes in for her tumor excision, and immediately we freeze the cavity where the tumor has been removed,” Diana said. “It's one and done. The patient can go back to work the very next day.” This innovation not only reduces the physical toll on patients but also addresses significant disparities in access to care. Many women forego lumpectomies because daily radiation sessions are unaffordable or inaccessible, especially in rural areas. Diana noted, “Almost 30% of women who qualify for a lumpectomy choose mastectomy instead because they can't afford the time or cost of radiation.”To bring this groundbreaking technology to market, SenoGuard is raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder. Diana emphasized the importance of public support, saying, “Everybody knows someone who has had breast cancer. By investing, people feel they are not just supporting a cause but making a difference for society.”SenoGuard's cryoablation technology has the potential to transform breast cancer treatment, making it less toxic, more accessible, and kinder to patients. By supporting their crowdfunding campaign, you could help bring this life-changing innovation to millions of women.tl;dr:Diana Tucker shared how SenoGuard's cryoablation technology eliminates the need for post-lumpectomy radiation.Radiation's side effects often force women to choose mastectomies, highlighting the need for better options.SenoGuard's innovation reduces treatment time, costs, and disparities in accessing breast cancer care.Diana described her relentless passion and how it drives her to overcome challenges in her work.SenoGuard is raising funds via a WeFunder campaign to bring this life-changing technology to market.How to Develop Relentless Passion As a SuperpowerDiana Tucker's superpower is her relentless passion for solving problems she truly believes in. As she explained in today's episode, “When I have a sincere understanding, I become very passionate, enthusiastic, and relentless to get that…across the finish line.” Her superpower drives her to tackle challenges with unwavering determination, especially when the stakes are high.Story Illustrating SuperpowerDiana shared a story from her early career, where she was tasked with bringing a French ophthalmology solution to the U.S. market. “The CEO told me, ‘If you can figure out how to bring this over to America, you have a job. If you can't, you're fired.'” Fueled by determination, she successfully introduced the technology, which became the standard of care. Years later, an ophthalmologist recognized her contribution with heartfelt gratitude, highlighting the profound and lasting impact of her work.Tips for Developing the SuperpowerFind Your Passion: Identify problems that deeply resonate with you to fuel your enthusiasm and drive.Share Your Vision: Build a team by inspiring others with your passion and clear vision.Never Give Up: When faced with roadblocks, find creative workarounds to keep moving forward.Believe in Yourself: Confidence in your abilities is key to overcoming challenges and achieving your goals.By following Diana's example and advice, you can make relentless passion a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileDiana Tucker (she/her):CEO, SenoGuardAbout SenoGuard: SenoGuard is pioneering a transformative approach to breast cancer treatment by offering a radiation-free alternative following lumpectomy. Our innovative technology uses advanced cryoablation--freezing residual cancer cells during surgery--to eliminate the need for weeks of post-op radiation.This method significantly reduces patient burden, especially for the 28% who face barriers like distance, cost, or time constraints.Supported by National Science Foundation grants, SenoGuard's solution is designed to be accessible in community hospitals, expanding treatment options globally. Led by a seasoned team with over a century of combined experience in women's healthcare, SenoGuard is committed to enhancing patient outcomes and accessibility.Website: SenoGuard.comCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/senoguardOther URL: wefunder.com/senoguardincBiographical Information: Diana Tucker is a strategic marketing executive with a distinguished track record in launching and growing innovative, paradigm-shifting medical technologies.

Growing up addicted to chocolate milk, Jo eventually realized that her favorite treat wasn't as healthy as she'd imagined. “It was a sad day when I started to read labels and realized, oof, I just cannot be drinking this anymore,” she shared in today's episode.As Jo searched for a healthier alternative, she found herself frustrated by disappointing options. Either the products didn't taste good, or they were full of fillers and oils. When the pandemic hit and life slowed down, Jo seized the opportunity to experiment. Using her Vitamix and pantry staples like cashews, cocoa powder, and agave syrup, she crafted a homemade chocolate milk that surprised her with its deliciousness. “I hit blend, poured it in a cup, tried it and was like, wait, what? This is actually really good,” Jo said.That spark of inspiration soon became Nutcase, a company producing healthier chocolate milk with cashews as the creamy, nutrient-rich base. But Jo wasn't content with just making something for herself or her local community. “I'm a big dreamer,” she said. “As soon as I realized there was a product here, I started thinking about how to scale it globally.”Jo tested the waters by bottling her creation and selling it in her restaurant, where it quickly flew off the shelves. That validation pushed her to solve the next challenge: extending the product's shelf life for large-scale distribution. Through persistence and a network of connections, Jo found experts who helped her refine the formulation and production process.Now, Nutcase is on the verge of becoming a global brand, and Jo is inviting others to join her journey. With a regulated crowdfunding campaign currently open, anyone can invest in Nutcase and own a piece of the company. “Having everyday people, super fans, and supporters have skin in the game was a no-brainer for me,” Jo said.Her passion for creating a healthier, better-tasting chocolate milk is undeniable, but her vision for building an inclusive, community-backed brand is just as inspiring. Don't miss your chance to be part of this delicious revolution.tl;dr:Jo Weinand founded Nutcase to create healthier, cashew-based chocolate milk that tastes amazing.A pandemic experiment with cashews, cocoa, and agave led to a surprisingly successful formula.Jo scaled Nutcase from a local product to a global brand with strategic networking and persistence.Celebrities and influencers, including Steve Aoki and Ninja, joined Nutcase as partners and advocates.Through equity crowdfunding, Jo invites supporters to invest in Nutcase and join the mission.How to Develop Uniting People As a SuperpowerJo's ability to unite people around a common mission is her defining strength. She explained, “As a founder, the best thing ever is building a team...of big celebrities and influencers, but also giving opportunities to people who are such hard workers and hustlers.” Jo's talent for inspiring enthusiasm and aligning others with her vision has been instrumental in turning Nutcase into more than just a business—it's a movement.When Jo launched Nutcase's strawberry flavor, she saw an opportunity to approach Steve Aoki, who initially wasn't a fan of chocolate milk. Upon trying the strawberry variety, he became so excited about the product and its brain-health benefits, he not only joined as a partner but also introduced Nutcase to his foundation to support brain health initiatives. Jo's ability to bring people together with shared values has helped Nutcase grow in unexpected, meaningful ways.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Share your passion authentically to inspire others.Don't be afraid to ask for help or make connections.Build a team with people who are aligned with your mission.Lean into your uniqueness—be bold and embrace being different.Final Paragraph:By following Jo's example and advice, you can make uniting people a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Lisa Marino, Founder and CEO of Dopple, has made it her mission to simplify the process.Lisa's personal experience navigating the welfare system while earning her MBA at Stanford inspired her to create Dopple. She explained, “We built for others what we did for ourselves to get our own family through.” Her platform connects families to an array of funding sources—government benefits, philanthropic programs, and contributions from friends and family—by streamlining the process into a simple, AI-driven solution.In today's episode, Lisa highlighted a staggering statistic: “40% of families eligible for SNAP are so overwhelmed by the application process that many just drop out.” She's determined to eliminate this friction, helping families secure critical funding for essentials like childcare, diapers, and even college savings.Dopple's approach begins with a 12-month budget, encouraging families to think comprehensively about their needs. The platform then leverages AI to match families with available resources and funding opportunities. Lisa shared, “We've taken this budget that maybe started at $25,000 and start whacking away at it… shifting $20,000 plus from being out of pocket to the family to the village that wants to support them.”Dopple's innovative model also addresses the philanthropic side. By fractionalizing gifting, Dopple enables friends, family, and organizations to contribute directly to a family's needs. Additionally, the company generates revenue through subscription-based kids' clothing and essential products like diapers and formula.Lisa's commitment to making a difference extends beyond her platform's services. Dopple is currently raising funds on Wefunder, inviting everyday individuals to invest in the company's vision. Lisa explained, “I believe in being egalitarian… If we're trying to help families fund the basics, we need to walk the walk.”By tackling the bureaucratic hurdles that prevent families from accessing critical support, Lisa and Dopple are making an extraordinary impact. Learn more about their mission and investment opportunity at thedopple.com/invest.tl;dr:Lisa Marino, CEO of Dopple, shares her journey navigating welfare systems during her MBA at Stanford.Dopple simplifies access to critical benefits, combining AI and a comprehensive family budgeting platform.The platform connects families to funding sources, reducing out-of-pocket expenses by leveraging their community.Lisa emphasizes Dopple's egalitarian approach, inviting individuals to invest via a Wefunder campaign.Her superpower, refusing to give up, drives her to tackle challenges with persistence and grit.How to Develop Refusing to Give Up As a SuperpowerLisa Marino's superpower is her unrelenting tenacity to overcome obstacles. She described it simply: “The hard part was sitting down and figuring it out.” Whether navigating complex welfare systems during her pregnancy or guiding her company through challenges, Lisa defines success as persistence. As she told her kids, “People who put on the big kid pants clean it up… and move forward.”Lisa's determination was tested during her time as CEO of Rocky. She inherited a company with a $400 million preference stack and declining revenue. Despite being advised against taking the role, she worked tirelessly to restructure the business, rebuild profitability, and grow through acquisitions. Years of difficult conversations and strategic moves eventually led to success—an exemplary display of perseverance.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Set Realistic Expectations: Focus on achieving small wins, even when faced with overwhelming challenges.Embrace the Grind: Accept that progress takes time and effort, and remain committed to the vision.Allow Yourself Breaks: Give yourself permission to recharge when needed, such as Lisa's “quarterly pity party.”Take Control: Address challenges proactively rather than waiting for them to escalate.By following Lisa's example and advice, you can make refusing to give up a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileLisa Marino (she/her):Founder and CEO, DoppleAbout Dopple: Two thirds of all families live paycheck to paycheck yet billions of federal and philanthropic dollars earmarked for these families go unused each year. The system is opaque, inefficient, and requires an advanced degree to navigate. I know this because at one point, before I became a successful operator, I was forced to navigate it for my family. Dopple is the platform to bring transparency and efficiency to the flow of funds in this market. We are the qualification engine and payment rails in the middle. Dopple launches in July in New Jersey, and I am looking for a famly foundation with an aligned vision to be a design and beta partner with us. Use of funds will be to cover needs such as diapers, childcare and tuition for mid to low income families in NJ.Website: thedopple.comCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/thedoppleOther URL: thedopple.com/investBiographical Information: - First person in my immigrant Mexican family to go to college, which I paid for myself.

Have you ever wondered how a simple act of gift-giving could evolve into a movement of sustainable community support? Join us for a heartfelt conversation with Lisa Marino, the visionary CEO and founder of Dopple Registry, who turned her struggles during financial hardship into a platform that redefines how families receive essential services. We discuss Lisa's groundbreaking approach to gifting, shifting from traditional one-time presents to an inclusive system that emphasizes the power of community, allowing budget-constrained friends and family to contribute towards much-needed recurring necessities like childcare and therapy sessions. Lisa candidly shares how her personal journey, enriched by her background in tech mergers and acquisitions, drove her to innovate in this $100 billion market, aiming to transform life milestones into meaningful, collective experiences. Embark on a journey with Lisa as she shares her insights on raising independent children and the emotional transition to becoming an empty nester. Experience how her past challenges, including a divorce and discovering passions like snowboarding, fuel her commitment to leaving a lasting legacy that supports lower and middle-income households. Lisa's story is not just about business innovation but also about personal growth and the drive to make a difference. Her work with Dopple reflects a mission to connect families with vital resources and support networks. This episode is a tribute to the power of community, personal resilience, and the profound impact of meaningful work.

How badly do we all need to expand our type vocabulary‽ This episode starts with Skeleton fonts, a typeface that brings the glom, creative pixelation, and the Goofus and Gallant of font releases, and then the guys rank the definitive* list of type words, phrases, and concepts that everyone should know. Josh just won't let you forget about Blackletter fonts and Kyle is all about those ligatures, but it turns out you probably won't impress people by being able to tell the difference between a dash and a hyphen. And then the 90s came around (heavy sigh)...*Absolutely not definitiveSupport the Words of Type Kickstarter here!Font releases highlighted in this episode:FT Lambert from FrosTypeRoutine from Blaze Type Kyoshi from Alanna Munro Lardent and Dopple from Colophon FoundrySupport the Interrogang and help us expand what Proof&Co. and the Interrogang have to offer!Subscribe to TypeCraft, our sister podcast, for hour long interviews and visual companions from some of the industry leaders in type!Subscribe to the Weekly Newsletter or The Concierge Newsletter for all the independent type news that's fit to email!Get your 2022 Annual Report and Almanac, our data-driven look at the world of independent typography in 2022!Support the show

Caroline & Scott (Dopple B) by Live 95.5
Workplace burnout and quiet quitting have become major concerns for companies of all scales. Employers across the nation are seeking solutions to remedy these issues as they navigate the modern challenges that arise with remote and hybrid business models. An innovative 3D product experience startup took the risk of offering its entire team unlimited PTO to prevent these complications–and the results have been positive. Dopple employs a number of 3D artists and uses Augmented Reality (AR) to offer clients product visualization services, so they can sustainably alter and scale product designs online. The technology helps companies track inventory, leverage assets and create interactive product experiences for consumers. In this episode of Of Note, VP of Product Development, James Townsend joins our hosts Joseph Nother and Kim Christ to share his unique approach to 3D visualization and leadership. James combines the narrative of eCommerce and company culture to explain how his brand maintains passion for their product and the momentum to keep up with the rapidly evolving industry. He reveals how Dopple keeps their innovative product ahead of the competition and relevant to the market, and ways the brand maintains its forward-thinking mindset. To learn his key practices for creating a contemporary, flexible, inclusive work culture, listen now.
