In 2013, Gregg Renfrew founded Beautycounter—the beauty brand that pioneered what we know today as the clean beauty movement. The brand gained a well-respected reputation for its commitment to using safe ingredients in its products and for refusing to include any formulas that contained questionable or harmful chemicals. Renfrew's commitment to customer health and her advocacy for cosmetic regulation set her apart from her competitors at a time when clean beauty was just an idea, not an entire industry. She last joined us in 2019, before the company's sale to a private equity firm in a deal that valued the brand at $1 billion. Since then, she's had to make several pivots—from being asked to step down as CEO to leaving her own company to watching it go into foreclosure. Her latest pivot has involved starting a new company with the same commitment to clean beauty called Counter, and she's back to tell us all about the new venture.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We begin this episode discussing movies, and One Battle after Another specifically, which leads to the topic of the hottest new Hollywood actress (who just happens to be an AI creation). We tackle the issue of the recent comedy festival in Riyadh and whether those who attended have sold out and compromised their western values for a paycheck. We turn our attention to the new “violence entrepreneurs” and to the social media factors that create such a thirst for such political violence.

Quand on pense au luxe français, certaines maisons incarnent à elles seules un mélange rare : indépendance, transmission familiale et capacité à se réinventer sans jamais perdre leur âme. Longchamp en fait partie.Pour la première fois dans ce podcast, j'ai choisi de donner la parole à 2 voix : Jean Cassegrain, président de Longchamp à l'échelle mondiale, et son fils Hector Cassegrain, directeur France.Dans cet échange, on a parlé de ce qui fait la singularité d'une maison familiale devenue une icône du luxe. Comment transmettre un héritage sans jamais le figer ? Comment préserver une identité forte tout en osant la réinventer ? Comment transformer une boutique en véritable lieu d'expérience ? Et bien sûr, comment un sac comme le Pliage peut devenir à la fois un symbole de continuité et d'audace.Mais au-delà de ces questions de stratégie, Jean et Hector se livrent avec une sincérité rare : sur leurs valeurs, leur attachement profond à la France, leur rapport au temps long… et ce que cela implique, très concrètement, de travailler en famille.C'est une plongée unique dans les coulisses d'une maison que j'admire profondément, et dont l'histoire résonne bien au-delà du monde du luxe.Bonne écoute !Notes et références de l'épisode :

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery As we head into the final quarter of 2025, I can't help but reflect on how quickly this year has passed. For some it has been a year of breakthroughs, for others a season of struggle, and for many it has been the same repeated cycle with no real progress. I know that space well because I spent years stuck there, constantly comparing myself to others, replaying the same broken record of frustration and disappointment. What I learned is that when you remain in that weakened state and do nothing, it always makes things worse. There is no positive outcome that comes from inaction. It took me years of turmoil, fights at home, depression, and setbacks before I finally said enough was enough. I had to let go of arrogance, become a student, and follow a proven model with absolute discipline. That model taught me to take care of my body, grow my mind, and improve my business every single day. Eleven years later, that same discipline has carried me through highs and lows, created stability, and given me the responsibility to teach others to do the same. Last week, I interviewed one of our top producers, Felipe. His story hit hard. His mother in law is battling a terminal illness, and his family is carrying that weight every single day. Yet he continues to show up, smiling, working, and leading his family. He's able to remain strong because he follows the same model he built in times of peace. He makes his power deposits, his purpose deposits, and his profit deposits, even in the middle of heartbreak. That discipline allows him to stay strong when most would break. And that is the lesson. Discipline is what steadies you when the storms of life hit. Without it, you ride an emotional roller coaster that everyone around you feels your family, your clients, even strangers on Instagram. But with discipline, you create stability. You show up the same way whether life is good or life is breaking apart. You keep moving forward regardless of fear, anger, or doubt. I've lived this through every season of my business and my life: from financial ruin, to injuries, to losing agents, to being told the company wouldn't survive. And each time, I kept showing up, making my deposits, holding to the model. You wouldn't know my fear or my doubt because I refused to let it dictate my actions. That is what built this company, that is what built my family, and that is what continues to build my life today. So as we close this year, ask yourself: are you operating from feelings, or are you following a standard? Are you making deposits every day, or are you hoping that things just work out? Because without discipline, you don't stand a chance. With it, you create a foundation that allows you to not only survive but thrive no matter what comes your way. Reader Engagement Questions Where in your life do you need to raise your standard so discipline guides you instead of feelings? How do your family, clients, and peers experience you when things fall apart do they see strength or instability? What daily deposits can you commit to right now that will keep you steady through both success and hardship? Notable Quotes “If you are in a weakened position and you do nothing, it makes things worse. There is no positive that could come out of that.” “Discipline allows you to remain strong in moments of tragedy, in moments of weakness, in moments of doubt and fear but you wouldn't know.” “Regardless of where I am in life, I show up the very same way day in and day out. But again, you wouldn't know.” Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.

It's raining, it's pouring, what vital business intelligence are you ignoring? The next explosive area of business opportunity and risk may well be weather forecasting.  The opportunity will accrue to those owners and entrepreneurs who understand that a new era of meteorology has dawned and view weather forecasting as an inextricable form of business intelligence. The risk is that myopic executives may cling to the mistaken notion that weather forecasts — “notoriously inaccurate” — are only about what to wear, how the morning commute might be impacted, and if they should bring along an umbrella when the go outside. In his new book, Cloud Warriors: Deadly Storms, Climate Chaos―and the Pioneers Creating a Revolution in Weather Forecasting, veteran journalist Thomas E. “Tom” Weber debunks two prevalent myths: 1.) That weather forecasts are frequently way off, and 2.) That the weather doesn't have an impact on almost every company, directly or indirectly. Tom is the former executive editor at TIME who oversaw the magazine's cover stories and feature journalism. Earlier in his career, he served as a technology reporter, columnist, and bureau chief at The Wall Street Journal. Powered by artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the internet of things, weather forecasting — even micro forecasts confined to small geographic areas — has become vastly more accurate. Importantly, better forecasting saves lives by correctly predicting threatening hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, and floods well in advance and preventing catastrophic damage to vital infrastructure. Savvy companies — big and small — are already investing in weather intelligence, and the imperative for those who have yet to get on board will only grow in the years ahead.

This week on the GeekWire Podcast: How artificial intelligence is changing the way companies are created, built, and operated. We're on location at Pioneer Square Labs in Seattle with investor and entrepreneur T.A. McCann, a managing director at the startup studio and venture capital firm.

As AI makes product development easier, he says, the key strategic moat for many startups is now shifting to distribution and data. Other topics include: The wearable AI recorder that captures everything he says throughout the day. The rise of the "one-person billion-dollar company" powered by a suite of specialized AI agents. How AI-generated personas are replacing human focus groups for market research. The future of "agent-to-agent" conversations, where different AI systems negotiate with each other on behalf of their companies.
