Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we're delving into a series of groundbreaking advancements and strategic movements reshaping the landscape of drug development and patient care. Eli Lilly's retatrutide has emerged as a significant breakthrough in obesity treatment, demonstrating a remarkable 30.3% weight reduction over two years in a Phase 3 trial. This drug, a triple agonist targeting glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors, regulates appetite and energy balance effectively. Such results not only highlight its potential as a transformative therapy for obesity but also position Eli Lilly prominently within metabolic disorder treatment landscapes. With global obesity rates on the rise, retatrutide's success could meaningfully impact public health strategies and pharmaceutical approaches to managing weight. In the oncology sector, Johnson & Johnson's acquisition of Firefly Bio for $1 billion is a strategic move aimed at enhancing their oncology pipeline with Firefly's Degrader Antibody Conjugate platform. This technology is designed to target KRAS-driven tumors, which are notoriously difficult to treat, prevalent in cancers such as pancreatic and colorectal cancer. By integrating Firefly's innovative platform, J&J aims to offer new hope for patients dealing with these challenging cancers. Turning to regulatory developments, the FDA has expanded Pfizer's Hympavzi label to include pediatric patients aged six and older with hemophilia A and B. This decision follows robust Phase 3 results that demonstrate Hympavzi's efficacy as a prophylactic treatment in this young population. The expanded label underscores efforts to address pediatric needs in areas traditionally focused on adults, thus broadening treatment options for young patients with bleeding disorders. In Europe, Chiesi's Loxujta (lomitapide) has gained EU pediatric label expansion for treating homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, supported by strong Phase 3 data. This expansion aligns with a growing trend toward personalized medicine, tailoring treatments to specific genetic profiles even in younger populations. Collaborative efforts in biotechnology are also gaining momentum. GSK has partnered with Engitix to research liver fibrosis regression through extracellular matrix-targeted drug discovery. This collaboration highlights an industry shift towards leveraging biotechnology for innovative therapeutic solutions. Hikma Pharmaceuticals has shown confidence in the U.S. pharmaceutical manufacturing sector by committing $267 million to expand its facilities in Ohio. This expansion enhances Hikma's production capabilities while creating 350 jobs, positively impacting local economies and ensuring robust supply chain capabilities for essential medicines. The clinical trial landscape is vibrant with promising data across various therapeutic areas. Amgen's Repatha (evolocumab) has demonstrated cardiovascular risk reduction in high-risk diabetes patients without prior heart attacks or strokes, reinforcing its role not just in cholesterol management but also in broader cardiovascular risk mitigation strategies. Dexcom has made strides in metabolic diseases with its G7 continuous glucose monitor showing significant benefits for non-insulin-dependent type 2 diabetes patients. This development illustrates the increasing integration of digital health technologies into chronic disease management. Moreover, emerging treatments like Sciwind Biosciences' ecnoglutide have shown superior weight loss outcomes compared to existing therapies such as semaglutide. Such head-to-head comparisons are crucial for advancing competitive therapeutic landscapes and optimizing patient outcomes. In summary, the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors are experiencing transformative changes driven by scientific advancements and strategic collaborations. These developments not only expand treatment options across various therapeutic areas but also signify a shift toward more personalized and integrated healthcare solutions that could significantly impact patient care and drug development pathways globally. As these trends continue to evolve, they will likely drive further progressions in how pharmaceutical companies approach drug development and regulatory engagements, ultimately benefiting patients worldwide through more effective and personalized treatment modalities.

On this week's episode of Valley of Depth, our first recorded in person, we sit down with Jason Kim, CEO of Firefly Aerospace, in the company's historic Blue Ghost mission control room in Cedar Park, Texas — the same room where 60 engineers watched their lander touch down at one meter per second last year.    From there, the conversation opens into how Jason actually thinks: about the Moon, about scale, and about being a "mission CEO" rather than a hardware or software one. Firefly went public in 2025, acquired defense software company SciTec within months, and now sits inside Golden Dome. Jason argues the market still prices the company as a pure launch player while he's building an end-to-end stack he puts in the same conversation as Anduril and Palantir. We cover: The last 30 seconds of the Blue Ghost Mission 1 landing, from inside the room where it happened Why Blue Ghost Mission 2 is harder: a three-spacecraft stack and the first US far-side landing Whether small launch makes money, and why Alpha is both a profit center and a strategic asset The Eclipse medium-lift bet, the Northrop partnership, and why Starship doesn't make everyone else obsolete Why the Moon matters, and how big the commercial lunar economy actually gets Why a hardware CEO bought a software company The valuation gap with Rocket Lab and what he believes the market hasn't priced in His honest read on SpaceX, China, the new-launch shakeout, and the path to a $100 billion company   • Chapters • 00:00 - Trailer 00:53 – Blue Ghost Mission 1 04:41 – The bar for success for Blue Ghost Mission 1 07:16 – What is the new objective in Blue Ghost Mission 2? 11:49 – Jason coming into Firefly leadership 16:35 – Day 1 as Firefly CEO 18:53 – AE Industrial and how private equity informs Jason's mindset 21:02 – Product stack 22:34 – Demand signal from responsive launch 24:21 – Alpha and small launch economics 26:20 – Firefly's Eclipse 28:09 – How Starship will impact the launch market 29:41 – Viability of commercial launches 32:15 – Blue Ghost x Eclipse? 33:51 – Why does the Moon matter? 36:02 – Jason's commercial lunar economy predictions 38:02 – The future of Blue Ghost's missions 39:52 – Why Jason acquired Sitec 44:30 – Sitec in the Space Force's Golden Dome contracts 47:16 – Why shift Firefly to being a public company? 49:04 – How does Jason address stock price fluctuation internally? 50:49 – Do the public markets understand the space economy? 52:57 – Is Firefly just a launch company? 55:25 – What part of Firefly has the market not priced in yet? 56:50 – Firefly's strategy in a world where lift becomes effectively free 58:49 – Which launch companies will survive? 59:56 – The China question 1:00:33 – Is there a company out there that doesn't get enough attention? 1:01:53 – How Firefly is thinking about M&As 1:04:25 – The path to Firefly hitting a $100B valuation 1:05:25 – Jason Kim, the person 1:07:07 – Who does Jason call for advice? 1:07:57 – What Jason would tell 25-year-old Jason 1:11:58 – What Jason does for fun when not working on space   • Show notes • Firefly's' website — https://fireflyspace.com/ Jason's' socials — https://x.com/Jason_Lil_Kim/ Mo's socials — https://x.com/itsmoislam Payload's socials — https://x.com/payloadspace / https://www.linkedin.com/company/payloadspace Ignition's socials — https://x.com/ignitionnuclear / https://www.linkedin.com/company/ignition-nuclear/ Tectonic's socials — https://x.com/tectonicdefense / https://www.linkedin.com/company/tectonicdefense/ Valley of Depth archive — Listen: https://pod.payloadspace.com/   • About us • Valley of Depth is a podcast about the technologies that matter — and the people building them.

NASA's Moon Base plans just got a major update — and then Blue Origin had a serious New Glenn pad anomaly at LC-36 that could shake up the timeline for upcoming lunar missions. In this episode of Today In Space, we break down NASA's latest Moon Base update, including new awards for lunar landers, terrain vehicles, lunar drones, and the next phase of Artemis-related infrastructure. We also react to the New Glenn pad anomaly during static-fire preparations, what it could mean for Blue Origin, the Artemis architecture, and the broader push to build a permanent human presence on the Moon. Thankfully, no one was harmed — and the payload was not onboard — but this is still a major engineering and programmatic setback. Space is demanding, and moments like this remind us just how much risk, testing, failure analysis, and teamwork go into building the future of exploration. We'll also look at the path forward: root cause analysis, potential pad repairs, whether other launch providers could step in, and how NASA's lunar campaign may adapt from here.

Bob Zimmerman, # 4594, May 26, 2026Quick Summary:This Space Show program focused on NASA's announcement of a restructuring plan for the Artemis lunar program led by Isaacman, which includes multiple unmanned lunar lander missions and the establishment of a lunar base by 2028. Bob detailed how NASA is relying heavily on private companies rather than building hardware internally, with contracts awarded to Blue Origin, Astrobotic, Intuitive Machines, and Firefly for missions starting as early as late 2023. The discussion covered the competitive landscape of commercial space stations, with VAST, Starlab, and Axiom leading the market, while Sierra Space's Orbital Reef partnership with Blue Origin appears to be struggling. The conversation also addressed SpaceX's Starship development progress, with participants debating whether SpaceX would attempt a double catch of both booster and ship on their single launch tower before building a second tower. The show concluded with a discussion about the political and cultural challenges facing space exploration, with participants weighing optimistic versus pessimistic views about the future of commercial spaceflight and space policy.SummaryBob discussed NASA's recent press conference announcing details of its Artemis lunar exploration program, including contract awards and mission plans. The program involves multiple private companies launching lunar landers and rovers to the South Pole region, with the first three missions already scheduled before the end of 2023. Robert noted that while the program is ambitious with plans for up to 20 launches and 25 landings by 2028, it relies heavily on private sector development rather than NASA-built hardware, with Blue Origin receiving significant contracts including two new awards totaling $188 million.Bob discussed Blue Origin's lunar landing plans, expressing skepticism about their timeline of 20 landings by 2028, particularly given their reliance on Blue Origin and the challenges with their New Glenn rocket. The group examined a map shown during a press conference about a potential lunar base location near Shackleton Crater, with Joseph identifying a similar crater field in the area and Robert noting the lack of specific location details in the presented map. The discussion concluded with speculation that NASA might be deliberately withholding specific location information to protect potential landing sites from competitors, particularly China.NASA's lunar exploration plans were talked about, explaining that missions will focus on scouting and engineering work to prepare for future manned landings and a lunar base. He also revealed that NASA awarded SpaceX additional crew launch contracts through 2030, which he interpreted as effectively ending Boeing's Starliner program due to lack of funding for further development. Joseph clarified that NASA is not obligated to provide additional funding to Boeing until they successfully complete their original cost-fixed contract.Bob focused on the current status of commercial space stations, ranking five active projects and noting that while there are market opportunities for ferrying services, Boeing's Starliner faces challenges due to Boeing's poor management. He explained that Dream Chaser's status remains uncertain, with recent delays and incomplete ground testing raising questions about its viability. Robert also provided an update on the five commercial space stations, ranking them and noting that while some projects like VAST and Starlab show promise, Sierra Space's Orbital Reef partnership with Blue Origin appears to be dormant.He also explained that private space stations will outperform the ISS by allowing commercial research to produce saleable products on Earth, unlike the ISS which is restricted to non-commercial research. He discussed how NASA's historical ban on commercial space operations had damaged the American launch industry, citing the example of pharmaceutical research that was halted after the Challenger accident. The group agreed that private companies will own and operate the new stations while NASA purchases services as a customer, representing a shift toward a more capitalist model in space operations.The group discussed SpaceX's lack of response regarding NASA's lunar program, with our guest explaining that SpaceX is focused on manned missions rather than these specific missions and needs to be careful due to their upcoming IPO. The conversation then shifted to comparing NASA's bureaucratic processes with private space station initiatives, with participants noting how private stations are more flexible and business-friendly compared to the complex requirements of getting experiments on the ISS. Bob explained how top-down bureaucratic systems, like the Soviet model, tend to fail due to lack of competition and innovation, while competitive market systems drive better results.Bob did address the historical shift from government-led to commercial space exploration, highlighting how SpaceX and commercial satellite businesses proved that profit could be made in space despite initial skepticism. He explained how NASA's Mars exploration programs have historically been science-focused rather than colonization-focused but noted a recent shift toward engineering-based lunar exploration with the VIPER lander program. The discussion concluded with updates about ULA's Vulcan rocket program, which is currently grounded due to nozzle failures in Northrop Grumman's solid rocket boosters, though static fire tests suggest potential solutions may be in development.The group discussed ULA's challenges with satellite launches, particularly Amazon's delayed satellite deployment and ULA's dependency on strap-on boosters for their Vulcan rocket. Joseph clarified that the NG-4 mission would be a LEO launch carrying 26 satellites, though the rocket's payload capacity might be limited without boosters. The discussion also covered SpaceX's Starship development progress, with Joseph estimating 3-4 flights this year before a second launch tower becomes available in Q4, and the team debated whether SpaceX would attempt a double catch on their current tower or wait for the new one to recover both booster and ship.The Wisdom Team also discussed Elon Musk's management approach and scheduling practices, with Robert explaining that Musk sets realistic but challenging timelines that engineers can trust. The conversation then shifted to Starlink satellite services, with Bob sharing his positive experience using the service despite minor performance issues during house painting. This part of the discussion concluded with my asking Bob for his guess on the political risks facing space commercialization efforts given current uncertainties and realities in the country today.Bob did discuss his perspective as a historian on current societal challenges, presenting both pessimistic and optimistic views of the future. He compared the current political climate to H.G. Wells' time in 1939 and noted that while there are concerning trends, he remains hopeful about society's resilience and ability to correct course. The discussion touched on concerns about data centers, with both David and Joe sharing local experiences about public opposition to data center development, which Bob attributed partly to ignorance and manufactured comments on social media.The team discussed opposition to data center construction, with Joe explaining that while some opposition may be driven by Chinese influence, much of it stems from emotional responses and partisanship rather than rational concerns. Bob emphasized the need for more thoughtful and rational discourse about data centers, distinguishing between legitimate questions about their impact and emotional reactions. Joe clarified that modern data centers use less water than older designs, but the rapid scale of proposed construction (80 gigawatts) far exceeds current grid capacity (40 gigawatts annually), making many planned projects unlikely to be built. Bob concluded that the opposition to data centers on Earth could actually benefit the space industry by driving demand for orbital data centers, which would help develop the rocket industry.The group went on to talk about water requirements for data centers, with Ajay explaining that while traditional nuclear reactors require significant water for cooling, molten salt reactors would not need water for this purpose. The conversation then shifted to political concerns about constitutional issues, with John Hunt warning about potential constitutional collapse and Bob responding with a balanced historical perspective. The conversation ended with technical discussions about SpaceX's Starlink V3 satellites, including their weight and bandwidth capabilities compared to previous versions.Bob Zimmerman, # 4594, May 26, 2026Quick Summary:This Space Show program focused on NASA's announcement of a restructuring plan for the Artemis lunar program led by Isaacman, which includes multiple unmanned lunar lander missions and the establishment of a lunar base by 2028. Bob detailed how NASA is relying heavily on private companies rather than building hardware internally, with contracts awarded to Blue Origin, Astrobotic, Intuitive Machines, and Firefly for missions starting as early as late 2023. The discussion covered the competitive landscape of commercial space stations, with VAST, Starlab, and Axiom leading the market, while Sierra Space's Orbital Reef partnership with Blue Origin appears to be struggling. The conversation also addressed SpaceX's Starship development progress, with participants debating whether SpaceX would attempt a double catch of both booster and ship on their single launch tower before building a second tower. The show concluded with a discussion about the political and cultural challenges facing space exploration, with participants weighing optimistic versus pessimistic views about the future of commercial spaceflight and space policy.SummaryBob discussed NASA's recent press conference announcing details of its Artemis lunar exploration program, including contract awards and mission plans. The program involves multiple private companies launching lunar landers and rovers to the South Pole region, with the first three missions already scheduled before the end of 2023. Robert noted that while the program is ambitious with plans for up to 20 launches and 25 landings by 2028, it relies heavily on private sector development rather than NASA-built hardware, with Blue Origin receiving significant contracts including two new awards totaling $188 million.Bob discussed Blue Origin's lunar landing plans, expressing skepticism about their timeline of 20 landings by 2028, particularly given their reliance on Blue Origin and the challenges with their New Glenn rocket. The group examined a map shown during a press conference about a potential lunar base location near Shackleton Crater, with Joseph identifying a similar crater field in the area and Robert noting the lack of specific location details in the presented map. The discussion concluded with speculation that NASA might be deliberately withholding specific location information to protect potential landing sites from competitors, particularly China.NASA's lunar exploration plans were talked about, explaining that missions will focus on scouting and engineering work to prepare for future manned landings and a lunar base. He also revealed that NASA awarded SpaceX additional crew launch contracts through 2030, which he interpreted as effectively ending Boeing's Starliner program due to lack of funding for further development. Joseph clarified that NASA is not obligated to provide additional funding to Boeing until they successfully complete their original cost-fixed contract.Bob focused on the current status of commercial space stations, ranking five active projects and noting that while there are market opportunities for ferrying services, Boeing's Starliner faces challenges due to Boeing's poor management. He explained that Dream Chaser's status remains uncertain, with recent delays and incomplete ground testing raising questions about its viability. Robert also provided an update on the five commercial space stations, ranking them and noting that while some projects like VAST and Starlab show promise, Sierra Space's Orbital Reef partnership with Blue Origin appears to be dormant.He also explained that private space stations will outperform the ISS by allowing commercial research to produce saleable products on Earth, unlike the ISS which is restricted to non-commercial research. He discussed how NASA's historical ban on commercial space operations had damaged the American launch industry, citing the example of pharmaceutical research that was halted after the Challenger accident. The group agreed that private companies will own and operate the new stations while NASA purchases services as a customer, representing a shift toward a more capitalist model in space operations.The group discussed SpaceX's lack of response regarding NASA's lunar program, with our guest explaining that SpaceX is focused on manned missions rather than these specific missions and needs to be careful due to their upcoming IPO. The conversation then shifted to comparing NASA's bureaucratic processes with private space station initiatives, with participants noting how private stations are more flexible and business-friendly compared to the complex requirements of getting experiments on the ISS. Bob explained how top-down bureaucratic systems, like the Soviet model, tend to fail due to lack of competition and innovation, while competitive market systems drive better results.Bob did address the historical shift from government-led to commercial space exploration, highlighting how SpaceX and commercial satellite businesses proved that profit could be made in space despite initial skepticism. He explained how NASA's Mars exploration programs have historically been science-focused rather than colonization-focused but noted a recent shift toward engineering-based lunar exploration with the VIPER lander program. The discussion concluded with updates about ULA's Vulcan rocket program, which is currently grounded due to nozzle failures in Northrop Grumman's solid rocket boosters, though static fire tests suggest potential solutions may be in development.The group discussed ULA's challenges with satellite launches, particularly Amazon's delayed satellite deployment and ULA's dependency on strap-on boosters for their Vulcan rocket. Joseph clarified that the NG-4 mission would be a LEO launch carrying 26 satellites, though the rocket's payload capacity might be limited without boosters. The discussion also covered SpaceX's Starship development progress, with Joseph estimating 3-4 flights this year before a second launch tower becomes available in Q4, and the team debated whether SpaceX would attempt a double catch on their current tower or wait for the new one to recover both booster and ship.The Wisdom Team also discussed Elon Musk's management approach and scheduling practices, with Robert explaining that Musk sets realistic but challenging timelines that engineers can trust. The conversation then shifted to Starlink satellite services, with Bob sharing his positive experience using the service despite minor performance issues during house painting. This part of the discussion concluded with my asking Bob for his guess on the political risks facing space commercialization efforts given current uncertainties and realities in the country today.Bob did discuss his perspective as a historian on current societal challenges, presenting both pessimistic and optimistic views of the future. He compared the current political climate to H.G. Wells' time in 1939 and noted that while there are concerning trends, he remains hopeful about society's resilience and ability to correct course. The discussion touched on concerns about data centers, with both David and Joe sharing local experiences about public opposition to data center development, which Bob attributed partly to ignorance and manufactured comments on social media.The team discussed opposition to data center construction, with Joe explaining that while some opposition may be driven by Chinese influence, much of it stems from emotional responses and partisanship rather than rational concerns. Bob emphasized the need for more thoughtful and rational discourse about data centers, distinguishing between legitimate questions about their impact and emotional reactions. Joe clarified that modern data centers use less water than older designs, but the rapid scale of proposed construction (80 gigawatts) far exceeds current grid capacity (40 gigawatts annually), making many planned projects unlikely to be built. Bob concluded that the opposition to data centers on Earth could actually benefit the space industry by driving demand for orbital data centers, which would help develop the rocket industry.The group went on to talk about water requirements for data centers, with Ajay explaining that while traditional nuclear reactors require significant water for cooling, molten salt reactors would not need water for this purpose.

What happens when a libertarian Bitcoin OG, a 14-year homeschooling veteran, and a classical curriculum pioneer walk into the same platform? You get Firefly. In this episode of Refining Rhetoric, host Robert Bortins sits down with Jordan Page — founder of Firefly Education Network, nationally recognized musician, and longtime Bitcoiner — to talk about why he built a decentralized, all-in-one homeschool platform for families who are done letting the state educate their kids. Jordan shares how homeschooling his seven children, his wife Mary's experience exposing the public school agenda firsthand, and his passion for sound money and liberty all converged into Firefly — an international homeschool platform featuring AI-powered curriculum tools, the Ron Paul K–12 classical curriculum, private community features, live classes, and more. Whether you're just starting your homeschool journey or you've been at it for years, this conversation is packed with practical insight — and a bold vision for what family-led education can look like when it's truly free.

Just as it is with road safety, so much of how Americans talk about health pushes the responsibility for eating right and exercising onto the individual, ignoring the many structural barriers that prevent people from making "good" choices. Through her newsletter, She's a Beast, and her bestselling book A Physical Education: How I Escaped Diet Culture and Gained the Power of Lifting, Casey Johnston cuts through the noise, making connections across various disciplines to help people rethink their notions about health, exercise and body positivity. Casey joins The War on Cars to talk about how "at the scale of daily life, cars should be systematically discouraged, in order to even begin to contend with the deaths and health decline from a lack of physical activity." ***Support The War on Cars on Patreon and receive exclusive access to ad-free versions of regular episodes, Patreon-only bonus content, Discord access, invitations to live events, merch discounts and free stickers!*** Order our new book, Life After Cars: Freeing Ourselves from the Tyranny of the Automobile, out now from Thesis, an imprint of Penguin Random House.

Interview with Keith Boyle, CEO of New Found Gold, and Darren Cooke, CEO of FireFly MetalsRecording date: 3rd May 2026Newfoundland and Labrador is rapidly emerging as a premier mining jurisdiction, attracting significant investment due to its efficient permitting, established infrastructure, and strong labour pool. Industry leaders Keith Boyle of New Found Gold and Darren Cooke of Firefly Metals highlight how these advantages are reshaping project economics and timelines compared to other regions.A key differentiator is the province's collaborative regulatory approach. Companies work closely with government agencies before formal submissions, enabling unusually fast approvals illustrated by Firefly's environmental assessment completed in just 45 days. This proactive process, combined with relatively straightforward Indigenous consultation frameworks, reduces delays that often extend mine development elsewhere.Infrastructure plays a central role in lowering costs and accelerating timelines. New Found Gold benefits from proximity to transportation and power networks, as well as its acquisition of the Pine Cove Mill, which eliminated the need to build new processing facilities. Firefly Metals similarly leverages approximately $250 million in existing underground development at its Green Bay project, including deep access infrastructure that would otherwise take տարին to replicate. These factors significantly compress capital requirements and construction schedules.Both companies are advancing distinct but complementary strategies. New Found Gold is targeting production by late 2027 with modest capital expenditure of $155 million, focusing initially on high-grade zones averaging 12 grams per tonne. This approach is expected to generate over $300 million in annual cash flow at current gold prices. Meanwhile, Firefly's Green Bay project combines its large 80 million tonne resource with strong grades, positioning it as a rare near-term copper development asset. The company is well funded and exploring non-dilutive financing through offtake agreements.Importantly, Newfoundland's returning skilled workforce supports these accelerated timelines without the labour shortages seen in other regions. Together, these advantages enable both companies to pursue development timelines closer to six years, significantly faster than the typical decade-long cycle in the global mining industry.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Join our next FASO Show Live!https://artists.boldbrush.com/p/the-faso-showLearn the magic of marketing  with us here at BoldBrush!boldbrushshow.comGet over 50% off your first year on your artist website with FASO:FASO.com/podcast---For today's episode we sat down with Alyse Firefly Russell, a figurative painter whose work blends realism with surreal, colorful, often floral elements, a style that was largely shaped by years of live painting at music festivals where she learned to paint intuitively “with the music.” She explains that her path included attending an art magnet school, art college, and then gradually building a career through live painting gigs that evolved into larger festivals and gallery shows. Returning to full-time painting after a break for family health issues, she describes dealing with imposter syndrome and how winning the BoldBrush contest and reconnecting with a gallery reassured her that she is indeed a professional artist. Her core practical advice for becoming a full-time artist is to maintain consistent studio hours, treat art like a real job, and avoid burning out by overworking, since regular rest actually helps the work improve. She also emphasizes the importance of putting yourself out there by showing up at events, talking to people, and learning basic marketing because even highly skilled artists won't sell if no one sees their work, while less technically skilled but visible artists often do well. Alyse also highlights nurturing relationships with collectors (e.g., newsletters, personal notes, holiday cards) and reminds artists that careers usually grow gradually, through small, steady steps rather than a single “big break.” Finally, Alyse tells us about her upcoming group show “Bloom: A Kaleidoscope of Botanical Beauty” at Threyda Gallery in Denver, opening May 1, 2026 and running through the end of May, with the show also viewable online at the gallery's website.Alyse's FASO Site:alyserussell.com/Alyse's Social Media:instagram.com/alysefireflyartfacebook.com/AlyseFireflyArt/Threyda Gallery "Bloom: A Kaleidoscope of Botanical Beauty"threyda.com/pages/gallery
