**This episode is brought to you by MuteSix and Sendlane**   “Giving gifts is important” that's the reminder from Bestowe Gifting to people and corporations. In part 2, Catherine Weis, Founder of Bestowe Gifting, says that giving gifts reminds people that someone is looking out for them. Since her childhood, Catherine has been into artisanship. According to her, Artisans gravitate towards visual mediums like Pinterest and Instagram, so they also have a featured artisan page on their site.  She partners with event planners and companies like Forbes, Google, Netflix, and others. They provide gifting services for baby showers, weddings, homes, holidays, wellness, thank you's, and employees. She discusses: * Traits she looks for in Artisans * What artisans gravitate towards * Their artisan page * Their custom gifting service * Partnership with event planners * Bestowe Gifting's collection * Being sustainable Join Ramon Vela and Catherine Weis as they break down the inside story on The Story of a Brand.

The new year is a time that has inspired gifting and exchange throughout history in recognition of new beginnings. Yet, the date of New years has moved around frequently as calendars have shifted and it has been celebrated in many different ways. Today, we take a look at some of the different celebrations that occurred in medieval Europe, ending with a quick look at an iconic moment of gifting painted in many Books of Hours: the Adoration of the Magi. What were medieval joyaux and what does Quasimodo have to do with new years celebrations? Find out today on the Les Enluminures podcast.    Resources:  Göldene Rössl  Minnekästchen Casket with Two Lovers  Thourotte Hours (BOH215)  Book of Hours by the Master of the Prayerbooks of 1500 (BOH205)  The Rise of the Black Magus in Western Art 

I'm sharing something a little different with you today, to close out COVID Dumpster Fire Year version 2.0...... Back in November I had the awesome opportunity to be on the other side of the mic as a guest on the Lessons from The MAP podcast, hosted by Jamie Blackburn. Jamie is a somatic wellness educator whose mission is to help people decrease their anxiety and chronic stress by teaching them tricks to create a more Mindful, Active, and Present (MAP) life- that's where the M-A-P comes from, Mindful, Active and Present.I met Jamie through a podcaster Facebook group I'm part of (that was created by none other than Emily Holland, my guest on GGW back in May of this year). On her podcast, Lessons from the MAP, Jamie interviews female outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers about how adventures in the natural world have shaped their inner landscape - so of course I was honored to participate and share a little bit of the origin story of Guides Gone Wild!A quick note before we dive into this conversation - you'll hear us talking about the Guides Gone Wild Giving and Gifting guides - and guess what, even though the holiday season is winding down, there's still PLENTY of time to make some year-end donations to a few more worthy causes! Or better yet, find a few organizations to support on an ongoing basis in 2022 - every little bit makes a difference, so whatever your giving goals are, I hope you'll head to GuidesGoneWild.com/Giving to learn about the causes that are closest to our guests' hearts. Also be sure to check out Jamie Blackburn's work at InnerMapProject.com - you can listen to all of the episodes of her podcast and check out the wellness programs and resources she has available there.Listen in as I take the hot seat and talk about finding new purpose and inspiration through conversation. And while you're at it, let's raise a glass (bubbly, sparkly, kombucha, whatever) to 2022 - may this coming year create opportunities for all of us to forget, for a minute, what the potential viral load exposure of every freaking activity might be, so that we can grab a few friends and try something new - in community!

In The Age of Influence, I talk about how leveraging influencers is the best way to incite word of mouth in social media if you don't have a large fanbase.What Mike Baddeley did for his brand Passchier is a case study that you can learn from as to how to go about doing this.We're not talking about randomly paying random influencers with large followings to talk about you. We're talking about strategically building relationships with those that will probably be interested in your product or service and gifting them product to kickstart things.It is an approach that many startups use with success, so listen in to how Mike has used this strategy to literally help build his business.Key Highlights[03:38] Introduction of Podcast Guest, Mike Baddeley[06:26] How Mike Started Passchier [08:52] How Mike Promoted His Products[12:08] The Marketing Technique Mike Did To Spread The Word About Handlebars[13:10] How Mike Find Influencers[14:51] The Problem Of Finding Relevant Influencers[16:24] Sustainability Angle[18:25] How To Maintain Relationships and Expand At The Same Time[21:44] Potential TikTok Marketing[22:39] Mike's Advice On Leveraging The Power Of Gifting[24:46] Connect With MikeNotable QuotesThe spread the word key audience is his bike tourists and commuters. Just contacting these influencers on Instagram, or on their websites, and just approaching all these people.You've got to get them in people's hands. And you know, you can't sell a secret member, someone saying that it's such an obvious thing to say, but you've got to get out there. And you've got to get people talking.The journey now is some of the influences we've targeted and had dialogue in there reviewed the product, we need, you know, maintain that relationship. So managing that relationship is a critical part of that journey.They've got an audience in the audience wants to hear information. And so if we can be proactive in providing that and providing product for their customers to to sample as well. So we're giving giveaways to their customer base as well, their member base as well.What people forget is that creators need not just creativity and an audience, but they need content, they need things to get content around, right.And it's a really good reminder that really what it comes down to is the content but also you being able to provide that and those do that have product have the ability to provide.It might be a little bit harder to get people excited about wanting to try your product, but the higher value offer and the more relevant it is for the people you reach out to obviously, the better results you're going to get.Connect with Mike BaddeleyPasschier: https://www.passchier.co.nz/Mike Baddeley on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mike-baddeley-513b2113/More Info on Neal Schaffer and This Podcast:Join My Digital First Mastermind Community: https://nealschaffer.com/membership/ Contact Me about My Fractional CMO Consulting Services: https://nealschaffer.com/contact/ The Age of Influence Free Preview: https://nealschaffer.com/age-of-influence-preview Subscribe to my YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/nealschaffer Learn more about this podcast:  https://podcast.nealschaffer.com

Writing songs from early childhood, Haldor Lillenas had no idea he'd become a renowned preacher, evangelist, and songwriter. Gifting us with such great hymns as "The Bible Stands" and "Wonderful Grace of Jesus," he also supplied us with this upbeat Gospel hymn packed with theology and truth. During this Christmas week, we've been looking at the prophecy in Isaiah 9:6, and this song pulls directly from it.

Let's say someone decides to make charitable gifting a new year's resolution. What makes this resolution easier to keep than others?Most resolutions are about reducing negative behaviors.Eating too much, spending too much, watching too much Netflix.It's tough when you go about changing or eliminating a negative behavior.But when you focus your resolution on increasing positive behaviors, such as community involvement or charitable gifting, your success rate will be higher.You'll feel great about it and, with charitable gifting, there can be some significant financial advantages, too.How can someone get started on this and know it's right for them?Getting started is easy.Think about non-profits you like to give to.What causes are you passionate about?And think about how much you want to give and how often.And if you want to do it individually or have your family involved.Once you've thought about these basics, then a chat with your wealth management advisor can help you figure out a strategy for gifting.There are a lot of different approaches to charitable gifting? What are some of the most common ways?Let's talk about two of the simplest ways.One, of course, is giving cash gifts to organizations you support.You can make a resolution to make regular donations or a one-time donation.And if it's a qualified charitable organization then you're entitled to a tax deduction against your income taxes.And you can easily check to see if a charitable organization is qualified or not.There's a website charitynavigator.org can tell you if your donation will be tax deductible or not.The second easiest way, after cash gifts, is to make qualified distributions from a retirement account directly to your charitable organization.If you have an IRA, for example, and are at least 70 and a half years old, you can contribute some or all of your IRA to charity.The upside – at 70 and a half you're required to take distributions anyway and the donation will not be taxed.So you get to take your required distribution without realizing any tax burden.What about Donor Advised Funds? Those are set up just for charitable purposes, right? That's right.A Donor Advised Fund is an account that's like an investment account but set up for charitable purposes.The big advantage here is there are no rules on how much you give or which organizations you give to, as long as it's charitable.And your gifts earn you an immediate tax deduction.But it's not for everyone. Your wealth management advisor can tell you more, but a DAF is best for someone if you have an event – such as selling a business – that creates a large tax obligation.If that's the case, you can set up a DAF to receive the funds and distribute them to charity for a larger and immediate tax deduction.With a DAF you want to work with your wealth management advisor and really let your advisor manage the account under your direction.And then that leads us to things like Charitable Trusts and Foundations and taking more of a family approach to charitable giving.Yes, both of those approaches take a longer term “family legacy” approach to charitable gifting.There are a lot of different types of charitable trusts and you need to carefully select a type, with your advisor's help, that matches your goals.A charitable remainder trust is a very common type.With it, you set money aside in your lifetime and when you pass away the remaining money is gifted to one or more charitable organizations.The trust can create a stream of income for yourself during your lifetime, give you a partial tax deduction – based on the anticipated eventual gift – and reduce estate taxes when you pass away.A private foundation takes things a step further.On the upside, with a private foundation, there are expanded giving opportunities.You can make grants to individuals or non-charitable organizations.Giving becomes more strategic and more focused on a cause or ways to make an impact.But the time commitment, regulatory requirements and costs associated with a private foundation often steer people back to a Donor Advised Fund.Which can be created and managed much more easily.And that sounds like a key for keeping a New Year's Resolution.Without a doubt.That and picking a cause or charity that's close to your heart.Useful info/linksFNBO: https://www.fnbo.com/insights/wealth/make-charitable-giving-your-new-years-resolution/index.htmlHow Stuff Works: https://money.howstuffworks.com/economics/volunteer/starting-a-charity/charitable-trust.htmNational Charitable Endowment: https://nationalcharitable.org/donor-advised-funds-basics/

It's the Christmas season again!  If you want to gift something, either cash, stock, cars, or property to someone your love, or for charity, please watch this episode.  People assume they can gift others whatever they want, because "well it's my money!"  But you know the IRS, they want to tax you for everything.  You can't, as a matter of fact, just give out free money/gifts however you want.  For 2021, you can gift any individual $15,000 per year without paying gift tax.  For example, if my parents want to help me buy a condo, my mom and dad can each gift me $15,000, and then each gift my husband $15,000.  That's $60,000 in total.  Anything above that, they can: 1. count it out of their lifetime exclusion limit (which is $11.7 million per person right now), 2. they can pay the gift tax, or 3. they can consider it a loan, and charge me interest.  Dan and Tim talked about how to gift assets in kind, what the arm's length rule is, and what the 5-year lookback rule is.  For Part II of this episode, we will discuss gifting businesses and investments, and the rules of charitable giving.

Come along as Trish, Paula and I ease on into the Cedar Grove Sauna, head out to the plunge tub, and then get inspired hearing where Jackie Stratton of Waterways Guiding was back in January of 2021, long before she knew she'd be creating such a magical experience from the ground up for a bunch of Massholes. You can DIY this adventure too!:Cedar Grove SaunaChicken Barn AirbnbWaterways GuidingHills to Sea TrailLake St. George BrewingThe benefits of sauna (yes, Paula, just the hot part is good for you!)And while you've got fun on your mind, it's not too late to stock up on fun gifts and experiences to share this holiday season - head to GuidesGoneWild.com/Gifting for a little something for everyone on your list!

This week's episode is featuring Linsay Moran, the co-founder of Unwrapit! Linsay Moran is the co-founder of Unwrapit, a tech startup that wants to decarbonize corporate gifting and make it more green -- this is especially relevant with climate change and the severe impact that supply chain issues are having on businesses. Unwrapit is a solution to that. Corporate gifting is a $242B industry and climbing, projected to reach $306 Billion by 2024. Many corporate gifting solutions consist of physical gifts and merchandise that is ultimately destined for a landfill. Unwrapit is creating a new paradigm for corporate gifting experiences by offering relationship-building options for forward thinking people in the form of unique gift cards, subscriptions and other virtual offerings that will help reduce waste caused by corporate gifting.Prior to becoming a co-founder of Unwrapit, Linsay Moran helped bring a spotlight to women as an executive at Women of Influence.The corporate gifting market has typically been viewed as an industry with only a limited amount of corporate swag options to gift -- branded totes, notepads pens, and gift cards. Now, companies are seeing the benefit in partnering with retailers and merchants that their employees want and valueso gifts are  actually enjoyed and used versus thrown away.  Unwrapit is committed to taking the waste out of corporate gifting. Do we need another tote, especially with ‘the cotton tote' crisis? (An organic cotton tote needs to be used 20,000 times to offset its overall impact of production, according to a 2018 study ). Unwrapit gifts are rarely physical products, and are transferred virtually, eliminating any environmental implications associated with physical shipping.We talk about:- Being a woman in tech, but not technical and feeling that imposter syndrome in the industry- Creating an authentically curated network- Her role as a female founder and mentor having worked with incredible leaders in the space- A unique method to finding the perfect co-founders - Sustainability as a business and how make these important changes And much more!Resources:Unwrapit website:  https://www.unwrapit.com/ Linsay Moran: https://www.linkedin.com/in/linsaymoran/ Sponsored by:Girl Gang Code https://thegirlgang.ca/r?id=m1u36b Three Ships Beauty Code MADEITHAPPEN20Shop SheKind Code MADEIT20Podcast Brought to you by:Elevatepodcastco.comPowered by:www.buzzsprout.com/Connect With Us:Website: www.madeithappenpod.com/Instagram: www.instagram.com/madeithappenpodcast/LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/made-it-happen-podcast

Reading has always been an important part of my life but let's be honest, as a mom, I rarely get reading time. I prioritize audio over hard copies, but I still want to share my current reads in case you are looking for something to read during your time off this holiday. I have three book recommendations for you, two of them by two of my biggest she-roes and one for fun. I also have some suggestions in case you are looking for a special gift for someone in your life. I'm being very intentional with gifts this year so rest assured, these are meaningful to me. And finally, I'm sharing what I'm working on right now and talking a little bit about the book launch.

The enemy will always attack you where God has gifted you. For some people, it's difficult to identify where their gifting is. But, if you follow the trail of the hurt in your life and the lies that have made their mark on your heart through your story, you will often uncover your gifting. The things you go through give you authority to offer hope to the world around you. What would it look like for you to step confidently forward in all God has gifted you to do with assurance that God gave you your gifts to bring Him glory? We all might just see heaven tough earth when women begin to align their work, identity with God's eternal purposes. Want to join the waitlist for our upcoming course called "Work From Worth?" The course launches January 7th! Add your email to the waitlist by following this link: https://workfromworth.mykajabi.com/

Don't get us wrong, flowers are blooming lovely, but sometimes it's nice to give – and to receive – something a bit different. But what? Well, on this week's podzine, Steph Douglas, founder and CEO of Don't Buy Her Flowers, chats to Jen about thoughtful present giving – just in time for Christmas. When Mandi Bharij started her sewing side hustle Make With Mandi, she had no idea her patterns and sewing tips would make her a name in the Instagram sewing space. She talks to Mick about pattern-making, the importance of visible diversity in sewing and how if you don't ask, you don't get.
