This May marks a huge anniversary for a brand that utterly transformed the way we dress, a company that became a chameleon, adapting instantly to the hottest trends. We're talking about Zara, celebrating 50 years of disrupting the fashion world! How did a small operation, started in A Coruña, Spain, by an entrepreneurial couple, Amancio Ortega Gaona and his wife Rosalia, become a global powerhouse worth over $171 billion? What was the secret behind Zara's "fast fashion" model, a system so agile it could take a design from sketch to store in a mere two weeks, while competitors were still planning months ahead?Join us as we explore the revolutionary pillars of Zara's success: from their pioneering vertical integration and rapid design turnover to their incredibly efficient distribution and unique "scarcity" strategy that keeps you coming back for more. But it's not all glamorous runways and record sales. We'll also delve into the significant challenges Zara faces today – from intense competition with ultra-low-cost rivals like Shein and Temu, to the increasing backlash against fast fashion's environmental and social impact. Can Zara truly pivot towards sustainability while maintaining its core DNA of speed and volume?You can find a transcript hereAnd click here for more stories, songs, and stimulaing innovation resources

Here's a walk through of one of my real world, paid 15k web design proposals. I walk you through what I included, how I structured it and the 3 keys I recommend that every web design proposal have.This audio is taken from a recent video I posted on my YouTube channel so I highly recommend checking out the video version if you'd like to see all the visuals!⏯️ Watch the video version hereAnd you share your thoughts, feedback and questions at the show notes for this one which will be at joshhall.co/380Quick tips:Web proposals don't need to be complex PDF brochures to be effective—they need to clearly communicate goals, deliverables, and pricing to help clients make decisions quickly.• Website proposals should focus on three key elements: goals and expected results, a simple outline of deliverables, and clear costs presented as investments• The most effective proposals are scannable documents of 2-3 pages, not 20-page brochures that overwhelm clients• Include 10-15 high-level deliverables rather than an exhaustive checklist of every task you'll perform• Separate core website development from add-on services like SEO boosts or e-commerce functionality to create clear line items• Consider your proposal's audience—often they need to share it with CEOs or boards who need to quickly understand what they're approving• Real examples of successful proposals show consistent structure across different project sizes, from $4,000 to $15,000• Payment schedules should be clearly outlined with 50% upfront for smaller projects or 30/30/40 splits for larger ones

In this episode of Double Jeopardy, Ken Macdonald KC and Tim Owen KC dissect Kemi Badenoch's focus on a controversial ruling involving a Palestinian family. They go on to consider the UN Convention on Refugees, and ask whether it remains viable in a new age of mass displacement and population movement.How should governments respond to migration and asylum, when both are massive drivers of populist political movements seeking to promote authoritarianism and destroy liberal democracy?Finally, Ken and Tim return to the campaign to remove Richard Hermer from his position as Attorney General.

Send me a Text Message about the show!Time to do an update on how things are going in the Department of Education now that we are 623 days into the Trump administration.  Wait, no…..I'm being told it has actually been 27 days.  I'm sorry.So when I last spoke about the Dept of Education, it was November 18th and I was reacting to the release of then President elect Trump's 10 point education plan.I did an overview on the history of the Department of Education and an overview of the programs in which the Department oversees.  I would encourage you, if you haven't already, to listen to that episode first as I will be jumping into a lot more detail and specifics about the Department of Education in this episode.You can listen to that episode hereAnd now we know what the reality is of this administration's plan.  As President Trump said in a press conference from the Oval office on February 13th, “I'd like to close the department of education immediately”. Although his nominee for Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon is still going through her confirmation hearing, she has echoed this goal, although perhaps on a slightly slower timeline than the President has said. Today I want to try my best to articulate what these proposed changes will mean in practice in as plain and clear language as I can.  Read Project 2025 hereRead Proposed Programs to be closed hereSupport the showKeep up with all things WeSTAT on any (or ALL) of the social feeds:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/westatpod/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@westatpodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/westatpod/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/westatpod/Twitter: https://x.com/WeSTATpodHave a topic or want to stay in touch via e-mail on all upcoming news?https://www.westatpod.com/Help monetarily support the podcast by subscribing to the show!

This year marks the 100th anniversary of Alain Locke's classic essay "The New Negro" and the literary anthology featuring the work of Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Countee Cullen and other significant black writers of the day.The rising artistic scene would soon be known as the Harlem Renaissance, one of the most important cultural movements in American history. And it would be centered within America's largest black neighborhood -- Harlem, the "great black city," as described by Wallace Thurman, with a rising population and growing political and cultural influence.During the 1920s, Harlem became even more. Along "Swing Street" and Lenox Avenue, nightclubs and speakeasies gave birth to American music and fostered great musical talents like Count Basie, Billie Holiday and Duke Ellington. Ballrooms like the Savoy and the Alhambra helped turn Harlem into a destination for adventure and romance.What were these two worlds like -- the literary salons and the nightclubs? How removed were these spheres from the everyday lives of regular Harlem residents? How did the neighborhood develop both an energetic and raucous music scene and a diverse number of churches -- many (like the Abyssinian Baptist Church) still around today?Visit the website for more details and more podcastsGet tickets to our March 31 City Vineyard event Bowery Boys HISTORY LIVE! hereAnd join us for our Gilded Age Weekend in New York, May 29-June 1, 2025.

Having been a student of Yoga Psychotherapist Ashley Turner for well over a decade, todays episode is an absolute prividge. Today I share our Insta Live deep dive into the importance of pelvic health, particularly during midlife and menopause. I share my own personal journey; from being unaware of pelvic health issues to becoming a specialised pelvic floor and core coach following her own postpartum experiences, despite being a qualified Physiotherapist. We highlight the lack of quality education and knowledge regarding pelvic floor health in Western medical and yoga training. Despite our different speciality backgrounds, we deeply understand and appreciate the intersecting physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of pelvic health and shed light on the prevailing societal stigma, with the intention of better supporting our women. Enjoy 2 WEEKS FREE in Ashleys Haven Membership HERE or Support your Menopause with her deep 6 month Metamorphosis programme HEREAnd, to access my 2 FREE Workshops in November, head to www.FitFannyAdams.com/November`I really hope you enjoys todays episode.

Luke Kemp (historical collapse expert; associate at the Centre for the Study of Existential Risk) has studied past civilisations and mapped out a picture of how long they tend to last before they collapse, what tends to tip them and what (if anything) can be done to stall their demise. Luke works alongside Lord Martin Rees and Yuval Noah Harari, is an honorary lecturer in environmental policy at the Australian National University and his collapse insights have been covered by the BBC, the New York Times and the New Yorker. His first book, 'Goliath's Curse: The History and Future of Societal Collapse' will be published in June 2025. In this episode I get Luke to provide a bit of a 101 on how civilisations do indeed decline and perish and to update us on the latest theories on how and whether ours might make it through.

Steven Page is not just another great guest to me. He sings on one of my top 15 albums of all time, Gordon. He's a multiple Juno award winner and Grammy nominee with his former band Barenaked Ladies. As part of that group he's sold over 15 million albums and singles and is in the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. There is so much more I could have talked about with this gifted singer and songwriter. So many awesome experiences he's had that I didn't have time to ask about (opening for The Who for example), but I think if you are already a fan, you'll still learn a thing or two you didn't know.
