In this episode Chris and Hope sit down to discuss a big topic for the new world order we live in - Bitcoin. Hope is a huge crypto enthusiast who has been involved in the Bitcoin scene since 2016, and shares his insights on Bitcoin, why it has tremendous value, and why it was (is) so popular in China. For most Millennials living in this digital age, Bitcoin and crypto should soon be the norm rather than the exception. Show Notes: Chris and Hope’s simple explanations of what Bitcoin is and what value it provides. Digital money and common misconceptions about value. How Hope came across Bitcoin a few years ago, more or less out of necessity. Why banks are so draconian and why that will be their downfall. The future outlook for social trends and why that is bullish for Bitcoin. How does a newcomer go about buying Bitcoin? Hope answers the age-old question of “is it a good time to buy Bitcoin now?” and why short term price should not be a deterrence for a long term view. Altcoins and Bitcoin “maximalism”, and why Hope does not recommend holding altcoins for the long term. Best places to find educational information about Bitcoin. China’s early “glory days” and vibrant Bitcoin community, and the PBOC ban that quieted things down.

In this episode of the Millennials in China podcast we go back to just Chris and Hope, having a conversation revolving around Tim Ferriss’ famous book “The 4-Hour Workweek” and the digital nomad trend it set off. Hope dives into Amazon FBA, one of the most popular online business models, and gives his own insight and anecdote on setting up an FBA business and living the digital nomad life. Show Notes: Chris brings up “The 4-Hour Workweek” by Tim Ferriss, which he had just read recently and is immensely motivated by. Hope’s experience reading Tim Ferriss’ book and how that set him off on the “digital nomad” path back in 2016. Trading time for money vs. automated income. Should you start a side hustle while working full time? How Hope took the plunge into starting an Amazon FBA business, and how to overcome “paralysis by analysis.” How much starting capital is needed for setting up an Amazon FBA business? Hope talks about living the digital nomad life and how it has its pros and cons, and how he sometimes prefers to have a “homebase” where he can establish a routine in order to be productive. How the Amazon FBA and e-commerce landscape has changed and you can no longer just throw up a generic product and make a profit. Hiring virtual assistants and when it’s necessary. Product sourcing and niche selection tips. Final words of wisdom for aspiring digital nomads. --------------------------- Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/millennials-in-china/id1503870294 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0MwEJZnnZ2sNWje7wP0GaW?si=tWqgkgwoQCueTrEfeI3-6g Listen on Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/?feed=aHR0cDovL21pbGxlbm5pYWxzaW5jaGluYS5jb20vcnNz Listen on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCm6jqVbJ1SR_g9iTLFxyF1g Podcast Website: http://millennialsinchina.com Podcast Facebook: https://facebook.com/millennialsinchina Podcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/MillennialsCN Chris' Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisWood1821 Hope's Twitter: https://twitter.com/hope_freiheit Hope’s Instagram: https://instagram.com/hope_freiheit Hope’s Website: https://hopefreiheit.com

Hello beautiful creators! The incomparable, bold, and unmistakably talented Hope Littwin is back for the second half of her interview, where she expands upon her journey to worthy, and generously grants us incredible insights on self-acceptance, artistic integrity, self-care, and honoring her boundaries. My favorite moments in Part 2:-Hope gives us a week FREE of BetterHelp.com: https://www.betterhelp.com/rpc/35e926db347781a601-On her mindset shift to worthiness: “Instead of thinking ‘how cheaply can I possibly do this,’ I’m working on ‘how BIG can I possibly think, how much can I ask for?’” -How Hope assembles her “army of self care.”-Negative self-talk is actually a comment on “I feel shame, I feel like I’m not worthy,” the more you dig into it, it’s like this is what you’re actually saying underneath your complaint. -Protecting her energy: “I cover my head...it’s like a boundary; I’m here, you’re there, and I don’t have to participate in your negative energy.-The emotional displacement caused by episodes: “I think that’s a question of self-acceptance and compassion for self, to recognize that this is happening, it’s not the end of the world, but it still sucks, but there’s also something in here that could be valuable, so how do I think about this situation differently, and prove to myself that it’s useful.” -“To get to that place of understanding why you do what you do and where your integrity is with what you’re gonna share, is hard work, and it’s valuable work, and I think we have a responsibility as creators to do that work.”Hope Littwin-Betterhelp.com is a great way you can find affordable and quality therapists on the road, online, and in a pandemic. ****sign up for a week free on Better Help through Hope***** https://www.betterhelp.com/rpc/35e926db347781a601Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/hopelittwinApple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/hope-littwin/1093585754Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1JhseWoqZMlNV6jREoTUI3Youtube: www.youtube.com/hopelittwinBandcamp: https://hopelittwin.bandcamp.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hopelittwin/For links and more, visit https://www.steelmaggiemusic.com/podcast and check out Episode 48 - The Art of Self-Acceptance - Hope Littwin: Part 2If you found value in this podcast, please save this episode, subscribe/follow Mind Made Wrong wherever you listen, and if it moves you, share this with another beautiful creator you know.

This week on the PRmoment podcast, we've got Jo Carr, co-founder, and chief client officer at Hope&Glory. Hope&Glory was co-founded by Jo Carr and James Gordon-MacIntosh in 2011. It now has a fee income of circa £8.5 million, employs about 80 people and grew by 25% in 2019. [00:01:26] How Jo originally wanted to be a journalist or work in advertising. [00:03:33] How Jo was originally a corpsumer PR person and made the switch to consumer relatively late in her career. [00:08:15] Jo talks about the importance of being able to be yourself at work: “I'm a big believer that you should be the same person at work as you are at home". [00:09:30] Why Jo's time at QBO Bell Pottinger was such an important time of her career. [00:11:43] Whether the relatively painful merger of QBO and Bell Pottinger Consumer has had an influence on Jo not wanting to sell Hope&Glory so far?[00:14:57] How Jo meeting James Gordon-MacIntosh was a career-defining bit of luck. [00:17:11] Jo tells us how it felt being the new kid at 77PR – joining an established management team of Alan Twigg and James Gordon-MacIntosh. [00:18:32] How James, Alan and Jo approached Omnicom to try and do an MBO of 77PR, but got knocked back. [00:20:33] Why once you've thought about creating your own agency, it's very hard to put the "genie back into the bottle". [00:21:18] Why James and Jo decided to get backing from Lansons Communications when they launched Hope&Glory. [00:22:37] What it was like starting Hope&Glory with literally no clients! [00:25:50] How Hope&Glory won 02 just a couple of months after starting. [00:27:08] Why James’s and Jo's skills complement each other. [00:30:24] What advice does Jo have for any budding PR entrepreneurs out there? [00:36:53] How has Hope&Glory managed to hold on to so many large consumer accounts for such a prolonged period? [00:39:39] Why agencies don't want to "be a leaky bucket". [00:40:22] How Hope&Glory has improved its margins in recent years. [00:45:00] What's the plan for the next stage of Hope&Glory? Why James and Jo can't make all the decisions anymore. [00:46:34] Are independent agencies currently more fun, more flexible, and perhaps a bit easier to lead than their group-owned peers?

After touring for years around the world with Nahko & Medicine for the People, Hope Medford decided to have a baby. In this episode, Hope and I discuss her journey of becoming a doula and midwife, what it has been like to attend over 450 births and her experience of performing in front of thousands as drummer for Nahko & Medicine for the People. "There's something about being with a woman giving birth that just doesn't even compare to performing on stage in front of thousands of people" In this episode we discussed: Hope’s first experience attending a birth at 19 years old Her journey to becoming a midwife and experience of attending births The benefits of water birth How Hope first felt called to the drum Hope’s journey to becoming a mother and giving birth to her daughter at home in water Raising women’s voices and how we can lift each other up The energy of the Big Island of Hawaii and MAnaFest, the festival she puts on each year there in honor of the sacred feminine Stay in Touch with Hope: Website: www.hopemedford.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/Hope-Medford Youtube: www.youtube.com/user/TheFlipside29 Hope is a creative force. Following spirit and serving humanity as her guides, Hope has walked many paths flowing from & returning to the same source. Hands in the dirt, beating drumskin, brushing color across canvas, holding a newborn babe, or gathering the tribe; Hope thrives when steeped in raw, fresh energy pulsing around her. She is a visionary who sees the positive direction she wants the world to move toward, and takes the steps she can to manifest it. Touring Internationally and playing drums with Nahko and Medicine for the People since they were first heard of, Hope and Nahko shared a chemistry and frequency which catalyzed Medicine for the People to catapult from busking in the streets to performing in front of well over a hundred thousand people in a few short years. Nahko's music has a message that served as a call to the global conscious community for justice, truth talking, and positive social change. We were a part of a very special movement. Our music was bringing people together who were healing and wanting to make the world better. To Hope, that was one more step in her journey. Before that, Hope was a midwife, assisting over 450 births, primarily holistic home and water births, in Africa, Bali, and the US. Protecting the next generation has always been sacred and close to her heart. Birth is the moment a fresh soul enters the world and a woman transforms though an extraordinary rite of passage to become a mother. Hope has always felt honored to spend endless hours by a woman's side in her most primal and powerful birthing moments. The humility and awe in holding humanity in its first breaths have given Hope a deeper connection, compassion, and grounding in life. This has inspired her to work to raise awareness about families' birth options and the importance of their choices. Hope created Artemis Healing Arts education program and taught natural birth classes in Peru, Brazil, Bali and at Findhorn Ecovillage, in Scotland, as well as in the US. For Hope, the drum has always been a tool of spirit. Her first teacher was Babatunde Olatunje, who encouraged her to keep playing, and to always play with love. Drums have taken her around the world; Hope studied with teachers in Brazil, Peru, and West Africa. She shared the drum with children in India and taught rhythm to youth groups in Guatemala. Hope has taught over 2,500 students of all ages; she uses drums to facilitate empowering women's voices in workshops and confidence building with at-risk youth groups. Drums are a powerful connection to our ancestors. As ancient healers have always known, when infused with positive vibrations & intentions, drums are potent medicine. Hope's connection to nature began as a child and continues to flourish. Hope co-founded an urban non-profit permaculture education site, Tryon Life Community Farm. Hope coordinated the education program for years, teaching sustainability techniques such as natural building, permaculture gardening, social ecology, and the arts. Hope participated in the Global peace walk for 8 years. She later served for 3 years on the Board of Directors of Honor the Earth, the environmental justice non-profit protecting indigenous lands in North America, founded by Winona La Duke and supported by the Indigo Girls. Most recently, Hope has allied with the protectors of Mauna Kea, who currently have been standing in peaceful protest for months to prevent development on sacred indigenous land in Hawaii. Much of her passion is expressed in rich color and paint. Painting since she was a child, Hope has experimented with nearly every artistic medium she could get her hands on. As a result, many of her works are mixed media, often incorporating wood, feather, stone, metal, pencil, marker, watercolor, and acrylic - integrating them into delicate lines and powerful bold swaths of color to tell a story of women's power, strength and beauty. Creating images of empowered women has been a life long devotion; in response to being raised in a world where women have not been treated fairly or equally to men, and the earth has been ravaged due to this imbalance between masculine and feminine forces.. Her art is currently shown at the beautiful Wild Heartist Gallery in Hilo, Hawaii. Hope's Musical Journey continues forward, she has recorded 3 solo albums, and her sound has been described as 'hypnotic world beat with maternal soul'. Recently when Hope evacuated Hawaii in the 2018 lava flow, she temporarily relocated to the Blue Ridge Mountains where she began a new musical project, a trio of women called CedarWing, described as 'world soul folk with a groove'. CedarWing recently recorded their first album which has not yet been released! ...wait for it!! Hope co-founded MAnaFest music, arts & education festival in Hawaii in 2015, inspired by the transition from touring full time with Nahko, to giving birth to her daughter. While playing at festivals across the world, Hope recognized the imbalance of the number professional male performers to female. She is committed to helping women find their voice and share it!

Welcome to the very first episode of the Radiant Mix podcast, with Hope McGrath. Hope has a blog called Radiant Mix, and with the podcast she will be celebrating and talking about the bi-racial, multi-racial, and multi-cultural life and experience and she will also be sharing some really wonderful stories around this theme. On the show today, Hope discusses some of the fears she's had around bringing the stories that she intends to share on the podcast to light, and she also explains what motivated her to launch the podcast. Listen in today to find out more about Hope's belief in the radiance of the mixed experience, and how she intends to make the world a better place. Hope's father is from Burundi, a small, Central African country near Rwanda. Her mother is American, with Italian and German/Jewish heritage. Her parents got married in the 1960s when racial mixing was still quite taboo. So, Hope comes from what is now known as 'The Loving Generation', which is a label for kids with one black, and one white parent, who were born after the 1967 case, Loving vs. Virginia, where the US Supreme Court overturned Virginia's ban on interracial marriage. Although there is so much beauty to be found in mixing races and cultures, it's not without its challenges. Hope is living a multi-cultural life as a Brooklyn mamma raising a second-generation mix-kid, and she's also an auntie to a mix-kid. Her intention for Radiant Mix is to ignite positive change and maybe even open some eyes with the stories she will be sharing. Listen in today to find out more about Hope McGrath and her aspirations for the podcast. Show Highlights: The fears that Hope has around putting her stories out for public consumption. Why Hope eventually decided to launch Radiant Mix. For Hope, it's really all about radiating our light. How Hope managed to put her fears behind her. Hope talks about herself and where her family comes from. Where Hope discovered the title 'The Loving Generation'. Racial tension reached a fever-pitch in America recently, and this took a toll on Hope and her family. Hope hit her personal limit and decided to use her unique voice to aid in supporting anti-racism work through sharing a mixed perspective when the US president referred to Haiti and African nations as sh*thole countries. How Hope's hippy Mom inspired her to take her own path and expand minds and hearts, with her anti-racism work. When Hope grew up in Long Island, they were the only mixed family that she knew of in the area and the only mixed family attending the local public school. It was really hard for her to fit in while growing up. Hope has chosen to raise her daughter in a very different environment to the environment that she grew up in. Hope is doing her part, with Radiant Mix, to heal the racial divide. We all need to evolve from our judgment, bias, and prejudice. Why the conversation around racism has to continue.

I’ve met many entrepreneurs who are really drawn into the wellness beauty space. It’s an exciting, lucrative, and highly competitive niche. That’s why I’m so excited to introduce today’s guest, founder of H. Gillerman Organics, Hope Gillerman. H. Gillerman Organics is a line of aromatherapy essential oils. Hope curated this line after an ongoing battle with sciatica. After aromatherapy helped her tremendously, she developed her own line and launched in 2008. Hope has since been featured in the US, UK, and Japanese versions of Boat magazine, Dr. Oz The Good Life, The New York Times, Vanity Fair, Town & Country, Cosmopolitan, and Organic Spa. Notable Moments: How to stand fast in a cutthroat industry. What started H. Gillerman Organics. Hope’s background as a dancer in New York City. How the use of essential oils for therapeutics was her gateway into a revelation. Her journey from a private practice to creating organic essential oils. What it was like in 2008 when the economy crashed after her launch. The biggest challenge of working with a luxury product like essential oils. How Hope has scaled her company after 10 years. The unique challenges of the spa and luxury space.
GET ON THE DEEP, DOWN + DIRTY VIP LIST! Ever find yourself hoping and praying that something will work out in your favor? Maybe you're hoping a family function will go well, you get that job you've interviewed for, or perhaps you are hoping *that certain someone* you love will finally get clean and sober. And, although we've been taught that Hope is quite the virtue, I would argue that sometimes Hope destroys. (Yes, I actually just said that.) I think it's far less common to talk about the negative consequences of a life consumed in Hope. Now, don't get me wrong, I totally think Hope has it's place and can provide immense comfort, but I think it's worth examining when we use Hope as a crutch. As an excuse. As denial. Hoping that things work out but NOT making any solid plans of action. Hoping that your spouse will magically be what you need after expressing your needs over and over again and continually being let down... but, of course, hanging on to hope that he'll change. And let's not forget that when you place all your eggs in the Hope basket, you are likely giving all your power away to people and circumstances you can't control and ultimately you post-pone your happiness... You know, until X,Y, or Z happens... Because surely then, THEN you can be happy. Have a listen and see if you've been attached to Hope as a breath of inspiration and comfort or if you've allowed it to become a crutch of stagnation and self-sacrifice. Or... somewhere in-between. This pod explores: Why ‘Hope' isn't a strategy Think you're super hopeful? You may actually be in denial... find out how to tell the difference How ‘Hope' may be putting your happiness on hold How to know when it's time to be hopeful and when you're giving all your power away to shit you can't control DEEP, DOWN + DIRTY VIP LIST!

This week on the PRmoment Podcast I talk to co founder of Hope&Glory James Gordon-Macintosh. James went to Cambridge University and has then only really had two jobs in PR - first at Fishburn Hedges, the consumer side of which morphed into 77 PR, and then he set up Hope&Glory with Jo Carr in 2011. Hope&Glory has a fee income today of approx £5.5m. Here is a flavour of what James and I discuss: How his first job was as a journalist writing about Brazilian debt equities! Why, from very early in his career, he always wanted to start his own PR firm How, from very early on, he planned his career to position himself to be able to set up his own firm Why James yearned for a career in consumer PR while working for then corporate PR shop Fishburn Hedges How James became MD of consumer PR firm 77 PR having never really worked in consumer PR Why James got together with Jo Carr to launch Hope&Glory Why James didn’t believe Hope&Glory was a massive risk Why confidence in yourself and your partner is critical in setting up your own firm How Hope&Glory have retained the feel and image of a fresh consumer shop in London Why successful consultancies must develop a broad range of work How James learnt the importance of getting Hope&Glory’s work talked about How does James retain his creative edge? How does Hope&Glory structure its idea creation process? Why curiosity is a vital ingredient of creativity How creativity is not a process but the delivery of creativity is How James and Jo Carr have grown Hope&Glory from £0 to a fee income of £5.5m in under 7 years Why Hope&Glory turned down more work in 2017 than they pitched for Why pitching for new business is important for PR firms Why James’ partnership with Jo Carr has been so successful Why good ideas are not channel specific Why James is more interested in good ideas than creativity. Why the current rate of change in social and digital media is not as rapid and some people would like to believe How the biggest change for consumer PR and marketing firms is the sophistication of client expectations and process Why James doesn’t worry too much about Brexit Why PR firms are gaining market share at the margins of digital and social briefs but there is not yet a trend of PR agencies successfully winning briefs that previously went to advertising agencies What are James’ 2 favourite campaigns that he’s worked on
