Laura T. Ilea este doctor în filozofie și în literatură comparată, este conferențiar la Departamentul de literatură comparată al Universității Babeș-Bolyai din Cluj și publică în română și franceză studii literare, eseuri și proză. Am vorbit cu autoarea despre volumul ei de eseuri intitulat „Nomadism. Despre gândirea care devine corp” (Editura Litera). O carte atipică, un du-te-vino între viața trăită și viața gîndită, între filosofie și literatură, între diverse spații, între diverse vîrste, între corp și gîndire. O carte în care reflecția filozofică se împletește cu naturalețe cu cronica literară și cu descrierea unor episoade autobiografice, o carte de călătorie și, în egală măsură, o carte în care te poți opri pentru a reflecta, împreună cu autoarea și pentru a te adînci totodată în propriile căutări. Am întrebat-o pe autoare de ce a ținut să pună împreună dimensiuni atît de diferite, care, pînă la urmă, construiesc un întreg.Laura T. Ilea: „Cred că nu putem parcurge ceea ce se întîmplă în lumea noastră astăzi, la viteza accelerată căreia îi sîntem supuși și la schimbările incredibile cărora trebuie să le facem față, fără a încerca să punem laolaltă toate aceste niveluri. Fac o pledoarie pentru o condiție a mișcării, care e capabilă să surprindă aceste transformări. Sîntem în plină metamorfoză și această metamorfoză nu se încheie niciodată. Problema e întotdeauna cum s-o captezi, cum să o faci perceptibilă, cum s-o transmiți mai departe celorlalți ca să aibă sens. (...) Am avut peste timp senzația că multe dintre gînduri nu le dusesem pînă la capăt, pentru că nu trăisem, pentru că nu mă mișcasem, pentru că nu mă supusesem acestor transformări cărora m-am supus între timp.” „A gîndi înseamnă a vrea să spui lumea. A n-o lăsa să meargă înainte fără tine.” scrie Laura T. Ilea chiar la început. Iar aici „a gîndi” este sinonim cu „a scrie”. Cartea ei e și o căutare a sensului, o preocupare pentru cum și ce le lași moștenire celor mai tineri și pentru cum poate scrisul să fie un mecanism care generează sens. Laura T. Ilea: „Din eșecurile și ratările unor experiențe rămîne un rest și-acolo începe scrisul. (...) Scrisul e acest rest care vine, de multe ori, din ratările evenimentelor importante și recompune un sens, recompune întregul. Mintea noastră e inerent fabulatorie. Nu putem să sărim dintr-un punct într-altul, ci trebuie să găsim între ele acea axă care să le lege.” Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta interviul integral!

Ce impact au texte fundamentale ale feminismului, ajunse în limba română destul de tîrziu, după zeci sau chiar sute de ani, asupra literaturii și gîndirii? Există „scriitură feminină”? De ce condiții e nevoie ca ea să apară? Cum te raportezi ca autoare la reperele aduse în gîndire de filozoafe și teoreticiene? Am întrebat-o pe scriitoarea Laura T.

While running her own business, she had the pleasure of working alongside highly innovative and talented creatives throughout the industry and beyond. She noticed that many creatives are predominantly right-brained—wildly imaginative and expressive, but missing the necessary structure to create logical systems in their companies. In launching Jen Taylor Consulting, she made it her mission to help creatives build streamlined workflows, processes, and procedures so they can grow their business and spend their time on what they love most — their craft, their family, and their life. Jen's systematic knowledge of the inner workings of creative businesses has brought her to national stages and major industry publications. She has spoken at conferences like The Special Event, NACE Experience, and ILEA, as well as chapter-based events for NACE, The Wedding Network, ABC, and Western Washington University. Her expertise has also graced the pages of WeddingWire EDU, Special Events, Catersource, Book More Brides, Honeybook, and Wedding Planner Magazine. Outside of work, you can typically find her traveling throughout the West Coast or in Maui — the two markets her company serves for destination events. She also has a penchant for cooking and can often be found sipping on a refreshing glass of wine.

Imagine what it would be like to graduate from high school knowing that you never needed to find a job? That was the reality for sustainability entrepreneur Ilea Buffier, who graduated from high school with a property portfolio that made her financially independent.  But that's only the beginning of her story: Ilea has gone on to become a successful business owner and entrepreneur, working to promote sustainability through two business endeavours.  Ilea is the founder of Evalue8 Sustainability, an enviro tech company with the mission of making it easy for all organisations to measure and reduce their carbon footprint.  She is a Climate Active registered consultant and has been involved in the carbon accounting industry since 2005. She is also the owner of Ninetwofive Interiors, which is a dealer for Steelcase, the world's largest commercial furniture manufacturer.

Today's Guest: Dawn Abbott Dawn Abbott, CSEP is CEO and Owner of Fun Productions, Inc. which she began with her husband Tim in 1991. They started the business from the ground up and have changed, reinvented, and improved upon both the businesses and life through a huge number of ups and downs, trials, mistakes, and obstacles. Dawn started another entity as a passion project in 2010 and serves as the Owner and Creative Officer of that company as well, Connections Team Building & Training. Dawn served for 2 years as the Western Regional Vice-President for ILEA and has served 6 years on the ILEA Denver Board of Directors. She was inducted into the ILEA Denver Hall of Fame as well as Colorado Meeting and Events Magazine Hall of Fame. Dawn has also served on the Meetings Industry Council Board and on the Denver Small Business Development Center advisory board and The Colorado Meetings and Events magazine Advisory Board. Dawn has grown her small business from a tiny start up out of her home to a multi-office, 15,000 square foot warehouse and showroom with 15 full-time and 100+ part-time employees and multi-million-dollar revenues. Life took a turn in 2013 when the Abbotts had 3 businesses, 18- & 21-year-old sons, and a busy life. The accidental blessing of Dawn's pregnancy just when their empty nest was right around the corner started some big changes. Three months after Tim & Dawn's baby was born, the family and community lost Tim in an accident. Dawn was supposed to be slowing down, potentially selling a business, reconnecting with a husband of 25 years while getting used to an empty nest. Instead, she was a widow with an infant, 2 young sons who had lost their Dad, and businesses to run without a partner. She made very intentional and calculated decisions to find her passions, discover her strengths, and start choosing what her life was going to look like. Through the last 9 years Dawn has explored, read, gotten several certifications, joined mastermind groups, and dove deep into self-discovery and personal development. On this episode: Stacey is joined by entrepreneur and owner of Fun Productions Inc, Dawn Abbott for a discussion on the evolution of success, tragedy, and recovery. Key Takeaways -Your view of success will change over time. -Trusting your team is essential to your success. -Be crystal clear on your vision. Tweetable Quotes: "In the beginning, my version of success was paying bills and feeding my family. It was that simple." -Dawn Abbott "If we could start our definition of success the same way we end it; success would be so much more simple." -Stacey O'Byrne "There was a time where I realized I had to control my ego. I was running the business in a way where everything had to flow through me. It wasn't sustainable." -Dawn Abbott "If you're trying to build a business that is outside of your value system; you're going to hit that ceiling and eventually get a headache." -Stacey O'Byrne Dawn Abbott: https:www.funproductions.com Resources: Instagram: @thestaceyobyrne Schedule a 15 minute call with Stacey:http://pivotpointadvantage.com/talktostacey ( http://pivotpointadvantage.com/talktostacey) If you're ready to take yourself and your business to the next level and are interested in a coaching program that will get you there check out:http://pivotpointadvantage.com/iwantsuccess ( http://pivotpointadvantage.com/iwantsuccess)  Join an interactive environment to help you build the success you've always wanted with other like-minded, success-driven entrepreneurs, business owners, and sales professionals:https://facebook.com/groups/sellwithoutselling ( https://facebook.com/groups/sellwithoutselling)

The Coronavirus pandemic caused a shock to the grocery retail sector like none we've seen before. But with great challenges, often come great innovations. Technology now plays a bigger role in the average consumer's shopping experience than ever before and the changes we were all forced to make have opened the doors to even more innovation in the future. In this episode of the Table Talk podcast, Stefan Gates is joined by two experts to look at how technology has altered the grocery shopping landscape, and how it could shape its future too. They look at the biggest technological successes in the sector, as well as the biggest failures - the big winners and losers of the past few years. Will QR codes still play a key role a decade from now? How can mobile apps transform the shopping experience? Will automation become the norm? And what could all of the above mean for employment, data protection, and the price of food? Will blockchain develop to become the backbone of the grocery retail sector? Or will it be left looking like little more than a broken promise? Will the Metaverse become the new digital hypermarket? Or will it be consigned to the trash can? And which technological advances will we and won't we still be talking about in 10 years' time? Mike Watkins, Head of Retailer and Business Insight, Nielsen IQ Mike is Head of Retailer and Business and Insight for Nielsen IQ in the UK and is responsible for commercial development with food, non-food and e-commerce retailers. With over 30 year's retail experience, he is a lead contributor of thought leadership and regularly shares his viewpoints on the `State of the Nation' with the media and at Conferences. As a member of the Nielsen IQ Thought Leadership team, he supports retailer, manufacturer and financial services clients with retail, business and shopper insight for Europe. Mike is also a member of the KPMG/Ipsos Retail Think Tank. Will Broome, CEO & Founder, Ubamarket Will started his career marketing Musical Theatre Productions in the USA. On his return to the UK, he joined one of the world's leading PR Agencies, Ketchum Inc, where he managed the PR and live events for London Fashion Week, Wonderbra and Wrangler Jeans.  He broke out on his own to set up one of the live event industry's original ‘dot com' tech successes and became one of the youngest UK Presidents of the International Live events association (ILEA).  His passion for pioneering tech solutions led him to the retail industry where, for the last six years, Will has been immersed in research and development. The result is the launch of Ubamarket.

Event Tech Talks' episode 3, series 2 sees host Adam Parry talking to Joel Olandesca, creator/co-founder of the self-explanatory SOS Charging Solutions and, topically, SOS WebAR, which is a browser route to immersive augmented reality and all its commercial potential.  With a background in mobile technology, marketing and the money side of the events world, along with prominent positions at the ILEA, Joel Olandesca is another perfect fit for the programme. Talking from his Calgary base, where it's -25°c, incidentally, Joel fields Adam's quickfire ‘who are you' questions before digging into what augmented reality means for the events industry, how it's used, how SOS is working with clients to integrate AR activations, what the future holds for the technology and more besides.

Today we are joined by Jen Taylor to discuss some of the most important things for your business, the unsexy parts of business, the Systems for Success. About our Guest: Jennifer Taylor is the owner and founder of Taylor'd Event Group, a leading event planning company that serves local and destination clients in Washington State and Maui, HI. She is also the principal of Jen Taylor Consulting, a consulting firm that works with creative businesses of all sizes to implement streamlined workflows and organized systems to find more time and space for business growth and personal development. Owner and founder of Taylor'd Events, Jennifer Taylor carries over 15 years of wedding planning and has earned a wealth of knowledge throughout her career. While running her own business, she had the pleasure of working alongside highly innovative and talented creatives throughout the industry and beyond. She noticed that many creatives are predominantly right-brained—wildly imaginative and expressive, but missing the necessary structure to create logical systems in their companies. In launching Jen Taylor Consulting, she made it her mission to help creatives build streamlined workflows, processes, and procedures so they can grow their business and spend their time on what they love most — their craft, their family, and their life. Jen's systematic knowledge of the inner workings of creative businesses has brought her to national stages and major industry publications. She has spoken at conferences like The Special Event, NACE Experience, and ILEA, as well as chapter-based events for NACE, The Wedding Network, ABC, and Western Washington University. Her expertise has also graced the pages of WeddingWire EDU, Special Events, Catersource, Book More Brides, Honeybook, and Wedding Planner Magazine. Outside of work, you can typically find her traveling throughout the West Coast or in Maui — the two markets her company serves for destination events. She also has a penchant for cooking and can often be found sipping on a refreshing glass of wine.

When is it the right time to hire an employee versus contract workers?  Does a Business Plan have to be written?  These questions and many more are answered on today's podcast, with special guest Michelle Loretta With a degree in accounting, it seemed like Michelle had her career laid out for her when she began working in the corporate world at companies like Deloitte and Coach. It wasn't until she started a stationery business in 2004 that she discovered what many already knew at the time: The events industry was chockful of incredibly talented creatives, but few had the business experience to truly understand the strategy behind running a sustainable company.After spending a few years immersed in the industry, Michelle started a blog in 2009 aimed at educating fellow event professionals in the business of weddings. Be Sage Consulting quickly took off as it was one of the first B2B resources specifically tailored to creatives who wanted to become better entrepreneurs. Since then, her business has developed into a consultancy, and she now works one-on-one with event pros to adjust and redefine their business strategies. Be Sage Consulting also hosts an annual Be Sage Conference, which welcomes creative entrepreneurs from around the world for a weeklong mastermind on all things business.Michelle was named one of the Top 1000 Event Professionals by BizBash Magazine in 2019. Her thought leadership has carried over to her professional speaking circuit, where she has been asked to speak at numerous national conferences including The Special Event, WeddingWire World, NACE Experience, POSH Retreat, ABC, and BizBash Live, as well as local chapter meetings for WIPA and ILEA. She is also a regular contributor to Wedding Business Magazine and has been featured on Planners Lounge, WeddingIQ, Aisle Planner, and countless other industry publications. Behind The Veil Host: Keith Willard, CWP - Keith Willard EventsBehind The Veil Co-HostMarci Guttenber CPCE - An Affair To Remember by MarciBrooke Logan Stoner - Keith Willard EventsSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/BehindTheVeilShow)

One of the most popular episodes of The Wedding Business Solutions Podcast is “The Difference Between Branding and Your Brand.” In that episode I talked about how your brand is what people say about you after they've experienced what you do. That doesn't mean that branding isn't important, it's just different than your brand. So, to complete the topic I invited my friend, and fellow WeddingPro Educator, Kaleigh Wiese to come on and discuss branding, which is her expertise. Kaleigh Wiese is an endless creator, visual branding educator, entrepreneur, and public speaker. She has worked her entire career helping creatives find their visual voice. Her focus remains on branding and providing resources + services to help small businesses share their companies uniqueness visually. She also is a longtime event business owner, founding Méldeen in 2008, a luxury event branding and paper goods company focused on designing unique touch-points throughout event experiences.Through her work, she has been featured in The Huffington Post, The New York Times, Enterpreneur, Fortune, Martha Stewart Weddings, Grace Ormonde and has shared trends at Wedding Pro Workshops (The Knot & Wedding Wire), Wedding MBA, WIPA, ILEA and other niche creative workshops across the country offering tips for growing your business through visual marketing. In 2021, she continues her primary focus of sharing her message of strategic brand techniques across the country through one-on-one brand audits, online courses, free webinars and her membership community Brand Magic Society.When she's not on the go, you can find her at home in Austin, Texas experimenting in the kitchen, with a book in hand or boating with her husband, Michael, and their two rescue pups, Charlie and Jack.For her free color theory guide, other design-focused resources and upcoming dates you can visit www.KaleighWiese.comSocial Handle: @gokaleigh: www.instagram.com/gokaleighIf you have any questions about anything in this, or any of my podcasts, or have a suggestion for a topic or guest, please reach out directly to me at Alan@WeddingBusinessSolutions.com or visit my website Podcast.AlanBerg.comPlease be sure to subscribe to this podcast and leave a review (thanks, it really does make a difference).
