In this heartfelt conversation, Susan shares her journey from being "the tiniest one in the room" who had to find her voice early to becoming a powerhouse in the world of social impact.

Listen as she recounts her path from waitressing to fund her year abroad in Denmark, to working at USA Today, to eventually launching McPherson Strategies at age 48 without any formal business training.

Unwritten Style: How Street Influence Frees Us from Fashion Rules with Dawn Pedersen, Co-Founder & Creative Director at Trendzine/TRENDZOOM In this episode, I'm joined by Dawn Pedersen—trend forecaster, co-founder of Trendzine, and Creative Director at TRENDZOOM. Dawn's expertise is in reading the cultural landscape: she draws inspiration from street style, mood, and the echoes of past trends to predict where fashion is heading next. We dive into the powerful influence of what real people are wearing on the street and how this collective mood shapes not just trends, but how we all feel about getting dressed. As Dawn explains, street style has become a global language of self-expression, reflecting shifts in music, art, technology, and culture. Fashion is no longer dictated by magazines or the runway alone—instead, inspiration is everywhere, and anyone can find their people and their style online. We discuss the liberating shift away from being told what we “should” wear, and how digital communities give us the freedom to curate a wardrobe that feels authentic and personal. This episode is packed with insight on building a wardrobe that reflects who you are, not just what's “in.” We also go on a journey through fashion history, from Coco Chanel's revolutionary impact in the 1920s—freeing women from restrictive clothing and championing comfort and self-expression—to the present day, where every era's mood can be recognized in a single photograph. We explore how fashion is always a product of its time and place, influenced by everything from film to politics to street culture. Key Topics: How street style predicts and reflects the collective mood The end of being “slaves to trends” and the rise of authentic personal style The digital revolution in finding style inspiration and community Fashion as a mirror of cultural, social, and artistic movements The ongoing legacy of icons like Coco Chanel in shaping how we dress today Whether you're a fashion lover, a trend-watcher, or just want to feel more at home in your own wardrobe, this episode will help you see your clothes—and your influences—in a whole new light.

Please find future episodes on your podcast player, searching for Product Mastery Now or at https://productmasterynow.com/mastery/. Blog Talk Radio is ending in Jan, 2025. The podcast is all about helping people involved in innovation and managing products become more successful, grow their careers, and STANDOUT from their peers. About the Episode: In my recent conversation with Doug Hall, master of turning chaos into clarity, we explored how product managers and innovation leaders can break free from reactive problem-solving and create more value through proactive innovation. Doug shared that the average manager wastes 3.5 hours daily fixing problems, with 75% of issues stemming from broken systems rather than employee mistakes. Even more concerning, products typically lose 50% of their innovative value during development as unique ideas get compromised to fit existing systems. Doug offered practical solutions through three powerful frameworks that can transform how teams approach innovation and problem-solving. Key Topics: How to define problems effectively using the Yellow Card method, inspired by military Commander's Intent principleCreating solutions through structured “Create Sessions” that leverage stimulus, diversity of thought, and fear reductionSix types of innovation stimulus, including patent mining and wisdom mining from academic sourcesUsing the Deming Cycle (Plan-Do-Study-Act) to systematically reduce risks in product developmentTransforming organizational culture by focusing on system improvement rather than individual blame

Despite his success, he questioned the significance of his athletic accomplishments. Each victory brought the thought, “Is this it?” Battling injuries, he slid into painkiller addiction, battled depression, and attempted suicide. He was a champion on the outside but broken within. It wasn't until a series of circumstances led him to live among the Pygmy people—some of the most marginalized on earth—that he found true purpose: helping others. “My career was to fight against people, but my calling was to fight for people." Now, he helps others generate impact through their work and community. ‘The Big Pygmy' returned to the ring with purpose, founding Fight for the Forgotten (FFTF). FFTF has provided >52,000 indigenous people with access to clean drinking water, replanted thousands of trees, acquired >3,000 acres of land in the name of the tribe and helped 1,800 people out of slavery and into freedom. Current projects include housing, education, healthcare and sustainable livelihoods through community empowerment.
In this engaging episode of The Real State, Alex Norman and Jamie Blonde dive into the fascinating intersection of location, culture, and driving behavior. How does traffic reflect a city's personality? Why does driving in Miami feel like a chaotic cultural blend, while Los Angeles drivers seem to embrace gridlock as a way of life? From New York's honking culture to the symphony of horns in India, the hosts explore how location shapes not only how we drive but also how we live. The conversation touches on technological advances like Waze, autonomous vehicles, and electric cars, and how these innovations are changing the way we navigate our cities—sometimes for better, sometimes for worse. They also debate the societal and personal impacts of congestion pricing and traffic technology, weaving in anecdotes about the chaos of Sao Paulo, the laid-back commutes of LA, and the competitive nature of navigating New York. Whether you're stuck in traffic or cruising freely, this episode will make you think differently about the roads we share and the cultures they reflect. Tune in for a mix of humor, insights, and thought-provoking discussion on the ever-evolving world of driving. Key Topics: How traffic culture varies globally and reflects societal norms The role of technology in shaping driving behavior Autonomous vehicles, urban planning, and the psychology of movement Personal stories from Miami, New York, Los Angeles, and beyond Stay safe on the road—and maybe don't honk too much in Miami!
