In this episode of Your Dream Business Podcast, host Teresa Heath‑Wareing talks with Lauren Davis, a marketing & brand consultant, about how public speaking can boost your business. Lauren shares her journey into speaking, offers a framework for deciding whether to say “yes” to unpaid gigs, compares keynotes vs. workshops, and shows how to make the most of events (think networking, pro photos/videos). A big emphasis is put on making sure speaking opportunities align with your values and business goals. Key Takeaways Choose Speaking Gigs That Align with Your Values & Goals Not every opportunity is worth taking. Lauren emphasizes evaluating engagements based on how well they match your personal values, the audience, and your long‑term business vision. Saying yes to misaligned opportunities can dilute your brand and effort. Weigh the Difference Between Keynotes, Workshops, Paid & Unpaid Gigs Workshops and keynotes serve different purposes. Workshops might offer more interaction, learning, or depth, while keynotes often give broader visibility. Similarly, unpaid gigs aren't always “bad”—they can offer exposure, networking, or content. But you need criteria (audience, promotion, platform) to decide whether the cost in time/energy is worth it. Maximize What Each Event Gives You Treat speaking engagements not just as “one‑off gigs” but as opportunities. Get professional photos/videos, leverage them for marketing, build relationships with other attendees/speakers, and ensure organizers promote you well. These extras amplify the value of the speaking moments.

Cookie Washington, born in Morocco, is a fourth-generation needle worker, award winning textile artist and guest curator of the African American Fiber Arts Exhibit which is part of the North Charleston Arts Festival. Her passion for fiber art is infectious and she comes from a long line of sewists dating back to her great-grandmother. She's been selected as one of 44 master quilters to create a quilt for Barak Obama's inauguration and has been featured in documentary films. (2:28) At four years old, Cookie was paid 50 cents by her grandfather for sewing her first Barbie dress - she shares this story. In addition, she talks about the female lineage in her family that inspired, mentored, and encouraged her sewing. She also talks of her sewing plans for her three granddaughters. (7:00) Then, Cookie transitioned to fabric art during a difficult time in her life - she shares this story.  A Communion of Sprits; African American Quilters, Preservers, and Their Stories by Roland Freeman created a tipping point in her creativity and she opens up about how this happened.(10:46) Cookie talks about her personal connection to the attack at Mother Emanuel Church and how she used her quilts to help heal the city. Her art to her is a meditative prayer.  (13:21) What's the Divine Feminine and what does it mean to her? She shares the meaning of this and how it led to her work with mermaids. (16:15) Cookie does a lot of curatorial art to foster introspection, communication and provide education. She walks us through her process for this, and how we can celebrate our sameness and be inquisitive about our differences. She shares stories about her work “A Dialog in Black and White” and how she believes her ministry is to bring people together. (10:25) “I want to make art that challenges people to feel. Art that makes them soar and annoys.” Cookie explains how this drives her creations. She also talks about Henrietta Lacks and “The Immortal Cell” and the art she created to celebrate this amazing woman. She also talks about how she artistically captures the physicality of Serena and Venus Williams, and Simone Biles in her work. (32:58) In addition to her work, she donates her time and talent to serve in many ways which she tells us about. She also shares news about her current project “Quilted Hugs”.(39:20) Cookie believes that there is a shift in the art community and sewing that is moving from utilitarian out of necessity to art that celebrates. She explains her position on this shift invoking Bisa Butler and Michelangelo! (46:00) Right before the podcast was recorded, Cookie had the “Best Weekend Ever” in her curating the exhibit “Celebrating Black Mermaids from Africa to America”. This is a wonderful story here about the genesis of this exhibit of 150 pieces and the effect is had on the art community. She talks of the contributions of Dr. Lauren Davis and Dr. Henry Drewal to this event. The event exceeded her expectations and dreams! (56:47) What's her dream?   To keep encouraging people to quilt. She will move forward with this at The Kindred Spirits Conference. She also has a show coming up in November where she'll display her Quilted Hug project.

Hey y'all, The strange, gore fest franchise that is Evil Dead began with a small independent film that grew into a franchise phenomena from a cult following. Now the fifth film in the franchise is out. For this week's episode, and in their final episode as hosts, Lauren & Paul review Evil Dead Rise. They start with their own pasts with the franchise before delving deeper into the film. They talk about what makes an Evil Dead movie, what this one does with the franchise fodder, and how well it creeped us out. Lastly, Paul and Lauren are leaving as permanent hosts of the Film Buds as Henry returns.

Hey y'all, For those of y'all not in the know, the recent merger of Warner and Discovery led to not only a further consolidation of a relatively cramped market, but also the loss of completed film and television. Following the merger, the company, under the direction of David Zaslav, multiple projects in various stages of post-production were canceled and used for tax write off purposes, the most prominent of which was Batgirl. However, one of those films leaked. Yes folks, last weekend a completed animated Scooby Doo film, Scooby Doo and Krypto Too, leaked online. So naturally we had to talk about and review this never to be released film. Was it bad enough to warrant cancellation? Was it secretly a tie-in to the now dead Snyder-verse (It does not)? What's our favorite Scooby Doo crossover? We'll answer all these questions and more in our review. Show Open Our Thoughts on Scooby DooScooby Doo and Krypto Too ReviewTotal Runtime - 00:45:05Thanks as always for listening.

Happy Black History Month, y'all, This week we bring our cinematic celebration to a close, but we do it with MUSIC!Music is a core, human experience, but that doesn't mean that music history is immune to the reality of human history. While many were enjoying rock'n'roll, few were honoring or even aware of its relation to the Black community as White artists and disc jockeys profited off the sound. For our review this week, we watched the recorded Broadway show, Memphis. Boasting a predominantly Black cast, and about the history of rock'n'roll on radio, we'll discuss how well the show honors the history. Furthermore, we'll discuss the different ways stage can be used to tell a story, how well this recording works, and more. Thank you for joining us this week, and be sure to check out last week's episode.Enjoy y'all, The BudsBe a Friend to the Film Buds:thefilmbuds.comThe Buds on PatreonThe Buds on bandcamp@filmbuds on Twitter@thefilmbudspodcast on InstagramPaul's Letterboxd Click this link and get some sweet movie related art while also supporting the show.

Hey y'all,Black representation in film has a long and complicated past that extends back to the beginning of Film. Blackface, racial disparity behind the scenes, and more all made it difficult for accurate Black representation by Black artists. And in the wake of the Civil Rights movement came a subgenre all its own, Blaxploitation. The style of filmmaking taps into many of the zeitgeist elements of the 1970s, including sex and violence on screen, and even included Horror. For this week's episode we're looking at the Blaxploitation Horror Blacula. We'll discuss the tropes of Dracula, how they work in this new setting, and review Blacula. We thank you for joining us this week, and be sure to check out last week's episode. Enjoy y'all,The BudsBe a Friend to the Film Buds:thefilmbuds.comThe Buds on PatreonThe Buds on bandcamp@filmbuds on Twitter@thefilmbudspodcast on InstagramPaul's Letterboxd Click this link and get some sweet movie related art while also supporting the show.

Hey y'all,January-March is in many ways a little bit of a nebulous time of year. Summer Blockbusters haven't started, it isn't Holiday Movie season, and many of your serious award contenders have yet to come out. So what are we supposed to talk about? The same thing we did last year: Black History and Excellence my dudes. Throughout history, but even in the last year alone, there have been incredible, powerful, transcendent pieces of art that shaped generations of artists and cinema lovers. So all month long, we're celebrating. To begin, we're reviewing 2022's The Woman King. The film is based on a true story and was considered an awards favorite. We'll discuss how well it handles that history, whether it was a true contender or an Award Bait flick, and more. Beyond our review, we'll also be discussing the new changes at Netflix, as well as James Gunn's big DC Studios announcement. And of course, be sure to check out last week's episode. Thank y'all,The Buds

Hey y'all,The career of a filmmaker is an interesting thing. Some are like one hit wonders. They make something great and vanish. But some endure. One of America's most prolific directors, Steven Spielberg has been working for almost 50 years, defining part of America's zeitgeist with massive blockbusters and sweeping historical epics. But how did we get here? All month long, we'll be reviewing Spielberg's work, and this week is his first domestic theatrical release. Today we are reviewing The Sugarland Express, followed by a discussion on the film's legacy. We also discuss the current awards season, and how Spielberg fits into the current awards race.Thanks as always for listening and be sure to check out last week's episode.Enjoy y'all,The BudsYou can follow Nick on his IG, Twitter, Discussing Film, Knotfest, or personal website.You can follow Mad and her work on her Instagram, Twitter, and personal website. Be a Friend to the Film Buds:thefilmbuds.comThe Buds on PatreonThe Buds on bandcamp@filmbuds on Twitter@thefilmbudspodcast on InstagramPaul's Letterboxd Click this link and get some sweet movie related art while also supporting the show.

We have to keep it local, keep it real, and focus on the issues that matter. I explain why Republicans have demonstrated they will not change in the majority. Instead, we need a new type of candidate, running with a new message. To demonstrate this, I'm joined by Lauren Davis, a candidate for Dallas County judge who just won a primary against the GOP establishment. She is a regular mom and business owner who ran because her kids were bullied by school officials for not wearing masks. She is a new mold for conservative candidates running on a new message. Her race is a microcosm of what we can be doing throughout the country, even in Democrat-leaning areas.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
