This week on the Modern Retail Podcast, co-hosts Gabi Barkho and Melissa Daniels get into the news of President Donald Trump signaling the potential for higher tariffs on the furniture sector, and what it means for companies in the space. Then they get into the trend of travelers deciding to go to Europe for luxury shopping sprees in order to scoop up designer goods without any tariff-related cost increases. Then for this week's featured segment (16:30), Daniels is joined by Sonia Lapinsky of Alix Partners to recap how consumers spent this summer. They get into the nuances of deal-seeking behavior at a time when people are still adjusting to high inflation and increased prices, and how to best capture a fickle consumer. Lapinsky unpacks topics like: why even customers who trade down care about brand, how pulled-forward demand could impact Q4 and how brands can navigate the dual challenge of increasing costs and a highly promotional environment

This week, I welcome back Rob Henderson, the social psychologist, author, and commentator who coined the concept of luxury beliefs: ideas that confer status on the upper class while inflicting real costs on lower-income communities. Rob was last here in early 2024 discussing his memoir, Troubled: A Memoir of Foster Care, Family, and Social Class, which chronicles his journey through California's foster system to the Air Force, and onward to Yale and Cambridge. In this conversation, we explore what he's been thinking about since the book's release—particularly the so-called “mating crisis,” why many young people delay or avoid partnerships and family, and what that means for the future. We also dissect the emergence of Zohran Mamdani, the New York City mayoral hopeful who, according to Rob (and I would concur), embodies luxury beliefs in action. Finally, Rob answers questions from Substack readers. Rob will be a speaker at our Unspeakeasy Small Gathering for Big Ideas weekend, October 11-12 in New York City. Programming and ticketing info here. GUEST BIO Rob Henderson is the author of Troubled: A Memoir of Foster Care, Family, and Social Class. He grew up in foster homes in Los Angeles and in the rural town of Red Bluff, California. After enlisting in the U.S. Air Force at the age of seventeen, he subsequently attended Yale on the GI Bill and was then awarded the Gates Cambridge Scholarship to study at the University of Cambridge, where he obtained a PhD in psychology in 2022. He is currently a Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, and his Substack newsletter is sent each week to more than 70 thousand subscribers. HOUSEKEEPING

For our final episode recorded live at the CommerceNext Growth show, we welcome two visionary leaders from Tapestry, the global house of brands that includes Coach and Kate Spade: Pooja Chandiramani, VP Global Media Strategy & Planning, Marketing Analytics, Operations and Transformation, and Avinash Kaushik, Brand Strategy & Marketing Transformation.Pooja and Avinash unpack Tapestry's ongoing transformation, which embeds analytics as a core pillar of brand growth. For Coach in particular, analytics isn't just incremental—it's a complete transformation journey. By using data to generate insights that directly drive business impact, Tapestry ensures marketing investments are accountable, measurable, and tied to outcomes.Avinash, a globally recognized thought leader and author, explains how Tapestry embraces intent-centric marketing to connect authentically with consumers. Moving beyond the outdated “accessible luxury” positioning, the company has shifted toward "expressive luxury"—a modern framework that reflects values-driven, authentic consumer engagement, particularly resonant with younger audiences.The conversation dives into the cultural foundations necessary for analytics to thrive. Avinash emphasizes that “culture is more important than data,” crediting Tapestry's CEO Joanne Crevoiserat and senior leadership for creating an environment where data can challenge assumptions and guide decisions. This culture enables bold experiments, including measuring the incrementality of brand marketing—one of the toughest questions in retail.Pooja highlights how creative pre-testing has become a critical unlock. By partnering with Human Made Machine, Tapestry tests campaigns with real audiences before investing media spend. This approach ensures that creative—responsible for up to 70% of marketing impact—delivers measurable results in driving brand awareness and incremental sales. It's a cultural shift, moving from subjective opinions about creative to decisions grounded in data.The episode also explores the role of AI and machine learning in accelerating agility, simplifying decision-making frameworks, and enabling global scalability. Both leaders stress that outcomes-based planning—rather than activity-based planning—keeps Tapestry aligned with its ambitious growth goals.

This week on the Luxury of Self-Care, I'm sharing how I've been tackling my to-do list without letting it control me. Instead of drowning in “I still have to do this… and that,” I've started orchestrating my tasks in the "Notes" app so I can see everything at once and fit it into my schedule with intention—no more anxiety spirals, just steady progress.And because life always throws in surprises, I also had to squeeze in an unexpected vet trip when our pomsky, Meiko developed an infected anal gland (yep, you read that right).

Luxury isn't about saying yes to everything. It isn't the crowded calendar, the endless obligations, or the forced commitments that leave you drained. The new luxury is about discernment, alignment, and the elegant no... boundaries that protect your energy without guilt or apology. In this episode, I'm breaking down how to practice the elegant no so you can curate a life that feels expansive, intentional, and joy-filled. We'll talk… • Why saying no feels so hard, and how to reframe it as an act of self-worth. • How the French philosophy of restraint and refinement ties into living beautifully. • Real-world scenarios and scripts for saying no to friends, clients, and even family,  gracefully and without ever using the word “no.” • How fewer, deeper yeses create more space for the everyday moments of joie de vivre. By the end of this episode, you'll see that boundaries aren't barriers, they're the foundation of living well, slowly, and luxuriously. Because your yes means more when you've mastered the elegant no.   Useful Resources:

In this week's episode of the Artist Academy podcast, we're diving into budget vs. luxury pricing language—and how the words you choose can either draw in high-value clients or unintentionally invite bargain-hunters. If you want to repel low-paying clients, avoid words like cheap, affordable, budget, quick fix. Replace them with words like investment, statement, signature, premium, transformative. What you don't want to use if aiming for high-paying customers: Quick and inexpensive way to add color. Murals are cheaper than professionally installed wallpaper! I can beat other artists' prices. Murals starting as low as $300. I'll make it work for you no matter what your budget is. We can keep it simple and affordable. Wording that positions you as a premium creative professional: Custom artwork designed to transform your space. Luxury murals that elevate environments and leave lasting impressions. One-of-a-kind, hand-painted murals tailored exclusively to your brand. A permanent investment in your space's identity and value. High-impact statement pieces that capture attention and admiration. Museum-quality finishes with durability that lasts for decades. Each design is created in collaboration with you, ensuring a truly bespoke result. Transform your blank walls into landmark destinations. I create immersive, large-scale art experiences that inspire and impress. This isn't just paint on a wall — it's an asset that adds cultural and financial value to your property. Instead of “cheap” → say “accessible entry point” (if you must talk about lower price).Instead of “affordable” → say “scalable depending on vision.”Instead of “decorate” → say “transform” or “elevate.”Instead of “price” → say “investment.”

This week's Totally Wholesome Not Dirty Podcast is a solo episode—just me, unfiltered, a little unhinged, and talking about everything from figs to fitness to fighting nicotine cravings. I share the chaos of dealing with a nosy neighbor obsessed with my fig tree, rant about self-checkout horror stories, and even question whether poison ivy is just a scam we all believed as kids. Somewhere in between, I spiral into my thoughts on Trader Joe's cult vibes, bidets, sex work meets self work, and yes… why I once threw a lemon at the wall.

You'll hear Oscar on the pitfalls of auctions, the dangers of sending watches back to manufacturers for servicing, and the challenges of spotting counterfeit pieces. They also explore the dynamics of watch brands like Hublot, Patek Philippe, and Rolex, discussing their market strategies and the impact of limited editions Oscar REVEALS: High-end auctions and vintage watch sales are rife with scams "Frankenstein" watches, which are modified with non-original parts Authorised dealers often require customers to purchase multiple watches or jewellery to qualify for the opportunity to buy highly sought-after models. Brands like Hublot and IWC have faced criticism for overproducing limited editions The importance of brand reputation and how it can impact resale value in the watch market. Authorised dealers may struggle to sell certain models, while grey market prices can be much lower than retail. BEST MOMENTS "The biggest scam in the watch market, I would say, is in auctions. If you don't know what you're doing with vintage watches, you can be scammed for millions." "A Frankenstein watch is when original parts are added to a watch to make it something that it originally wasn't." "I think it's actually suicide to send it back to the brands, especially if you're not really in with them." "Hublot, the fall off needs to be studied because essentially all that went wrong... is they started making limited editions, not even for football teams, but for players who had left the teams." "I believe that Rolex are that for watches. I also believe that they're the best value."

Gen Z is ditching the smart watches in favor of very expensive luxury watches. Hey Gen Z...WHY!?

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Christopher Hill, Founder of Hands Up Holidays. Christopher takes us inside his journey from a career in finance to launching a travel company focused on eco-luxury family volunteer vacations. In our conversation, Christopher shares the story behind Hands Up Holidays, and we discuss the company's focus on family and ethical travel with a holistic approach that ensures each journey leaves a positive impact on local communities and their visitors. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Christopher built Hands Up Holidays by combining luxury travel with meaningful volunteer experiences Why personal interaction with local communities and hands-on volunteering create transformative travel experiences for both guests and host communities How Christopher creates consistency across marketing and delivery How Christopher's business model evolved to focus on families and why inspiring the next generation of world changers has become a core part of his mission Why building strong, direct relationships with local communities and ground partners was essential before launching the business How Hands Up Holidays curates unique, customizable trips that blend giving back with sightseeing and adventure Hands Up Holidays' collaborations with nonprofits, DMCs, travel agents, and brands like TOMS, and why shared values are key to their effective partnerships The Foundation of Responsible Tourism Launching Hands Up Holidays wasn't a matter of spinning up a website and sending travelers abroad. Christopher spent two years building relationships with communities worldwide. He sought firsthand knowledge—not just through professional networks, but by traveling, listening, and consulting directly with prospective partners. His approach was, and still is, to ask communities what they need, ensuring that volunteer efforts are genuinely beneficial and welcomed. Luxury, Family Focus, and Holistic Sustainability Christopher identifies three powerful differentiators that have contributed to Hands Up Holidays' success: Luxury with a Purpose: Targeting high-end travelers with a philanthropy-based model, the company opens doors for those seeking to give back without sacrificing comfort. Hands Up Holidays redefines the luxury experience to include ethical action. Family-Focused Experiences: Although originally aimed at professionals, Hands Up Holidays soon shifted focus to catering to families, especially those eager to foster gratitude and a sense of global citizenship in their children. Holistic Sustainability: Their approach isn't just about volunteering; it encompasses eco-friendly lodging, organic and local food, energy-efficient travel, and exclusively local guides. This creates a well-rounded, responsible travel experience. Collaboration and Alignment Collaboration—with communities, nonprofits, destination management companies (DMCs), and even other travel agencies—is central to Hands Up Holidays' success. Christopher shares examples from major partnerships, like working with TOMS Shoes and a skateboard company to create impactful experiences in South Africa. The key ingredient for successful collaborations is shared values, and Christopher highlights that the most fruitful partnerships arise from aligned missions.

Adding touches of luxury to our homes keeps us inspired and interested in our day-to-day routines. Top 10 Simple Ways to Add Luxury to Your Home1. Create a Spa-Like Bathroom Experience Transform your bathroom into a peaceful retreat by adding elements that evoke luxury and relaxation. Consider installing a rain showerhead or a deep soaking tub. Invest in plush towels and a soft bath mat, and don't forget a few indulgent products like high-end bath oils or body scrubs. Soft, ambient lighting and candles will create a soothing atmosphere, making it feel like your very own personal spa.2. Use Rich Fabrics Like Velvet and Silk for Curtains and Pillows To instantly elevate the feel of any room, incorporate luxurious fabrics like velvet, silk, or linen. These materials add a tactile richness that is both opulent and comfortable. Consider velvet throw pillows, silk curtains, or a plush velvet throw for the sofa. These fabrics help to bring sophistication to both modern and traditional interiors.3. Install Dimmer Switches for Softer Lighting Lighting plays a huge role in creating a luxurious atmosphere. Install dimmer switches in your living and dining rooms, as well as in your bedroom, to adjust the light levels depending on the mood. Soft, diffused lighting is more flattering and relaxing. Pair with elegant table lamps or chandeliers to add both form and function.4. Upgrade Your Bed with Luxury Linens and Pillows The bed is the centerpiece of any bedroom, and upgrading it can make your entire room feel like a five-star hotel suite. Opt for high-thread-count sheets, preferably in natural fabrics like Egyptian cotton or linen. Add a plush duvet or comforter, and layer your bed with quality throw pillows and a velvet or cashmere blanket for extra comfort. Don't forget to invest in a luxurious mattress topper for added support and softness.5. Make Your Home Smell Luxurious A signature scent can instantly elevate your home's ambiance. Invest in high-quality candles with warm, sophisticated scents like sandalwood, jasmine, or amber. Scent diffusers with essential oils are also a great option for continuous fragrance. For an extra touch, consider using luxury room sprays or incense to create an inviting, sophisticated atmosphere.6. Add Gold or Metallic Accents to Your Decor Gold, brass, and other metallic finishes can add a touch of glamour and sophistication to any space. Consider adding gold picture frames, metallic trays, or brass lamps to your living room or entryway. Small metallic accents can help elevate a neutral space without overwhelming it, bringing a sense of opulence and timeless style.7. Create a Stylish Home Bar or Coffee Station A well-curated home bar or coffee station can be a functional yet luxurious addition to your home.
