It's frustrating to put energy into campaigns that just don't land, especially when everyone seems to be shouting louder than the next brand. You try all the formulas, follow the trends, and still feel like you're missing something. There's a difference between being seen and being understood, and most marketing misses that.

Katie Gray, founder of Kinetic Marketing Communications, shares how smart strategy—not just flashy campaigns—drives business growth. She breaks down common marketing mistakes like chasing trends without a plan or failing to align messaging with business goals. Her firm connects expert talent with companies needing focused solutions, not one-size-fits-all approaches. She emphasizes that effective marketing starts with clarity, collaboration, and the right people. Her insights cut through the noise and get to what actually moves the needle. Stay tuned!

Send us a textImagine walking into a grocery store and seeing your name prominently displayed on a product lining the shelves. For most of us, that would be a remarkable moment. For the clients at St. John of God Community Services, it's a powerful affirmation of their value and contribution to society.Luke Barnes, Director of Marketing Communications and Entrepreneurial Programs for St, John of God Community Services, takes us behind the scenes of Holy Grounds Coffee, a social enterprise creating meaningful employment for adults with special needs. What began as a solution to inconsistent contract work has blossomed into a purpose-driven business where clients participate in every step of coffee production – from roasting beans to packaging the final product.The genius of Holy Grounds lies in its multilayered impact. Each coffee order creates multiple job opportunities, while every bag proudly displays the signatures of the clients who helped create it. "When they can walk into a store and see their name on a bag of coffee on the shelf – that's the special stuff," Barnes explains with palpable enthusiasm.This initiative embodies the 600-year-old philosophy of their namesake saint: "Do good for yourself by doing good for others." The organization doesn't just create jobs; they've thoughtfully constructed a supply chain of kindness. They source beans exclusively from ethical, often women-owned farms, ensuring their positive impact extends globally while creating dignified opportunities locally.Beyond coffee, St. John of God Community Services addresses community needs through innovative solutions like their mobile food pantry – a converted school bus bringing fresh produce and essential supplies directly to vulnerable populations. Rather than a typical handout model, they've designed a dignified shopping experience that preserves clients' agency and self-respect.What resonates most throughout our conversation is the organization's deep commitment to seeing people with special needs as whole individuals with capabilities to contribute, not just needs to be met. As Barnes poignantly reminds us, "Everybody can do a little bit of good every single day... those small things really add up."Ready to make a difference with your morning brew?

On this week's episode, Laura and Kevin sit down with Nandan Nayampally, the Chief Commercial Officer at Baya, to discuss the shifting landscape of intelligent computing and the hidden challenges behind AI innovation.Nandan kicks things off by demystifying what Baya actually does, solving the critical problem of data movement, a growing bottleneck that traditional compute-focused architectures can't keep up with. With a rich background that includes scaling Arm's processor business from $200M to billions and playing key roles at AMD, Amazon (Alexa), and neuromorphic AI startups like Brainchip and Tenstorrent, Nandan offers a unique perspective on where hardware truly sits at the heart of today's AI revolution. He unpacks one of the most misunderstood aspects of AI development: while flashy models grab the headlines, it's the hardware, and even more critically, how data flows across chips, that will define the next generation of intelligent systems. As he explains, we're moving from a compute problem to a data movement problem, and Baya is right at the center of that inflection point. Laura and Kevin also get Nandan's expert map of the chip landscape, from Nvidia's dominant position to Intel, Arm, AWS, and where Baya fits in. Spoiler alert: Baya isn't trying to out-muscle the big players but to fundamentally enhance and rethink architectures for a world driven by AI at scale.Nandan also talks about the next big frontier as a hybrid between cloud and edge AI, with massive commercial opportunities tied to how efficiently and securely we can process data wherever it's generated. He offers a thoughtful, non-political perspective on how escalating tariffs on Chinese goods could impact the semiconductor supply chain, AI innovation, and global data privacy. Along the way, the conversation touches on chiplets, SoC (system-on-chip) trends, and, what he really thinks about Nvidia. If you care about the future of AI, semiconductors, or where the real innovation is happening behind the scenes, this is a must-listen episode.Nandan Nayampally is the Chief Commercial Officer at Baya that runs ProductManagement, Marketing Communication, Business Development, Sales and Strategic Alliances. Nandan has consistently been passionate about disruptive technologies and being in the eye of the storm in semiconductor inflection points. While he's had various start up stints in neuromorphic AI at Brain chip, Tenstorrent and Denali Software, a major part of Nandan's career involved growing Arm's processor business from $200M to into the $billions, and expanding its reach from the mobile and consumer markets to automotive, networking infrastructure, data center and AI. During his time, Arm's customers shipped more than a 150B process-based chips. He also had meaningful stints at AMD and Amazon on scaling Alexa into 3rd party devices.

Raising girls to stand firm in Biblical truth has never been more urgent. In today's culture, truth is often seen as relative, faith is regularly deconstructed, and identity is shaped more by screens than by Scripture. On this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, guest host Erin Marco, American Heritage Girls Director of Marketing & Communications, sits down with Abigail DeJarnatt, Founder and CEO of Counteract USA, to discuss how Gen Z girls can live with bold conviction and unshakable grace in a world that challenges their faith at every turn.  After witnessing her generation wrestle with doubt, isolation, and cultural confusion, Abigail followed God's call to launch Counteract USA—a movement dedicated to equipping young Christians to stand on the unchanging truth of God's Word. This inspiring conversation explores the cultural lies young women are believing, the crisis of worldview among Gen Z, and how parents can provide their daughters with the tools, community, and confidence to respond with both courage and compassion.  From the battleground of social media to the lunchroom conversations at school, Abigail shares practical advice for helping girls articulate their faith and live it out daily. She and Erin talk about the importance of pairing truth with grace, building a faith-filled support system, and encouraging girls to take part in worldview discussions that matter. Whether your daughter is questioning her beliefs, struggling to find her voice, or simply trying to walk faithfully in a confusing culture, this episode is filled with encouragement and equipping for the journey ahead.  Listeners will also get a behind-the-scenes look at how Counteract USA uses small groups and strategic online content to disciple young believers and foster real, Christ-centered conversations. Abigail's story is a powerful reminder that no generation is too lost to be led, and no girl is too young to be used by God.  If you're passionate about raising a girl who shines brightly in a dark world, don't miss this hope-filled and empowering episode. Subscribe today so you never miss a moment of encouragement, equipping, and Gospel-centered truth.  Learn more about Abigail and her work with Counteract USA, visit counteractusa.org  Find an American Heritage Girls Troop near you, visit americanheritagegirls.org       Add even more Biblical wisdom to your parenting quiver, visit raisinggodlygirls.com
