Tyler Anbinder highlights the upward mobility of Irish artisans and entrepreneurs, showcasing George Fox, a trained tailor who became a successful merchant tailor through aggressive self-promotion and by providing free garments to prominent politicians like Millard Fillmore. The transition from journeyman to master was a critical step for many skilled workers, such as carpenters and masons, who benefited from New York's rapid physical expansion. The Immigrant Savings Bank records track these paths of success, revealing how parents plateauing in artisanal roles focused on ensuring their children could enter professional classes like law and medicine.

Should cartoonists hire a social-media manager? Brad and Dave discuss the pros and cons of outsourcing social media and ultimately argue that most creators should handle it themselves.

Along the way, they discuss shyness, self-promotion, audience growth, and the dangers of trying to be everywhere at once online. Topics Covered • The ComicLab newsletter and the “Five to Grow On” feature • Whether cartoonists should hire a social-media manager • Why social media is part of a creator's artistic voice • The value of learning promotion instead of outsourcing it • Why creative people often resist marketing and business skills • How marketing skills can improve artistic skills • The dangers of trying to maintain every social-media platform at once • Brad's “2-2-1” approach to social media • Platform-specific posting strategies and why one-size-fits-all promotion fails • Social-media feedback as a tool for improving your work • Shyness and discomfort with self-promotion • The “lipstick on a pig” problem: when promotion can't compensate for weak work • Why making a great comic remains the most important marketing strategy • Dave's upcoming Reddit AMA and his Hugo Award nomination • Using award nominations as promotional opportunities • Hugo Awards promotional support versus other industry awards • BlueSky starter packs and audience growth • Why cartoonists should do more cross-promotion • Whether creators should put award nominations on book covers • How long to keep promoting a completed comic project • Managing inventory and promoting older books • Long-tail sales and evergreen products • Using older books as bonuses, stretch goals, and loss leaders • When it makes sense to retire promotional efforts • Whether different creative projects need separate Patreons, newsletters, Substacks, and social-media accounts • The benefits and drawbacks of splitting projects into separate brands • Cognitive load, burnout, and managing multiple audiences • Using separate platforms to measure the success of different projects • When creators should keep projects under one roof and when they should branch out You get great rewards when you join the ComicLab Community on Patreon$2 — Early access to episodes$5 — Submit a question for possible use on the show AND get the exclusive ProTips podcast.

Companies and institutions have mission statements, but when it comes to individuals, it is unfortunately much less common. Maybe it's time to change that narrative. Crafting a personal mission statement takes strategic planning. This means being deliberate about having your behavior reflect what drives you. It entails reflecting on what is important to you and what values should govern your decision making as you forge ahead in your career. Luckily for us, Adam D. Wolfe, MD, PhD, makes his fourth appearance on the Faculty Factory Podcast this week to discuss just that. Everyone wants to save time, and there may not be a better time saver than doing what Dr. Wolfe encourages, which is to revisit your values, personal mission statement and what you want to accomplish in the next year or two. That true north will help you have the confidence to say no, and a well-timed "no," as many of us can painfully attest, can save you significant time, headaches, and stress.

Harrison Endowed Chair in Pediatric Graduate Medical Education at Baylor College of Medicine in San Antonio at CHRISTUS Children's.

Steph is the host of the Courage and Clarity podcast, a former Director of Sales Training at Groupon, and the founder of Sold Out Group Programs, where she helps entrepreneurs start, sell out, and scale group programs with more courage, clarity, and confidence. In this conversation, Kate and Steph talk about Steph's path from corporate sales to online business, the intentional choices that helped her design a career around her life, and why so many creative, service-driven people feel uncomfortable with selling. They also explore what it means to step away from something that looks successful from the outside, why scaling a business can bring up unexpected fear, and how Steph rebuilt her work in a way that supports her life, her family, and her ambition. Together, they discuss: Why sales feels uncomfortable for so many creatives and entrepreneurs How to reframe selling as service rather than self-promotion What "consultative selling" really means Why life design matters when building a business Steph's experience leaving Groupon and later stepping away from her own business The "scaling scaries" and what it takes to grow sustainably How to identify money-making activities in your business Why boundaries with your phone and attention matter more than we think What it means to thrive while still wanting to grow If you have something valuable to offer but struggle to share it, or if you are trying to build work that supports your life instead of consuming it, this conversation will give you a fresh perspective on sales, courage, and sustainable success.

Episode 172: Lisa Bragg and her book, Bragging Rights: How to Talk about Your Work Using Purposeful Self-PromotionABOUT LISALisa Bragg helps organizations solve an expensive problem: when your best people can't articulate their value, competitors win. As author of Bragging Rights and a former broadcast journalist, Lisa knows both sides of the visibility equation—she used to decide who got airtime and who stayed unknown. That experience taught her something crucial: the best don't win. The visible do. Her research across 23 countries confirms what executive teams already suspect: 85% of professionals struggle to communicate their value. That recognition gap costs trillions in lost deals, misallocated talent, and strategic opportunities that close before you're in the room. Lisa's frameworks give organizations and their people the language to compete on visibility, not just capability. Her clients include BMO (6+ years), Salesforce, ServiceNow, GE Vernova, and 50+ other organizations where invisible expertise means lost competitive advantage.CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTSThe importance of articulating your value in today's competitive landscapeOvercoming cultural and societal barriers to self-promotionThe psychology and sociology behind why many avoid bragging and how to reframe itStrategies for leaders to recognize and promote their team members' strengthsThe role of humility, gratitude, and acknowledgment in effective self-promotionHow to craft a personal and professional brand that is visible and authenticThe evolution of the media industry, from broadcast journalism to digital entrepreneurshipFuture trends including the impact of AI on visibility and brandingPractical tools: journaling successes, giving and receiving feedback, and amplifying others' brillianceThe power of strategic self-promotion for career advancement and organizational buildingThe MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Lisa is, How do you take full advantage of the right kind of bragging to show others who you really are and what you bring to the table?FIND LISAWebsite: https://www.lisabragg.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisabraggInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thatlisabraggEmail: Hello@LisaBragg.comLinkedIn - Full Podcast Article: CHAPTERS00:00 -  The Book Leads Podcast - Lisa Bragg00:23- Introduction & Bio02:47 - Overabundance With Others06:32 - Who are you today?

Adam D. Wolfe, MD, PhD, joins the Faculty Factory Podcast this week to discuss peer mentoring for faculty and the power of building a culture of mutual support in academic medicine. It is his third time on our show, and we could not be happier to have him back for an important chat on peer mentoring. He also shares the findings from his work co-authoring, "Outcomes of a Peer Mentoring Circle: An Innovation to Improve Academic Physician Career Advancement in a Community Hospital Setting," published in the peer-reviewed journal Academic Medicine. You can read more about that article by visiting PubMed. Dr. Wolfe is Associate Professor of Pediatrics and Program Director of the Pediatric Residency Program. He also serves as Assistant Dean of Medical Education and holds the Jann L. Harrison Endowed Chair in Pediatric Graduate Medical Education at Baylor College of Medicine in San Antonio at CHRISTUS Children's. "I think creating a peer mentoring circle requires a group of people who have some shared goals and a little bit of willingness to work together, and you can go through the steps I outlined. I think these steps would be germane for any group that wants to accomplish, or help each other accomplish their goals," Dr. Wolfe said.

This week on History's Greatest Idiots (Featuring Peter of In The Wheels), we explore two Scottish success stories: cyclist David Millar's fall from grace and redemption, and comic writer Mark Millar's controversial rise to Hollywood riches.Born 4th January 1977 in Malta, David Millar burst onto cycling's scene in 2000, winning the Tour de France prologue and wearing the yellow jersey. He won four Tour stages and became the first British rider to wear the leader's jersey in all three Grand Tours.On 23rd June 2004, whilst dining in Biarritz, French police arrested Millar. They found empty EPO phials and syringes. Millar confessed to doping in 2001 and 2003. He was banned for two years, stripped of his 2003 World Championship, and fired by Cofidis.Returning in 2006, Millar transformed into cycling's most vocal anti-doping advocate. He served on WADA's Athlete Committee, became peloton spokesperson during Operación Puerto, and proved he could win clean with stages in the Vuelta, Giro, and a 2012 Tour victory. He achieved almost identical results in both halves of his career, retiring in 2014.Born 24th December 1969 in Coatbridge, Mark Millar became one of comics' most successful and divisive figures. After The Authority and The Ultimates (Time's "comic book of the decade"), Millar created Millarworld, designing properties to sell to Hollywood. Wanted, Kick-Ass, and Kingsman became films before issues appeared. Netflix purchased Millarworld in 2017.Critical reception has been harsh. Old Man Logan was called "grotesque" and "without substance", Kick-Ass criticised for undermining its premise, Nemesis dismissed as shock value. When asked about using assaults as a plot device, Millar said: "The ultimate act that would be the taboo, to show how bad some villain is..."Politically, Millar supported Brexit as a path to Scottish independence, then resigned from Labour in 2025, calling Keir Starmer's government "nightmarish, totalitarian."Two Millars. One rebuilt his reputation through honesty. The other built a Hollywood empire on controversy.David Millar: From Yellow Jersey to Prison CellMark Millar: Comics, Controversy and Self-Promotion⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Artist: Sarah Chey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fiverr.com/sarahchey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

How can you advocate for yourself when you're operating in a broken system? We're gearing up to face even more unprecedented times in 2026. And recent research shows, unsurprisingly, that inclusive and DEIB policies continue to be phased out while hostile work environments expand. Many of us are all too familiar with the lack of resources out there to help us cope with all this, especially options specific to Black women and Women of Color, who face the brunt of this ongoing shift.That's the landscape that prompted Sarah Boyd to found The Formation, an app that serves up “real talk, real resources, and real tight-knit community” for Black women navigating the realities of corporate America. She joins me to break down her evidence-backed recommendations for how we should protect ourselves while we fight the bigger fight of fixing our broken systems.Start documenting everything and finding your career clarity as we cover:How corporate changes are impacting Black women and Women of Color;Why you need to keep your work receipts—all of them;How to frame your stretch work and find your ideal audience;The innate gap-filling gift so many women have, and how to maximize it.Related Links:Connect with Sarah on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahwilliamsboyd/The Formation community - https://www.weareyourformation.com/The DISRUPT program - https://www.weareyourformation.com/our-programWomen in the Workplace 2025 - https://www.mckinsey.com/capabilities/people-and-organizational-performance/our-insights/women-in-the-workplaceLanguage Bias in Performance Feedback 2024, Textio - https://textio.com/feedback-bias-2024“Get Unstuck: Make a Plan to Move Your Career Forward”, LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/learning/get-unstuck-make-a-plan-to-move-your-career-forwardBossed Up Courage Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/927776673968737/Bossed Up LinkedIn Group - https://www.linkedin.com/groups/7071888/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If you want more visibility and authority as a coach, but the idea of constant self-promotion makes you cringe, this episode is for you. Many thoughtful, highly capable coaches want to be trusted leaders in their niche without being loud, flashy, or constantly talking about themselves. In this episode of She Coaches Coaches, we explore why running a survey can be one of the most aligned authority-building strategies for quiet achievers and introverted coaches.You'll learn:• why surveys shift the focus away from you and toward your audience• how listening builds trust faster than endless content• why insight creates visibility without performance• how surveys position you as a thoughtful guide and leader• how this approach helps you speak with confidence and clarity• why this strategy attracts clients who value depth over noiseIf traditional marketing feels draining or misaligned, this episode offers a different way. One rooted in curiosity, insight, and grounded leadership.

Send us a textWhere's the healthy line between sharing your work and chasing the spotlight? We dive into the messy middle ground of self-promotion in ministry and music, exploring how to be visible without making yourself the point. Our conversation gets honest about motives, calling, and the practical realities of discoverability—because doors don't open if no one knows you exist, yet hype alone can corrode the heart.We unpack the difference between God opening doors and our responsibility to show up: posting worship sets or sermon clips, keeping language centered on service, and building a public record of faithfulness. We talk about denominational names and livestreams as forms of branding, why that isn't automatically vanity, and how intent shapes impact. We also tackle the frustration of being overlooked while louder voices get booked, and map a path that blends craft, consistency, and humility.A major theme is platforming others. From “up and comers” speaking slots to inviting musicians and teachers to share the stage, we show how leaders can turn gatekeeping into discipleship. Calling becomes our guardrail—knowing whether you're built to teach, preach, lead worship, or support—and we celebrate the strength of small churches: intimacy, accountability, and real growth. The takeaway is simple but demanding: be faithful where you are, share your work without centering yourself, and trust that the right doors will open in the right time.If this resonates, follow the show, share this episode with a friend who's wrestling with visibility, and leave a quick review to help more people find these conversations.

In this conversation, Laura welcomes Dr. Lakila Bowden to explore the transformative practice of self-celebration and the role it plays in helping Black women reclaim agency, joy, and permission to lead from a place of fullness. Drawing from key concepts in her book, The Sho'Nuff Principle, Lakila lays out a liberatory framework for centering ourselves without guilt, raising our expectations, and giving ourselves the recognition we often withhold. Laura and Lakila unpack the guilt, shame, and cultural conditioning that often arise when Black women center themselves, and what it looks like to begin shifting that mindset with compassion. Additionally, Lakila explains why self-celebration is not "extra," but essential. She explores the emotional and psychological roots of celebration, encouraging Black women to "brag more," and teaching how celebration functions as a mirror, an amplifier, and a motivator. Whether you've avoided attention, minimized your accomplishments, or struggled with self-recognition, Lakila offers accessible starting points to begin turning up your self- celebration.   About Dr. Lakila Dr. Lakila Bowden is the charismatic voice high-achieving women didn't know they were missing. A visionary speaker, company founder, and unapologetic rest advocate, she's the COO of iSee Technologies and author of The Sho' Nuff Principle: A High Achieving Woman's Guide to Self-Care, Self-Promotion, & Self-Celebration. After a thriving executive career in Fortune 500 companies like GE and DaVita—and retiring from corporate America at just 37—Dr. Bowden's charted a bold path that's led to her becoming a trusted voice on stage for powerhouse organizations like The Walt Disney Company, Kraft Heinz, Verizon, and JP Morgan.   Lakila embraces a multi-hyphenate lifestyle which aligns with her personal ethos to operate in flow vs force in wealth creation and living life in celebratory fashion. As a proud North Carolina A&T Aggie Alum, her academic credentials, including an MBA from Emory University and an honorary doctorate in Humanitarianism, bolster her practical strategies for balancing demanding careers with personal well-being.

The source is a podcast sermon delivered by a pastor named Jim West from ColonialKC, focusing on a passage from the Book of Genesis. Specifically, the message interprets the story of the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1–9) as an illustration of humanity's sinful inclination toward self-promotion, self-protection, and the "idolatry of our own opinion." West argues that the people's desire to build a tower and a city was a direct act of disobedience to God's command to "fill the earth." The sermon then contrasts this human tendency with God's "merciful redirection," asserting that God confuses their language and disperses them for their own ultimate benefit, preventing them from corrupting themselves entirely. The pastor closes by urging the audience to trust God's will over their own judgment, citing Jesus's perfect obedience as the ultimate example.Support the showThanks for listening!

Patrick Syms started work trying to be a screenwriter, and he got ever so close, before life got in the way. He took a job in advertising, which became a 25 year long career in communications. In 2020, he gave it up to write again. This time, he took it seriously. Being accepted in to the Curtis Brown 'Writing Your Novel' course, he's just finished 'Am I The Asshole?', which is out to query as I type.It's all about entrepreneur Richard Whitecross, who invents what he thinks is a piece of world-changing technology. But when it malfunctions and he becomes the target of a social media pile-on, he must learn to face all the facts of his situation, not just the convenient ones, before he loses his family, his livelihood and his sanity. It was inspired by an interview Patrick saw with a celebrity on TV, and being dumbfounded by the terrible way they were presenting themselves.As the manuscript goes out to agents, Patrick has taken some unique steps of his own... and is releasing a limited batch of books, in order to spread the word and make some noise. He's printed a select set of white label books, inspired by independent record companies. He runs through the process of making that work - what's gone well and what's been trickier than imagined.You can hear what he felt when he was trying too hard to make a point with his prose, also why he's always playing catch up, and the 5 questions that he asks in every scene.You can find out more at patricksyms.com, and find his instagram in the show notes.If you're getting a book for christmas, think about doing it on our Bookshop.org page - uk.bookshop.org/shop/writersroutineSupport the show -patreon.com/writersroutineko-fi.com/writersroutine@writerspodwritersroutine.com Hosted on Acast.

In Keeping Your Integrity Intact, Dr. Michael Youssef warns that the pursuit of popularity is a dangerous trap that leads to compromise and spiritual ruin. Preaching from Acts 14, he contrasts the fleeting praise of the crowd with the steadfast character of Paul and Barnabas—men who refused to be worshiped and remained faithful to the Gospel even when the same crowd turned violent. With bold clarity, Dr. Youssef calls believers to reject the applause of man and live for the glory of Christ alone. In a world obsessed with fame and self-promotion, this message anchors us in the unchanging Truth of Scripture and urges us to guard our integrity, pursue repentance, and walk in obedience to the Lord who never changes.

In this powerful episode, April interviews Jenny Wood, a former Google leader turned coach and author of The Chase. After 18 years at Google, Jenny shares her bold leap into entrepreneurship, the fear she had to conquer, and the hard truths about self-promotion and rejection. The conversation dives deep into managing negative self-talk, learning from failure, and scaling a business without losing your soul. If you've ever wrestled with imposter syndrome or struggled to ask for what you're worth—this episode is your playbook. Key Takeaways: Why fear of asking is often rooted in our self-worth stories How to turn rejection into fuel for growth and not shame The FLIP framework to know when it's time to pivot “Good enough” is often the secret to moving forward How to blend corporate polish with entrepreneurial grit Tactical strategies for shameless (and effective) self-promotion Creative ways to scale one-on-one coaching into broader impact Why failure is not only necessary—but worth celebrating How to stop maximizing and start satisficing for better decisions Why courageous decisions often come from personal pain Action Steps: Write down one fear-based belief you're telling yourself and reframe it. Practice shameless self-promotion—highlight your wins publicly. Identify one project or role that's no longer aligned, and use FLIP to evaluate it. Set a timer and reach out to one person about your business, product, or offer. Quote: "Success doesn't come from avoiding rejection—it comes from surviving it and rewriting the story you tell yourself about it."
