Description:He's back — and this time he brought a memoir. Comedian Kevin James Thornton returns to For the Love, and if you thought you knew Kevin from his hilarious auto-tuned TikToks and wired-headphone microphone bits, this conversation will lovingly surprise you. Kevin's debut memoir, Big Baby: On Endings, Beginnings, and an Interdimensional Cat, traces his journey from performing as a literal sin clown on a youth group mission trip in 1990s New York City, to grinding it out on the stand-up circuit in LA, to touring one-man shows across the US, Canada, and eventually the world — Helsinki, Stockholm, Paris — all the way to present-day Cincinnati, where he's navigating a major life upheaval with nothing but his 13-pound black cat Comet and an extraordinary amount of hard-won self-awareness. In this conversation, Kevin opens up about what it actually took to write a book — including the two-week-long Airbnb retreat where he mostly just slept and watched TV because his attention span had been completely obliterated — and what surprised him most about recording the audiobook (hint: he cried, more than once, and they left it in). He talks about the strange, freeing moment he realized he no longer needed to prove himself to anyone, and how that shift was the very thing that made his work finally land. And he reflects on the beautiful, sometimes maddening truth that life doesn't end so much as it just keeps beginning again. Thought-provoking Quotes: "Even when I was living in my car, I was still dreaming about the next creative project...I was like that when I was 20. And I'm like that today." – Kevin James Thornton "I didn't realize that I went out into the world constantly trying to prove myself, that I was someone without Jesus. I didn't know that's what I was doing. I can see it so clearly looking backward now." – Kevin James Thornton "We sort of hand over this personal power to other people. It takes a long time to recognize and unlearn that." – Kevin James Thornton Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Brick - https://getbrick.com Jen's Substack - https://jenhatmaker.substack.com/ Sarah Bessey's Substack - https://sarahbessey.substack.com/ Big Baby: On Endings, Beginnings, and an Interdimensional Cat by Kevin James Thornton - https://amzn.to/4mVYPAJ Laughing Toward The Light: Comedian James Thornton Finds Himself at 50 - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcasts/series-55/laughing-toward-the-light-comedian-james-thornton-finds-himself-at-50/ Create with Kevin (watercolor videos) - https://www.instagram.com/reel/DX-UksfK1pG/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Enneagram assessment - https://www.enneagraminstitute.com/ The Comedy Store - https://thecomedystore.com/ Big Baby audiobook - https://amzn.to/4eClfVL Guest's Links: Website - https://www.kevinjamesthornton.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/kevinjamesthornton Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/kevinjamesthornton1 Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNQbKNgL8bcuH8z4pzh9flw TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@kevinjamesthornton Substack - https://kevinjamesthornton.substack.com/ Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.

I'm joined by my good friend Menno van Dyke, artistic director of Circusstad Festival in Rotterdam, for a conversation that starts with a recent circus trip to Stockholm and quickly turns into a masterclass on how audiences decide what to believe.We unpack a museum-style juggling show that uses archives, artifacts, and history to pull kids deeper into the craft and to give adults a new way to watch. From there we get honest about the downside of that same technique: skepticism. When the stakes look too high, some viewers assume it's all a story, which leads to a bigger question about showmanship, credibility, and why “real” physical skills sometimes need more proof than you'd expect.Then Menno takes us behind the scenes of contemporary circus festival programming and how Circusstad Festival Rotterdam helped build a stronger Dutch circus field by creating opportunities for graduates, inviting international companies, and producing new work like a gala night and a family freak show. We finish with the topic we can't stop nerding out about: the seven minute act. We talk structure, dramaturgy, and why short acts can be harder than full shows, plus how a personal circus video archive becomes a living library for anyone who wants to see what makes great acts endure.Subscribe, share this with a fellow circus lover, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.LINKS:You can find information about the Juggling Tango act here.You can see a filmed version of it here.And this is a link to the Circusstad festival where Menno is the artistic director.

On a dull morning in 1986, some workers in Stockholm, Sweden, were getting ready for a normal day inside the nuclear power plant they worked in but that would soon change. Not long after the start of the day, one worker found that the geiger counters they had to pass before entering the unit went off, suggesting that they were radioactive.After testing and retesting the machine for faults, the workers realised they were telling the truth, one of the workers had high levels of radiation upon them.After a scramble in the power plant to find if there was a leak, they realised all was well...but if the radiation wasn't coming from their power plant, where was it coming from? It seemed the radiation was drifting over from a little town called Pripyat in Ukraine and yet no one had told the world that this disaster was going to have long lasting effects and even death...Welcome to Killers, Cults & QueensToday, Cheryl & Nikki are exploring the case of the Chernobyl nuclear disasterIf you're interested in more true crime deep dives, hit subscribe and ring the bell to stay updated.HUGE thanks goes to SNAG for sponsoring this series.

Jonathan Howard and Wendy Orent call this week their "Red Wedding": within days, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary resigned, Vinay Prasad was pushed out of CBER, Tracy Beth Hoeg was fired, and Senator Bill Cassidy lost his Louisiana primary. The hosts argue this is not a tragedy but a long-foretold collapse — a group of physicians who built careers as COVID-era contrarian podcasters discovering that running a regulatory agency is fundamentally different from posting about one. Howard works through the wreckage: Makary's reported approval of flavored nicotine products days before his ouster, the FDA's treatment of the rare disease community, the leaked memo claiming pediatric COVID vaccine deaths that career staff refused to sign off on, and the broader pattern of "regulatory whiplash" that drove the agency into dysfunction. The episode then turns to who is still standing — Jay Bhattacharya at NIH, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at HHS — and what Kennedy is reportedly doing to vaccines from behind the scenes via Martin Kulldorff's review effort. Throughout, the hosts return to a single thesis: the skills that made Makary, Prasad, Hoeg, and Cassidy famous during COVID — opinion, tweeting, posturing — do not translate into running institutions, and the medical commentators who vouched for them (John Mandrola, Adam Cifu) have lost any remaining credibility. Key Topics Discussed Bill Cassidy's primary loss and the cost of the Kennedy confirmation vote Cassidy's earlier vote to convict Trump after January 6 followed by his decisive vote advancing RFK Jr. as HHS Secretary. Howard and Orent's view that Cassidy's promise to "keep Kennedy in line" was hollow from the start. What Cassidy's defeat signals about Trump's grip on the Republican base in Louisiana — and the hosts' read that his lame-duck status may give him cover to block the next round of HHS nominees. Marty Makary's resignation and the "worst FDA Commissioner in 25 years" framing The Stat News piece characterizing Makary's tenure, and the reporting that flavored nicotine was the precipitating issue with Trump's tobacco-industry donors. Howard's counterpoint: Makary reportedly approved a batch of electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) on May 5, 2026 — the weekend before he resigned — undercutting the "principled stand" narrative. The pattern of selfie videos, public-facing performance, and what former FDA staff describe as hostile management of career scientists. Makary's pre-FDA record: the "medical error is the third leading cause of death" claim, Omicron as "nature's vaccine," "Omicold," herd immunity calls in May 2021, and the Nazi-bioweapon Lyme disease theory amplification. Vinay Prasad, regulatory whiplash, and the rare disease community How Prasad's stated preference for randomized controlled trials translated into rejection of rare disease therapies — and the disconnect between calling for RCTs on Twitter and the practical impossibility of running them for small patient populations. Right-to-try advocates, the libertarian wing of MAHA (Senator Ron Johnson), and why they turned on Prasad. Howard's point: Pfizer's halted COVID vaccine RCT in 50–65-year-olds is the case study — the trials Prasad demanded couldn't actually be enrolled. Tracy Beth Hoeg, the leaked pediatric deaths memo, and the Maryanne Demasi interview Hoeg's insistence she was fired, not resigned, and her interview with Brownstone Institute–adjacent journalist Maryanne Demasi. Her claim that the chaos at the FDA was "created by the media" rather than real. The memo alleging 10 pediatric deaths from the COVID vaccine that career FDA staff would not sign off on — and Howard's contrast with the J&J/thrombosis response, where nine deaths produced immediate, transparent action. Hoeg's role in the Denmark-style vaccine schedule rollback memo alongside Makary. The Makary–Prasad ZDoggMD clip on FDA "vindictiveness" — and the irony Audio pulled from a pre-appointment Prasad/Makary appearance describing the FDA as "erratic," "capricious," and politically pressured. Howard's read: every criticism they leveled at the Biden-era FDA describes their own tenure — political pressure from Trump, demoted career staff, inconsistent standards. The Peter Marks / Marion Gruber / Phil Krause booster episode reframed in light of what followed. John Mandrola, Adam Cifu, and the cost of vouching Mandrola's "Can We Give the New FDA's Leadership a Chance?" piece a year earlier — and the line about Prasad and Makary inducing companies to run proper RCTs, set against Pfizer's halted trial. Howard's account of an email exchange with Cifu following Cifu's visit to NYU — Howard's offer of a serious content-level conversation, and Cifu's decline. The broader "medical conservatives" project and what the hosts argue has happened to its credibility. Jay Bhattacharya, NIH, and the resignation letter from departing staff The letter from a senior NIH scientist on Bhattacharya's leadership — political termination of grants, deals institutions are making to recover funding, and Bhattacharya's silence. Howard and Orent's read on Bhattacharya's visible deterioration and his retreat into Great Barrington nostalgia. Kennedy's behind-the-scenes vaccine review and Martin Kulldorff The New York Times reporting (Christina Jewett and Sheryl Gay Stolberg) on Kennedy's vaccine inquiry being led by Kulldorff. Howard's pushback on the framing of Kulldorff as merely "a critic of restrictions and mandates" — and the 2020 record of his herd-immunity-through-infection advocacy, including his Stockholm "almost at herd immunity" claim in April 2020. The hosts' concern that the COVID amnesia project lets pandemic-era pro-infection figures re-enter regulatory power with their record sanitized. Casey Means, Surgeon General nomination withdrawal, and MAHA fracturing The withdrawn Surgeon General nomination and what it signals. The Robert Malone vs. Makary public falling-out over the unreleased pediatric deaths data. Why the MAHA coalition — held together by shared COVID grievance — is coming apart now that COVID has receded from headlines. Notable Moments On Cassidy: "He betrayed his oath as a physician, he betrayed the American people, and he's going down into the ignominious dust." — Wendy Orent On the Makary–Prasad–Hoeg trio: "The same skill sets that catapulted these guys to power — essentially being excellent podcasters — do not translate into leading a government agency of tens of thousands of employees that regulates 20 percent of the US economy." — Jonathan Howard On the legacy: "These guys are now cautionary tales for medical students. I would love to teach a course called 'Be the Opposite of Bill Cassidy, Marty Makary, Vinay Prasad, and Tracy Beth Hoeg.'" — Jonathan Howard On Bhattacharya: "His soul has been totally corrupted by the people who he teamed up with. You also see it in his face. He's not the same person that took the position." — Jonathan Howard References Mentioned in the Episode Stat News — "Why Marty Makary Was the Worst FDA Commissioner in 25 Years" Vinay Prasad's 2016 Stat News rebuttal of Makary's "medical error" claim David Gorski (Science-Based Medicine, 2016) — rebuttal of the medical-error-as-third-leading-cause-of-death claim Jonathan Howard, Science-Based Medicine — recent piece compiling Makary's COVID-era statements New York Times — Christina Jewett and Sheryl Gay Stolberg on Kennedy's vaccine inquiry Washington Post — "Ouster of RFK's Allies Tests MAHA-Trump Alliance" Ben Mazer, The Atlantic — on whether Makary and Prasad enacted lasting change Francis Lee — In COVID's Wake Alfred Crosby — America's Forgotten Pandemic Maryanne Demasi interview with Tracy Beth Hoeg MedPage Today — Makary and Prasad, "The Importance of Humility in Medicine" People Referenced Marty Makary — outgoing FDA Commissioner Vinay Prasad — former CBER Director Tracy Beth Hoeg — fired FDA official Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA) — lost primary Robert F.

From the World Congress of Anesthesiologists in Marrakech, TopMedTalk hosts Mike Grocott and Kate Leslie discuss perioperative cardiac risk assessment with Hilary Grocott, Professor and Head of, The Department of Anesthesiology, Pharmacology & Therapeutics (University of British Columbia) and Michelle Chew Professor of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden, and editor for the British Journal of Anaesthesia. The conversation reviews perioperative cardiac biomarkers, noting abundant prognostic data but limited evidence for biomarker-led management. The discussion emphasizes that elevated troponins can reflect non-cardiac complications (AKI, PE, sepsis) as well as myocardial injury or heart failure, requiring context-specific follow-up pathways. The group highlights NT-proBNP as a specific marker for heart failure and useful for screening and optimization. The podcast then focuses on pulmonary hypertension and failing right ventricle: detect via history, exam, echo, and biomarkers; prioritize preemptive preparation, arterial beat-to-beat monitoring, modest fluids, early vasopressors/inotropes (norepinephrine, low-dose epinephrine), ventilatory optimization, and vigilant, rapid intervention.

Tonsättaren Tebogo Monnakgotla hörde på Vetenskapsradion och blev inspirerad. Nu har hennes cellokonsert, som kom till av det, premiär i Konserthuset i Stockholm. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Programmet sändes första gången i april 2026. Det var när Tebogo Monnakgotla hörde ett avsnitt av Vetenskapspodden som hon bestämde sig för att skriva sin cellokonsert om humlor. Det var brittiske forskare Dave Goulson som beskrev humlornas mörka sida – vad som händer mellan drottningen, arbetshumlorna och deras ägg nere i mörkret under jord. Han beskrev det som ett Shakespeare-drama som påminde om Macbeth.Och nu finns alltså verket Bombus av Tebogo Monnakgotla, som uruppförs i Konserthuset i Stockholm, under deras 100-årsfirande. Solist är cellisten Senja Rummukainen.I Vetenskapsradion berättar Tebogo Monnakgotla om hur hon tänkt med musiken, och vi får också höra forskarna Dave Goulson och Björn Cederberg om hur det gått för humlorna sedan vi gjorde det program som inspirerade till musiken.Lena Nordlundlena.nordlund@sr.se

with life.Sv: De gamla kullerstenarna glittrade som diamanter och de färgglada medeltida byggnaderna skapade en mångfald av nyanser omkring Lukas, som ledde sin grupp turister.En: The old cobblestones glimmered like diamonds and the colorful medieval buildings cast a variety of shades around Lukas, who was leading his group of tourists.Sv: Blommande träd från närliggande trädgårdar spred en doft av vår i luften, men Lukas sinne var fullt upptaget av en annan tanke.En: Blooming trees from nearby gardens spread a scent of spring in the air, but Lukas' mind was fully occupied with another thought.Sv: Freja, en turist i gruppen, verkade ointresserad och distraherad.En: Freja, a tourist in the group, seemed uninterested and distracted.Sv: Hennes blick vandrade från Lukas till andra platser, som om hans ord bara var brus i vinden.En: Her gaze wandered from Lukas to other places, as if his words were just noise in the wind.Sv: Lukas, en passionerad historieentusiast, hade ett mål: att fånga Frejas intresse och förtjäna hennes uppskattning som guide.En: Lukas, a passionate history enthusiast, had a goal: to capture Freja's interest and earn her appreciation as a guide.Sv: De stannade framför Storkyrkan, en imponerande kyrka med djupa rötter i staden.En: They stopped in front of Storkyrkan, an impressive church with deep roots in the city.Sv: "Den här kyrkan," började Lukas med sin vanliga entusiasm, "är en central del av Stockholms historia."En: "This church," began Lukas with his usual enthusiasm, "is a central part of Stockholm's history."Sv: Men Freja verkade inte uppmärksamma.En: But Freja didn't seem to be paying attention.Sv: Hon fingrade på sin kamera, och Lukas kände tvivlet växa i sin mage.En: She was fiddling with her camera, and Lukas felt doubt growing in his stomach.Sv: Hur kunde han få henne att lyssna?En: How could he get her to listen?Sv: Efter ett ögonblicks betänketid bestämde sig Lukas för att berätta en mer personlig historia.En: After a moment of consideration, Lukas decided to tell a more personal story.Sv: "Min farfar berättade en gång om en kunglig ceremoni här.En: "My grandfather once told me about a royal ceremony here.Sv: Det förändrade hans liv," sa Lukas, och såg på Freja.En: It changed his life," said Lukas, looking at Freja.Sv: Till hans förvåning stannade Freja upp.En: To his surprise, Freja stopped.Sv: Hon mötte hans blick med nyfunnen nyfikenhet.En: She met his gaze with newfound curiosity.Sv: "Vilken ceremoni var det?"En: "What ceremony was it?"Sv: frågade hon plötsligt.En: she suddenly asked.Sv: Det fanns en glimt i hennes ögon som fångade Lukas uppmärksamhet.En: There was a glimmer in her eyes that captured Lukas' attention.Sv: Lukas log och fortsatte.En: Lukas smiled and continued.Sv: "Det var under drottning Kristinas tid.En: "It was during Queen Kristina's time.Sv: Min farfars farfar var där som en enkel åskådare.En: My great-grandfather was there as a simple spectator.Sv: Men han såg kungens kröning med sina egna ögon.En: But he saw the king's coronation with his own eyes.Sv: En dag inspirerade det honom att skriva en bok om Sveriges kungar."En: One day, it inspired him to write a book about the kings of Sweden."Sv: Frejas intresse växte.En: Freja's interest grew.Sv: "Drotten Kristina," började hon, "är en av mina favoriter.En: "Queen Kristina," she began, "is one of my favorites.Sv: Hon abdikerade och reste, eller hur?"En: She abdicated and traveled, right?"Sv: "Precis," svarade Lukas, överraskad av hennes kunskap.En: "Exactly," replied Lukas, surprised by her knowledge.Sv: De började diskutera drottningens resa och hennes unika roll i historien.En: They began to discuss the queen's journey and her unique role in history.Sv: De kände en plötslig gemenskap över deras delade intresse.En: They felt a sudden connection over their shared interest.Sv: Som turen avslutades tackade Freja Lukas med ett leende.En: As the tour ended, Freja thanked Lukas with a smile.Sv: "Tack för en fantastisk tur, Lukas.En: "Thank you for a fantastic tour, Lukas.Sv: Jag har verkligen lärt mig mycket.En: I really learned a lot.Sv: Jag ska se till att skriva en positiv recension."En: I'll make sure to write a positive review."Sv: Lukas hjärta fylldes av stolthet och lättnad.En: Lukas' heart filled with pride and relief.Sv: Han insåg att en personlig anslutning hade övervunnit den tidigare barriären.En: He realized that a personal connection had overcome the previous barrier.Sv: Freja lämnade Gamla Stan med en djupare uppskattning för stadens förflutna, och Lukas hade fått en nyfikenhet för att berätta historier som knöt samman historia med personliga upplevelser.En: Freja left Gamla Stan with a deeper appreciation for the city's past, and Lukas had found a curiosity for telling stories that tied history with personal experiences.

Mike Nicoletti is the founder and general partner of Top Mark Capital, a concentrated long-term investor who built his firm from a $110,000 seed during business school, drawing on experiences spanning tech consulting in Stockholm, competitive offshore sailing, and startup ventures.Episode Sponsor: Fiscal AI is a modern data terminal that gives investors instant access to twenty years of financials, earnings transcripts, and extensive segment and KPI data—use my link for a two-week free trial plus 15% off: https://fiscal.ai/talkingbillions/5:00 — Mike's family origin story: born near Toronto, his grandmother was a Jacuzzi — the family behind the iconic brand. From airplane propellers in WWI to water pumps to hydrotherapy, entrepreneurship ran deep.12:00 — The Jacuzzi family sold the business in 1979 at a bad time; infighting over share distribution led to the undoing. Mike's father passed away suddenly when Mike was seven, reshaping his childhood.16:00 — Stepfather John introduced frugality and discipline. The $1/week allowance ledger, $5 lawn mowing, and a grandfather's advice — "Sounds like you need some new customers" — sparked Mike's entrepreneurial instincts.20:00 — Sailing discovery: learned on a chalkboard, walked onto a college team with zero experience, eventually pursued competitive offshore racing. Sailing opened doors and became a lifelong thread.27:00 — In New York prepping a sailboat, Mike stumbles into Brian H. Lawrence's investing circle at Oak Cliff Sailing. Lawrence seeds Top Mark Capital with $100,000; Mike had $10,000.33:00 — Joel Greenblatt sighting at the Lawrence office. Brian Lawrence Jr. guides Mike through fund setup. "I just did it" — filed Delaware entities, opened Interactive Brokers, built it from scratch.40:00 — Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: static vs. dynamic quality as a framework for value investing. Value investors hunt for dynamic quality; dogma is dynamic quality that became static.45:00 — Top Mark's asymmetry thesis: buy quality businesses with unrecognized option value exposed to long-arc trends. Venture capital's trend-identification applied to public equities.53:00 — "Software is eating the world" evolution: from cloud to AI/ML to the current harness phase — Claude Code, Cursor, Perplexity. Enormous infrastructure demand ahead.59:00 — Healthcare disruption: genomic sequencing costs dropped from $1 billion to ~$200. Diagnostics + AI will reshape the care model before patients even see a doctor.1:07:00 — Partnerships over transactions. Buffett told Brian Lawrence only 1-2% of world capital is invested this way — and Berkshire is half of it.1:10:00 — Success defined: Mom's family had love without wealth, Dad's family had wealth with problems, the Lawrences had both. "Surround yourself with good people."1:12:00 — Restoring what was lost: the Jacuzzi fortune, Polish communism — generational wealth as inspiration, not entitlement.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC.

de bryr sig inte om prov eller betyg."En: "Look at those moose—they don't care about exams or grades."Sv: Oskar skrattade, men tankarna på hans framtid gav honom ingen vila.En: Oskar laughed, but thoughts of his future gave him no rest.Sv: När de stannade vid ett av de gamla svenska stugorna, satte de sig ner på en bänk.En: When they stopped by one of the old Swedish cottages, they sat down on a bench.Sv: Här, mitt i historiens skugga, delade Elsa sin perspektiv med Oskar.En: Here, in the shadow of history, Elsa shared her perspective with Oskar.Sv: "Du vet, Oskar, ibland är det viktigare att njuta av stunden," sa Elsa mjukt.En: "You know, Oskar, sometimes it's more important to enjoy the moment," Elsa said softly.Sv: "Vi kan inte alltid planera allt.En: "We can't always plan everything.Sv: Vad händer om du missar små ögonblick av lycka för att du alltid tänker på framtiden?"En: What if you miss small moments of happiness because you're always thinking about the future?"Sv: Oskar tänkte efter.En: Oskar reflected.Sv: Elsa hade kanske rätt.En: Elsa might be right.Sv: Han behövde hitta balansen mellan att arbeta hårt och att faktiskt leva.En: He needed to find a balance between working hard and actually living.Sv: Inspirationen från denna dag på Skansen var en ögonöppnare.En: The inspiration from this day at Skansen was an eye-opener.Sv: Senare, när de sagt hejdå och Oskar var hemma igen, satte han sig vid sitt skrivbord.En: Later, when they said goodbye and Oskar was back home, he sat down at his desk.Sv: Han kände sig lättare, som om en okänd tyngd lämnat honom.En: He felt lighter, as if an unknown weight had left him.Sv: Han bestämde sig för att ta korta pauser mellan studierna.En: He decided to take short breaks between his studies.Sv: Han skulle fortfarande vara flitig, men nu med en ny insikt: det fanns plats för både arbete och glädje i hans liv.En: He would still be diligent but now with a new insight: there was room for both work and joy in his life.Sv: När provveckan var över, hade Oskar en märkbar ny energi och självsäkerhet.En: When exam week was over, Oskar had a noticeable new energy and confidence.Sv: Att släppa oron, om än bara lite, hade gjort det möjligt att se klarare och tänka tydligare.En: Letting go of worry, even just a little, had made it possible to see more clearly and think more lucidly.Sv: Medan våren fortsatte sprida färg och liv omkring honom, visste Oskar att han kanske inte visste allt om framtiden.En: As spring continued to spread color and life around him, Oskar knew he might not know everything about the future.Sv: Men han hade lärt sig vikten av att omfamna både förberedelserna och de oväntade ögonblicken av lycka.En: But he had learned the importance of embracing both preparations and the unexpected moments of happiness.

In the race for B2B growth, we often prioritize speed over everything else. But what's the real cost when your brand starts to look like a collection of spare parts cobbled together by different teams?Agility requires a strong, foundational framework to enable speed without sacrificing coherence. It's about empowering teams to move quickly and independently, while still ensuring every customer touchpoint feels like it comes from one unified brand.Today, we're going to talk about why brand and design consistency is often the first casualty of high-growth B2B environments, and paradoxically, one of the most critical assets to protect. We'll explore how that fragmentation happens, from different teams launching products to rapid hiring, and discuss why building a consistent brand isn't just a "nice-to-have"—it's a direct line to building trust and long-term value with your customers.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Jenny Sagström, CEO at Sköna. About Jenny Sagström Jenny is cofounder and CEO of Sköna, a B2B creative agency that's been building brave brands for innovative technology companies since 2004. Jenny entered the agency world in 1998 with Kraftverket in her native Stockholm, Sweden, shortly after graduating with a BA in Economics and International Relations from the University of Reading. In 2000, she moved to the San Francisco Bay Area to work at Corsi & Partners, where she was responsible for a multitude of clients, including the Oakland Raiders. Since founding Sköna, Jenny has helped lead it from a two-person shop to a flourishing global business, where she currently oversees strategy, account management, and global expansion. An occasional public speaker, article writer, and podcaster, she spends her spare time skiing, tinkering with (and even completing!) DIY projects, and enjoying the company of her husband and two daughters.
