Send us Fan MailAuthor Amy Wallace was the ghostwriter for Virginia Roberts Giuffre's, Nobody's Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice. Virginia Giuffre was an American advocate and survivor of sex trafficking who became widely known for accusing financier Jeffrey Epstein and his associates, including Prince Andrew, of sexual abuse. She died by suicide in April 2025 at her home in Australia. At the time of her death, her book was complete and slated for publication. As you will hear us discuss, Amy needed to come forward at that time to provide a bridge to the manuscript in light of public details about Virginia that came to light just before her death, namely the abusive nature of her marriage which had not been detailed in the book. Amy Wallace splits her time between books and magazines. Her magazine work has appeared in GQ, Wired, The New Yorker, New York, Esquire, Vanity Fair, Details, The Nation, the New York Times Magazine, Elle, and other national publications. Two of her profiles – “Hollywood's Information Man” (Los Angeles, 2001) and “Walking Time Bomb” (New York, 2019) – have been nominated for a National Magazine Award. She has collaborated on two other books, 2021's Hot Seat: What I Learned Leading a Great American Company, by Jeff Immelt, the former CEO of General Electric and 2014's Creativity, Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration with Ed Catmull, then the president of Pixar Animation and Disney Animation. Call 988, if you or someone you know is having thoughts of self-harm.

Episode Summary Erin and Rachel discuss Tangled (2010), the 50th animated film from Walt Disney Animation Studios and one of Rachel's favorites. Based on the fairytale of Rapunzel, this coming-of-age tale features songs from Disney veteran Alan Menken and impressive computer animation. Although Erin and Rachel disagree about the viability of the romantic plot, they agree that Mother Gothel is an effective villain and Pascal is a delightful sidekick. Episode References 羽静.

Not just the first line or even the first chapter, but that early stretch where a book begins to take shape, sets the tone, introduces its concerns, and makes its promises to the reader.What do we look for in an opening movement? What helps us trust a book? And how do great openings draw us in? We talk about some of our favorite examples and consider how novels teach us how to read them from the very start.2026 Novella Book ClubWe have announced the four novellas we will be reading for The Mookse and Gripes Novella Book Club in 2026!* January: Daisy Miller, by Henry James* April: An Episode in the Life of a Landscape Painter, by César Aira* July: The Hour of the Star, by Clarice Lispector* September: Prelude, by Katherine MansfieldDiscussions will be hosted at The Mookse and the Gripes Discord (see below!).We've got some fantastic author-focused episodes lined up for the foreseeable future, and we want to give you plenty of time to dive in if you'd like to read along with us.

Melanie Perkins is CEO and co-founder of Canva, currently valued at over $42 billion, generating over $3 billion in annual revenue, with more than 240 million monthly active users and, incredibly, eight consecutive years of profitability. But the journey was far from smooth. Melanie was rejected by over 100 investors during her first fundraising round, her team spent two years without being able to ship a new feature during a technical rewrite, and the company pivoted early from a yearbook publishing platform to become the design powerhouse it is today. Through it all, she maintained what she calls “column B” thinking: building toward a dream future rather than just using the bricks around you.We discuss:1. How “column B” thinking helped Melanie build Canva, by starting with an impossible vision rather than existing constraints2. The power of setting “crazy big goals”3. How Canva survived a painful two-year period without shipping any new features while rewriting their codebase4. How Melanie pushed through 100 investor rejections, and how she used each rejection to strengthen her pitch5. Canva's “two-step plan”: build one of the world's most valuable companies, then do the most good possible6.

His dad was one of 14 kids. 5 of his dad's siblings died as infants. His dad was the first person in his family ever to go to college. He had to work while he was going to college and pay his own way. His dad built the family house with his own hands.(10:30) When you read biographies of people who've done great work, it's remarkable how much luck is involved. They discover what to work on as a result of a chance meeting, or by reading a book they happen to pick up. So you need to make yourself a big target for luck, and the way to do that is to be curious.

His thinking was this would establish him as the most powerful player in the room since he could afford to keep everyone else waiting.

In today's episode of Category Visionaries, we speak with Damien Hutchins, Co-Founder of Rollzi, a full truckload carrier provider that's raised over $8 Million in funding, about why it's time for a whole new approach to trucking and how Rollzi is making it happen. Deploying an innovative ‘single-lane relay' strategy in which a network of local transit nodes keep trucks on the road while taking the pressure off drivers, Rollzi is reducing costs, increasing efficiency, and providing a less grueling work lifestyle for the drivers at the heart of their business. We also speak about how, despite being a ‘non-tech guy,'  Damien found himself with a career-long history in tech, what excites him about the trucking industry in particular, how drivers deal with difficult schedules, and what Rollzi plans to do about it, and where autonomy might fit into the freight network of the future. Topics Discussed: Damien's background in the tech sector despite being  self-professed ‘non-tech guy' How Damien found himself in the trucking space and what excites him about this industry in particular The challenges facing the trucking industry in a post-covid economy and how they inspired Damien to found Rollzi How Rollzi builds efficiency into its business model by bringing a whole new approach to road freight Why automation is far from a panacea for freight, but where it might find a place in Rollzi's business model How Damien tries to strike a balance between the expense of innovation and the need to stay profitable   Favorite book:  Creativity, Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration

We also talk about how Anthony engages with clients and how asking the right questions, listening, and showing empathy can help close those "dream clients."    Connect with Anthony:  Instagram: www.instagram.com/anthonykdo/  Vero: https://www.vero.co/anthonykdo  Connect with us:   amap.to/imagemakers/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_imagemakers JD's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jd.final.mp4 Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shotbychrisv  CREATIVE RESOURCES  From Anthony  "The Win Without Pitching Manifesto" by Blair Enns https://www.amazon.com/Win-Without-Pitching-Manifesto/dp/1605440043 "Never Split the Difference: Negotiating as if Your Life Depended on It" by Chris Voss https://www.amazon.com/Never-Split-Difference-audiobook/dp/B01COR1GM2/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1MGK02CIYPO2V&keywords=never+split+the+difference+by+chris+voss&qid=1663384237&s=books&sprefix=never+spl%2Cstripbooks%2C79&sr=1-1  "The Future"  https://thefutur.com/pro-group "The Artists Way" by Julia Cameron  https://www.amazon.com/Artists-Way-25th-Anniversary/dp/0143129252 "Giving yourself permission to feel creative" by Ethan Hawke https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRS9Gek4V5Q  From JD  "Creativity Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration" by Ed Catmull & Amy Wallace  https://www.amazon.com/Creativity-Inc-Overcoming-Unseen-Inspiration-ebook/dp/B00FUZQYBO  From Chris "Socratic Selling: How to Ask the Questions That Get the Sale" by Kevin Daley with Emmett Wolfe  https://www.amazon.com/Socratic-Selling-Questions-That-Sale/dp/0786304553/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Socratic+selling&qid=1663384982&s=books&sr=1-1  "Commercial Directing Voodoo: Filmmaking Spells & Production Potions" by Mr. Jordan Brady  https://www.amazon.com/Commercial-Directing-Voodoo-Filmmaking   "In the Blink of an Eye: A Perspective on Film Editing, 2nd Edition" by Walter Murch  https://www.amazon.com/Blink-Eye-Perspective-Film-Editing/dp/1879505622/ref=sr_1_1?crid=VXXI8U87IAPG&keywords=in+the+blink+of+an+eye&qid=1663385590&s=books&sprefix=in+the+blink+of+an+eye+%2Cstripbooks%2C70&sr=1-1

This month SGN's own Daniel Thomas joins the show to breakdown the book Creativity, Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration by Edward Catmull. Edward is the co-founder of Pixar makes of hit movies such as Toy Story, Monster Inc. Finding Nemo and much more. In this episode we will touch on topics of embracing change, seeking the best in your small groups, perfectionism, and the importance of honesty and candor. 

To help you become an awesome software architect, we have picked out our top four books to make 12 in total. We are looking at engineering books have influenced both ourselves and 'The Flywheel Effect' book. 1. 'Continuous Delivery' came out in 2011. And it has been massively influential in how high performing teams deliver their software today. It is still as fresh as it was when it was written. And a lot of teams would do well to actually read it again. 2. 'Domain Driven Design' is a good book on how to describe a domain, good domain models and the importance of collaboration, communication and shared understanding, including their chapter on ubiquitous languages. You can be in different types of stacks or scenarios, but the knowledge is abstract so it's broadly applicable. 3. The Simon Wardley Book I have got a print copy of it. And I find myself always coming back to it. I think it was out in 2011. It's chunky and quite academic. So it's not exactly an easy read. But it's as deep as well, as they say. So I'm a big fan and I always go back to it. I don't take every word of it literally. But it's definitely a good read and will challenge your thinking still to this day. 4. 'Accelerate' by Nicole Forsgren, Jez Humble, and Gene Kim. This is a game changer. I think everyone the industry understands that. It distills down and captures (with scientific backing) all of the things that we were trying to articulate or were trying to push or evolve in our ecosystem.The capabilities to drive improvement, the scientific backing and little snippets of good advice and guidance. It is one of the best. 5. 'Extreme Ownership' by Jocko Willink. There's some cracking guidance on how to own something and lead. One that sticks out is centralised command and leading up and down the line. It's a well thought out and structured book on how to think, modern leadership and how to motivate people to be successful. I enjoy reading about how to think through systems, particularly in a leadership position, in technical orbs and stuff like that. It helps you to think like a leader. 6. 'Team Topologies' by Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais. It's such a powerful question to ask 'what type of team are you?' And the response is: 'what do you mean?'. The answer is that you're a platform team, an enablement team, a value stream team or you're not anything. And all the techniques are in it with different tools and team API's and stuff. I think it's really practical. You can pick it up and implement tomorrow. 7. 'Reaching Cloud Velocity' It covers how to succeed in the cloud. In other words what are the principles and tenets that you should apply. What are the cultural and organisational things you should think about as you're starting to move to the cloud. It looks at the architectural approaches and patterns you should adopt. And how to do security and governance. It also looks at what's your business strategy, now that you're in the cloud. 8. 'Designing Data Intensive Applications' is almost a bible for anything data related such as streaming, different types of databases and why you make decisions on certain types of databases. You get into the design and the nuance of it. And understanding the landscape. It's broken into 2 to 3 minute blocks. So you can get straight into it and get perspective or context. 9. 'Creativity Inc', by Ed Catmull. The book is about Pixar, who went up against Disney by direct selling films. The full title of the book is 'Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration' . They talk about the inspiration of creating and then actually making it. And how they structured the company and all the challenges they had. 10. 'Working Backwards' by Colin Bryar and Bill Carr. We see Amazon from the outside eg. amazon.com, Amazon Prime, deliveries and Alexa. But how do they actually do it? How can they be so successful and set themselves up for success? What way are their leadership structured? 'Working Backwards' distils down and gives insight into how Amazon operates at that sort of scale. It looks at how they have remained successful despite their growth. 11. 'Ask Your Developer' by Jeff Lawson, looking at the developer centric approach at Twilio. There's a lot of good content on how to inspire great individuals and teams to be creative. There's a good chapter on developer experience, their golden path and off roading. And how they've organised around developer experience. 12. 'The Software Architect Elevator', by Gregor Hohpe. I love his concept of an architect riding the elevator to talk to the executive in the penthouse, going down to the basement to write code and then all the floors in between. He talks about the how an architect can behave and operate to be successful in a company. Gregor is the 'architect's architect'.

Ana and Camila chat about the development of a Soviet nationwide information network in the 60s that was meant to run a planned economy for the USSR. Built after Sputnik's launch, it brought about Soviet cybernetics and promised a new era for Soviet sciences, mathematics economics and technology. Discussing the project's termination due to inner-bureaucratic competition, this episode also looks at ARPANET's simultaneous development; its surprisingly socialist structures of funding and collaborative mindsets that led to its success.We're on Instagram!And Twitter!Main research for the episode was done by Ana who also edited.Music by Nelson Guay (SoundCloud: fluxlinkages)References:- “How Not to Network a Nation: The Uneasy History of the Soviet Internet”, Benjamin Peters, 2016- “Creativity, Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration”, Ed Catmull, 2014- “The Californian Ideology”, Richard Barbrook and Andy Cameron, 1995
