Corey Blake is the publisher of Conscious Capitalism Press and the founder and CEO of Round Table Companies (RTC), a storytelling company. Prior to starting RTC in 2005, Corey was a professional actor in Los Angeles, acting in one of the 50 greatest Super Bowl commercials of all time and guest starring on numerous popular television shows including Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Shield, and Joan of Arcadia.

Corey started his career as an actor in LA and within a few years was on the path to success with several high profile commercials and roles in primetime TV shows under his belt.  He also began to produce his own small projects behind the camera, but something wasn’t feeling right to him.  He was drawn to making his own way and the acting route was not one of autonomy.  He moved to Chicago and started his own company and began other creative projects, leaving acting behind and hasn’t looked back.  Today, he works with authors and leaders to promote their work and brands with his team at the Round Table Companies.  He feels he is able to blend his creative instincts with his deeper needs to put his stamp on all that he does. In this episode we discuss: How Corey caught a break in the acting industry and then moved into directing and producing. His experience appearing in an award-winning SuperBowl Commercial, a primetime TV series, and a major motion picture. How Corey is an avid supporter and sponsor of Conscious Capitalism and has appeared on their main stage at the last seven national events. All about his company, Round Table Companies, and the incredible work they do for the people and businesses. How RTC’s work with books and graphic novels has yielded 15 independent publishing awards and features in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Inc., Forbes, and Wired.

Corey Blake, CEO of Round Table Companies and a 2x TEDx speaker, joins us for his second rodeo on the Influencer Networking Secrets Podcast to talk about How to Really Create Awareness of a Problem.   Corey’s company created a brilliant 17-minute documentary on behalf of PayActiv, a company that provides provides earned wage access to over a million employees at zero cost to employers. The film itself is a masterful example of bringing attention – but not blame – to a problem that’s been brandied about by politicians for decades, but yielded little to no results.   A former professional actor in Los Angeles, Corey starred in one of the 50 greatest Superbowl commercials of all time. He’s also appeared in memorable TV series like “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and movies like “Fight Club.” His work with books and graphic novels has yielded 15 independent publishing awards and mentions/features in the NY Times, WSJ, USA Today, Inc., Forbes, Fast Company, and Wired. Corey is also the creator of the Vulnerability Wall and the Vulnerability is SexyTM card game.     Watch the documentary made for PayActiv by Round Table Companies HERE:   https://www.itsabouttimethefilm.com/?fbclid=IwAR0k7W2c0lQnhztF7lkybPay4rpkK2Q1EpKqhsus3Bfv9bj0_fhf9MyWz8Y   Watch Corey’s TEDx Talk on Workplace Vulnerability HERE:

Corey Blake comes on today's episode to share with us the value in being openly vulnerable in today's world, how that's impacted the success of his business and relationships, and how he's spreading the word. In 2005 he started Round Table Companies, which is a story telling company that supports organizations, CEO's and thought leaders.  Corey believes every successful company or person has a compelling story to tell, and he helps them verbalize it in a way that's captivating, appealing and leads to deeper connections with their audiences. Getting back to Core Values, RTC actually has seven of them:  Brilliance Love Momentum Honesty Community Growth Courage Corey went into detail on three of these values: Brilliance allows for a black and white approach to the quality of work they produce.  “Is it brilliant or not?  Do we feel magic in it?”  If the answer to either of these is “no”, then it's back to the drawing board. Love it! The staff at RTC and their clients are challenged to lean into Courage in all the work they do, to dig in there and do things that might scare them.   Momentum for any creative agency is key in finding the magic and poetry in everything they do.  What a fortuitous coincidence, “Momentum” is my theme for the week! Corey practices what he preaches in a big way, and actually has an executive coach on retainer for his staff of 40 to take advantage of at any time.  He firmly believes in developing himself and his team and notes: “The company is only as strong as I am and the company only has the capacity that I represent as its leadership.  As we continue to grow, that expands to the capacity of other people on the leadership team… ultimately we'll get the company that we deserve.” In addition to running RTC, Corey is fully invested in the “Vulnerability is Sexy” movement that he's created.  It's a metaphor for the work they do in the world by supporting people that invite their audience into a loving space where they get to know each other's humanity.  The movement is catching on and gaining momentum (there's that core value again).   “Vulnerability is Sexy” started back in 2014 when Corey and his team created a concept called the Vulnerability Wall after seeing how people at conferences didn't take risks until the end when it was time to leave.  The wall is a huge, blank canvas on display and people can drop their insecurities, secrets, shames and vulnerabilities in a box and his artists will turn them into beautiful representations on the canvas.  This helps people relieve themselves of some of their burdens and to quickly honor each other's humanity. “When we have the strength to be vulnerable, there's an opportunity for an alignment check.” Ultimately, if you're interested in growth and living a life of purpose, then displaying your vulnerability will guide you to this even though there may be some pain associated with it. Corey's a super insightful, caring and open person and we really enjoyed our discussion, as I'm sure you will as well.   SOME QUESTIONS I ASK: How does Corey promote personal growth within his company? What led him to create the “Vulnerability is Sexy” movement? Who inspires Corey to be the person he is? How did Corey's Tedx talk come about? IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How Corey plans to bring more personal development strategies to his staff How you can be more connected or in-touch and reflective when conversing with others How an executive coach can help your staff and company grow both personally and professionally Why and how Corey took his “Vulnerability is Sexy” idea and turned it into a full-on movement What the concept of “follow the invite” is all about Plus much more… DON'T STOP HERE… Round Table Companies Vulnerability is Sexy T-shirt Vulnerability Wall on RTC's Pinterest Page “Vulnerability is Sexy” TedxSalisbury Talk Twitter |  Email ADDITIONAL RESOURCES Stagen Leadership Academy
