A Podcast for Creatives

We had the pleasure of talking with Alexa Heinrich, a social media manager, and digital accessibility advocate for our latest Conversations with Creatives. In this episode, we discuss why social accessibility is a must if you're a content creator, why shouldn't need to have a vision or hearing impairment to care about digital accessibility or educate yourself about it and practical steps you can take to ensure your content meets the needs of all.

Hamilton, one of, if not the most, imaginative and revolutionary displays of art, may never have come to be without the help of a simple vacation. What can we learn from Lin-Manuel Miranda as it relates to our world right now? Plug into episode 052.

You gotta be on TikTok. You gotta be podcasting. You gotta vlog. You gotta, you gotta, gotta.

But do you?

In episode 051, we break down why chasing the latest and greatest might actually slow you down, and how you can block out that pressure and focus on what's right for your brand.

We celebrate our fiftieth episode with questions from past guests and listeners, covering a range of topics from criticism, working relationships, social justice, growing a creative business.

You're about to take over public relations and social strategy for a billion-dollar company, a job you've worked so hard to earn, and just as you step into that brand new role – boom – a global pandemic rocks our nation, and world, to its core. What's next? Where do you go from here? Jen Hartmann, director of strategic public relations at John Deere lived this reality and she jumped on PFC to tell us how she not only survived but built meaningful relationships in a time of crisis that will set her and her division up for success in the future.

To understand communication is to understand culture. The key to success is to develop an understanding of, and a deep respect for, the differences. At a time when no one knows what end is up, we used this episode to explore how brands and people are handling the challenges of communicating with their audiences.

This episode almost didn't happen – or rather, we just weren't sure if we were the guests or the hosts. Turns out we were the hosts, which was great news because Keith, Jonah and Elliot don't have a podcast (yet!) Confused? Don't be. These guys know a thing or two about marketing and digital, and they just happen to be three incredible human beings. We air some grievances, go deep on WFH and debate if the 9-5 lifestyle is a thing of the past.

It's Thursday, right? Sounds right. Anyway, we recorded an episode. Quarantine. WFH. Joys of social distancing. Annoying push-up challenges. Michelle thinks people want to be like her. It's all in there. In all seriousness, we hope you're doing OK and that this episode breaks up the day a little bit. Hang in there, #creativefam ❤️

When significant events happen, the internet explodes with opinions and emotions. There is no rulebook to govern a correct response, which leads to the questions: What should we say? And should we engage at all?

In this episode, we discuss the impact of recent events from the death of Kobe Bryant to the coronavirus pandemic. We both struggled with our responses, including whether or not to record this episode.

As creatives, we have an opportunity to shape history with our content, which can feel like a heavy responsibility.

When the world shouts, how will you choose to respond?

We had the pleasure of talking with the multitalented Kris Pavone for our latest edition of Conversations with Creatives. You may know him from his run as a WWE wrestler, but he is so much more. An artist. A teacher. A life coach. And his journey from the ring to entrepreneur is inspiring and it's one you need to hear to believe.
