In this episode of Don't Just Talk, Say Something, Natasha Koifman and Taryn Fisher dive into the world of red carpets and the cultural power they hold — perfectly timed with the Toronto International Film Festival.

From their love of film festivals to the influence of celebrity dressing, Natasha and Taryn explore how red carpet moments shape fashion, beauty, and pop culture, while also driving consumer trends. They discuss the business side of these high-profile events, highlighting how carpets impact both global fashion houses and emerging designers, as well as the ripple effects across beauty, hospitality, and the local economy.

They also share personal experiences from years of working on red carpets, collaborating with celebrities, and creating authentic moments that resonate. Beyond the glamour, the red carpet represents influence, opportunity, and storytelling on a global scale — and during TIFF, Toronto truly becomes Hollywood North.

In this episode of Don't Just Talk, Say Something, Natasha Koifman and Taryn Fisher get personal, asking each other the kinds of questions you may not know about someone — even if you've worked with them for years.

They share stories about their upbringings, both born outside of Canada, and how those early experiences shaped who they are today — personally, professionally, and as entrepreneurs. From navigating career challenges to leading teams, mentorship, and managing the delicate balance between business and home life, Natasha and Taryn open up about what work-life balance really looks like today.

The conversation touches on parenthood, leadership, and the most challenging moments in their careers, offering a rare glimpse into the experiences that brought them to where they are today. It's a candid, thoughtful discussion about resilience, growth, and the lessons learned along the way.

In this episode of Don't Just Talk, Say Something, Natasha Koifman and Taryn Fisher explore the difference between being an "influencer" and being influential — and why it's important to define what those terms mean for your brand or client.

Drawing on their experiences working with creators, tastemakers, and industry leaders, Natasha and Taryn share insights into how brands can identify the right partners: those who align with their values, genuinely love the products they promote, and can build trust with their audiences. Because while reach matters, it's most impactful when it connects organically with the right people.

The conversation also covers best practices for influencer partnerships, the importance of authenticity, and how to balance data-driven selection with human intuition. Whether it's press trips, content collaborations, or choosing the right voices to represent a brand, Natasha and Taryn highlight why influence is about resonance and alignment — not just numbers.

This week on the podcast, Natasha Koifman and Taryn Fisher are joined by a very special guest: Natasha's husband and NKPR Creative Director, Eric Hendrix. Together, they explore the meaning of authenticity — and the price we sometimes pay to truly live it.

Eric shares his perspective as a writer and journalist, and why staying authentic matters, especially when words can shape perceptions and narratives. In communications, marketers, and publicists alike, there's a responsibility to remain true — both to ourselves and to the clients we represent.

We discuss why clarity is at the core of authenticity, the importance of knowing your non-negotiables, and how these values play a vital role in every area of life — from your career and personal relationships to your online brand.

Authenticity starts with self-awareness: understanding your values, your objectives, and your direction. Without that foundation, it's hard to know what "authentic" truly means for you.

We'd love to hear from you: How do you stay true to your most authentic self?
