We've officially rebranded Offbrand Podcast - welcome to Episode One of EnvironMental! One of our biggest passions is sustainability and the human impact on the environment so we decided to shift our podcast to be able to learn more about this super important issue and share it with you! We're going to have guests, read books, and talk about how to grow brands more sustainably over time.

This is our last Book Review as Off Brand Podcast - and it's about Everybody Lies by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz!

We are branding Off-Brand!! STAY TUNED! We have been podcasting for almost a year and we really love it, but we want to align our weekly non-marketing chats with our passion: Sustainability. In this episode, we talk about why we're making the change and we announce the new name of our Podcast!

You need to take breaks. That means throughout your day and vacations throughout the year. We talk about scheduling in break times, meals, vacations, staycations, etc. This hustle and grind culture ain't healthy, so take some time for self-care and relaxation. Your body and mind will thank you for it. 

Something that every entrepreneur deals with is analysis paralysis. This is where you overthink your choices and never make a decision. We share our experiences and our solutions in this week's podcast.

In this month's book review, we talk about Captivate by Vanessa Van Edwards. We both felt like while this book was filled with information, it wasn't great as an audiobook. We went over some of the things we found helpful from this book - and some things that we didn't find to be so engaging.
