The Analog Renaissance, Episode 1: The Wake Up Call


Listen Later

When Bonnie Christine gathered her team together in April 2025, she asked a question that would change everything: What if the biggest innovation isn't digital at all?

The data was undeniable. Vinyl sales hitting 18 consecutive years of growth. Barnes & Noble opening 60 new stores. Eleven million Americans are raising backyard chickens. 80% of Americans now garden, a 5-year high. Etsy's reporting a 40% surge in analog-themed shops.

This wasn't nostalgia; it was a coping mechanism. A collective reaching for things we can touch in a world that feels increasingly untouchable.

Welcome to The Analog Renaissance, Episode #1.

In this episode, Bonnie explores the deeper meaning behind the data: we're reaching for what feels tangible as we navigate seasons of change, from the pandemic to AI to a world that's shifting quickly.

In this new 9-episode binge-worthy series, Bonnie shares eight meaningful moves she made in her business in 2025: from launching a print magazine to attending the world's largest licensing trade show for the first time. It's not about replicating her path, but about exploring the principles behind those decisions and considering what a more analog approach might look like for your own creativity and business.
