Episode 170

Released March 14, 2024

This week's guest is Kasper Sierslev

Kasper is the Chief Commercial and Creative Officer for Zite Agency in Copenhagen. His background has been in agency marketing, and he's got experience of being both his own in-house marketing expert and using external support.

During this episode we had a great chat about small businesses and how they get to the tipping point where it has less value using a 'jack of all trades' who does everything for you, versus outsourcing your marketing needs. Often it is driven by the level of expertise you need and the sector you're in. Big logistical issues such as the delivery of freight need people who understand what is being shipped and to whom, so that they can promote the benefits of the company they represent.

Episode 165

Released February 8, 2024

This week's guests is Anita Chaudhuri.

Anita is a Guardian journalist who previously wrote for Psychologies magazine. Her main area of interest, which is close to my heart, is that of handling stress and finding creative ways to feel good.

She is also a talented photographer. In this episode she does a great job of explaining how she came to master it. In the process of taking pictures there is a great deal of concentration, focus and single-minded determination. She finds these qualities give her a complete break from her thoughts and the inevitable 'busyness' of life.

This episode is very much about the benefits of incorporating creative practice in your daily life.
