You'll discover: What a 12-year-old with a handpan and 30 videos on instagram has to teach you about social media The ai-unfriendly paradox that took Nic 14 hours locked in a hotel room to solve The feels Necker Island's version of "luxury" has that most 'luxury hotels' do not The assumption Nic made about her book that almost killed the entire project Why most brands you admire refuse to pick a side What Richard Rohr says we must accept or we'll never love anything correctly The real reason your brand doesn't feel like it fits What one thing might be your competitive advantage as we enter the AI age PLUS 5 journaling questions to help you integrate the thinking and lessons in this episode Fair warning: This episode will make you question every "either/or" decision you've ever made in your brand. And that's kind of the point. New year, whole you. Not new you. Ready to stop flattening yourself to fit one-dimensional definitions of success? Press play.
