Summary
If marketing in 2026 feels loud, chaotic and increasingly same same, you are not imagining it. In this episode, I’m joined by Tania Chakraborti, the Anti Shortcut Marketer and founder of Bravebird, a finalist in the 2025 Outrageously Brave, Outrageously You Awards.

With a background spanning high growth VC backed tech, scale ups, publishing and journalism, Tania brings both creative depth and strategic rigour to personal branding.
