Highly recommended!! Keen perspectives on our evolving industry. Pairs well with crepes and coffee in the morning as well.
Interesting perspectives on handling the complexity of life as a strategist
This is my favorite marketing/advertising podcast. The topics and issues are certainly worth overthinking about and I love the way Rachel and Shann break them down and discuss them. Especially valuable to juniors in the industry who will face and have to wrestle with many of topics brought up here.
This is one of my absolute favorite podcasts! The hosts offer some great perspective on different areas of the industry, and are able to communicate thoughts & ideas very clearly and in a relatable way (unlike lots of podcasts I've come across). While I may still overthink, this podcast helps make me better about the way I think about lots of those things!
Love what you do, Rachel and Shann. Keep going, keep going.
