'We perceive threat in the unknown, we perceive threat because there is uncertainty. Uncertainty is a natural human state, that is a grounded reality position and one that offers up opportunities. But because the brain does not like uncertainty, and because people in leadership positions want to reduce uncertainty for themselves, they want people to come in and go, "I can guarantee this, it's going to look like this, that's going to happen."' - Caryn Franklin MBE. The above quote describes most of my journey, and in many ways, it's still that way. I enjoy hearing professionals from various industries discuss topics such as the journey, responsibilities, professional disciplines, rejection, and perseverance. Furthermore, I find the discussions on the importance of branding, marketing, and advertising, as well as the intersection of art, design, business, and creativity, to be particularly insightful - Notwithstanding the industry-level crippling hubris. Congratulations on the launch again David M. Watts, asking critical questions and the great value shared by Caryn Franklin MBE.

I loved this Glossy #podcast convo between Jill Manoff & Felita Harris of RAISE Fashion. A powerfully important must listen. (Open thread) I have been thinking a lot about how we reimagine the conversation about diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging to counter the negative narratives (and decisions) across many industries. This podcast, and learning about the smart work RAISE does in the fashion world was a real shot in the arm to go from thinking to action - and the first item on my list is amplifying this particular pod (and these two thought leaders)! Felita drops awesome knowledge 💣s that has me rethinking so much, including how the #ForbesImpactLab can be an ally and help ALL voices in the #fashion industry. 💡💡💡 So if you have any interest in the topic, check it out. And if you have other resources on equity, inclusion and sustainability in the fashion industry that we should be paying attention to - I’d love to know them! #ForbesImpactLab #OptimisticFashiom #OptimisticAmerica #AppliedOptimism

*NEW EPISODE JUST DROPPED* We're excited to drop the newest episode of Sustainable Sun Prairie! This episode focuses on fighting fast fashion and features special guest Lauren Cohen, a student at University of Wisconsin Extension pursuing a master's degree in Sustainable Management. As we browse through the racks of trendy clothes or scroll through thousands of pictures of online fashion options, it’s easy to focus on what’s in front of us and to overlook the hidden costs of our fashion choices. The reality is that the garments we wear come with a hefty environmental price tag with a large amount of clothing ending up in landfill. In fact, the average American throws out 81 pounds of clothes every year. Join us in this engaging episode as we discuss the true cost of the fashion industry and practical strategies anyone can implement to combat fast fashion. Listeners can easily tune in to the podcast by accessing the Sun Prairie Media Center app, tuning into to 103.5 The Sun, or visiting https://lnkd.in/gr6BEzUe. Additionally, the podcast is available on platforms such as Spotify, Amazon Music, and Google Podcasts.
