I think for a brand to play the role of a hero by effectively addressing a perceived taboo topic and being able to steer government towards action has a lifelong impact on the lives of the young women, but also it strengthens the brand and its products relevance amongst that audience.

Sharing with you a passion project I'm working on with the Māui Playbook Podcast.
In this episode we look into the groundbreaking $1.5 billion partnership between Disney and Epic Games, merging characters from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and Avatar into Fortnite's universe, and how this may be useful to you and your kaupapa.
We'll uncover how this alliance not only enriches the gaming experience but also opens new avenues for businesses and creators through innovative marketing, storytelling, and community engagement opportunities.
Highlighting the use of Epic's Unreal Engine, we explore the vast potential for content creation and the seamless integration of digital and physical worlds.
Join us as we discuss the future of entertainment and digital interaction, inviting viewers to envision the endless possibilities this partnership holds for the industry.

Exciting to see 3D shopping / Roblox seamlessly integrated into an entire business ecosystem. This band, #XOMGPOP we’re partnered with, created by #JoJoSiwa, is a perfect example.
No need to convince them to promote anything b/c they do it all the time, even unexpectedly like this week's #podcast 👇. In fact, it’s wrong to even call it ‘promoted’, because they embody it.
The mental model shift is they lead; we support and amplify. And do it fast. This ep. aired yesterday. Today we have new designs based on their ideas.
What we’ve learned so far:
1️⃣ Talent led innovation is always most impactful
2️⃣ Don't let a desire to control it, kill it
3️⃣ Speed to impact is key in today's AI / digital economy
4️⃣ Generational shift in consumer behavior is already disrupting how brands are built
