  • E 15 Mathias Jakobsen - ThnkClrly Creator | The Framing Podcast
    Jul 8 2017
    Creative work can be difficult to define and categorize, after all what you’re doing has never been done before. So when Mathias Jakobsen was hired at SYPartners in NYC to imagine a way to have learning be part of the company culture, needless to say there was no use case, roadmap or an appropriate “job title” and that is just the beginning. 

Mathias Jakobsen is the creator of Think Clearly. Born in Denmark, he founded his first company at age 15, building digital solutions for companies. Powered by digital, he later branched into fashion journalism and photography before moving to New York City, where he worked as a life coach and consultant for startup CEOs and corporate executives. He has worked with Bloomberg, Google, The New York Times, Carrot Creative, Holstee, Coca-Cola, Pratt, The Wharton School, CUNY, FiftyThree and many more. Mathias has a M.Sc. degree from Aarhus University, Denmark. SOME QUESTIONS I ASKED: * Why don’t you have a title at work? * What skills do you think your kids will need 15 years from now? * Where do the ideas of who we are come from? * What was your first job? * What skill from the job do you still use today? * What does your wife say you do? 
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN ABOUT: * Danish and Swiss passports * Clarity Cards * The Unstuck cards and app * Working at a job without a title * Communication and Kids * Why quitting is a good thing • • • ► If you enjoyed listening to these episodes and want to get all the show notes, resources, links, ++ visit: www.TheFramingPodcast.com or Subscribe on iTunes to get it on the GO! apple.co/2lIq46E KEEP UP WITH RICARDO TW and IG: @RicardoMcRae

  • E 14 Helen Tremethick - Brand-Voice Strategist and Copywriter | The Framing Podcast
    Jun 11 2017
    Have you ever read something and felt like it was speaking directly to you? Or have you visited a website that was co compelling it made you want to buy that product or service? This week we bring creativity to life with Helen Tremethick. She craft’s your authentic brand voice, which leads to more sales for you. About Helen: 
Online communication isn’t about magic formulas or some secret stuffed into a fill-in-the-blanks template. It’s a careful balance of truth and nuance. People choose you, just as my clients choose me. And because I think backstory is important, here’s a little more about me: I built The Communications Distillery with a proprietary blend of background in communications and my experience in the non-profit sector. I’m that person who has held every imaginable position from volunteer to Executive Director, and facilitated everything from visioning and strategic planning sessions to Board Development days. Though I’ve amassed years of formal education, my pride is in my Compassionate Listening certificate, a skill I believe is integral to communications of any kind. Outside of The Communications Distillery, I am a mother, a storyteller, and a Camp Tech instructor. I believe in integrity. I like biting cherries right off the tree. My favourite chocolate is very dark and fairly traded. I have a huge soft spot for people doing good work. Maybe that’s you. If so, let’s talk next steps! • • • ► If you enjoyed this episode, Get all the show notes, video, and more at www.TheFramingPodcast.com *New episode every Monday KEEP UP WITH RICARDO Twitter: @RicardoMcRae

  • E 13 Bari Tessler - Financial Therapist, Coach & mama-Preneur | The Framing Podcast

Well, I would also add money to that list, money is the leading cause of stress, and fights in marriages according to a CNBC article. Your upbringing, culture, life experience, social status, and even race all play a part in our individual comfort level when it comes to earning, spending, saving, giving and talking about money. So to bring a little levity and love to the topic I invited my friend and Author, Financial Therapist and Coach Bari Tessler to my podcast to talk about her new book “The Art Of Money” In this episode, you will learn how to bring creativity to our relationship with money.
