Jen Landis: The Reflex Blue Show #237

We last spoke with Jen Landis back in 2019, at the OnBrand Conference, where she was speaking, along with other things, about her Pin Curl Girls. Since then, she has continued to promote creativity and positivity to girls age 8-13 with her Art Gang (my daughter is at the desk next to mine working on an Art Gang project while I am editing this podcast, she loves it). We speak about Art Gang, her upcoming book ‘Skip the Bad Songs!‘, teaching full-time, and more.

Keni Thacker: The Reflex Blue Show #235

Keni Thacker was in Omaha to kick off the On Brand Conference just blocks from my office a couple of weeks ago. First off, big thanks goes out to AAF Nebraska, AIGA Nebraska, AMA Omaha, and PRSA Nebraska for once again hosting (and selling out!) this great event in its fourth appearance.

Keni kicked off the event speaking about 100 Roses from Concrete, a company he created to promote people of color in the creative fields. We speak about 100 Roses from Concrete; bringing more diversity into the creative fields; becoming an active participant in the change you want to see; and more.

Enjoy.

Danielle Hughes: The Reflex Blue Show #234

My final podcast from HOW Design Live in Boston this year was with Danielle Hughes. She discusses her talk on “Personality Brand” (instead of what people usually use, which is their personal brand). We also discuss differentiating yourself through how you go about your hobbies; how every no leads to a better yes; companies now wanting to celebrate individuality; writing a better bio; and more.

Once again, huge thanks to the great team at HOW Design Live for putting on a great event.

Enjoy.
