What is fear? Fear is a natural response to a perception of danger. All creatures on earth have it. We use fear to spur us into action - to run or take other steps to save our lives. There are many studies listing specific fears of different societies. Believe it or not, here in the United Sates, one of our greatest fears is public speaking. In num…

Sometimes in business you just need to go in a different direction. Maybe you’re a victim of your own success. Maybe your work-life balance is out of whack. Maybe you’re bored or maybe you just need a little extra cash on the side. Recognizing the change is probably the easy part. Changing is the hard part — especially if you like what you do. Rach…

At this point, alternative foods aren’t really alternative anymore. It’s like music in the 1990s. What was sort of underground has really become mainstream as more and more people have changed their diets to be healthier or to eat more ethically. Gluten free or vegan foods aren’t just for speciality aisles anymore. They’re marketed aggressively for…

If you’ve lived in New Orleans for any length of time, you’ve experienced your share of natural disasters. We even measure time here by hurricanes. We put events in context by describing them, for example, as “Before Katrina” or “After Ida.” After each one of these disasters, affected homeowners make a claim with their insurance company. Now, I don…

When is the last time you heard someone say, “I love email?” I would bet, probably never. Every day it seems like we’re swamped with more spam.

You reply with a comment about their r…

Running a business is usually an exercise in multitasking. Whatever your one real gift is — that thing that got you into business in the first place — there’s a pretty good chance you won’t be doing it anymore once you’ve become successful enough. That can be bittersweet. But it’s the way of the world. So it would make sense that what often separat…

In the course of childhood, we have innumerable experiences. We spend a portion of our adult lives trying to recover from the ones that scar us. But there are also positive experiences.

Hank Williams’ 1952 song, Jambalaya On The Bayou, was the first time much of the world heard anything about us. What at first-listen to most people sounded like a bunch of nonsense syllables like Lewis Carroll’s Jabberwocky, turned out to be a menu of Cajun dishes – Jambalaya, crawfish pie, file gumbo. Today, if you’re from Acadiana and you travel …

No matter which side of the political fence you’re on, there’s probably one thing you and your friends on the other side agree on. And that is, you can’t believe anything you see, read, or hear in the news anymore. At least, you don’t believe anything on the channels they subscribe to. And they don’t believe anything anyone says on your side. Would…

It’s getting easier by the day for your average person to become a graphic designer. Fire up a Canva account, and you can have a logo in minutes. And Lord knows AI is only making that easier, and more surreal. But, as things get easier for the masses, it puts a premium on stuff made by hand. Time was that it took blood and sweat to make the world b…

For most of the 35-thousand years or so that humans have roamed the Earth, we were able to represent what we see and hear through art and music. But we were not able to capture images and sounds and replicate them until - in the grand scheme of things - relatively recently when the inventions of the industrial revolution brought us rudimentary phot…

Cut Out The Middleman 31:10

2M ago31:10

31:10

Before the advent of e-commerce, the only way you could buy something was to go to a store. Manufacturers wholesaled products to retailers, and retailers added a profit margin, which became the price consumers paid. When e-commerce came along, some manufacturers realized they could cut out the middleman - and the term “direct to consumer” was born.…

Do you think maybe it's time we dispense with the myth of the starving artist? There are more than enough ways to make money in creative industries these days. And not just in applied arts like graphic design or architecture. "Marketability" can be a dirty word for some artists, but for others it’s a goal that isn’t at odds with expression. Even ab…

Summer is a tough time to be a parent. School is out. The sun is scorching. You need a break for your kids. Maybe they need a break from you. That’s why they created summer camp, a Godsend for working parents if there ever was one.

When you start a business that sells a product, the first thing you have to do is resolve a contradiction. On the one hand, you want to sell a product everybody needs. On the other hand, if it’s so vital that everybody needs it, they’ve probably already got it. What you have to do is convince a consumer that when they need to replace whatever-it-is…

In fact, recent studies have suggested that had it not been for our carnivorous consumption, humans would not have evolved the way that we did. Over the millennia our tastes have changed but not our love of meat. These…
