It was inspiring to hear our recent podcast guest, Jason Whetstone, talk about his journey. He went from being a preschool and kindergarten teacher to founding his own successful consulting firm, Whet Rock Consulting.

For the first two years, his business grew entirely through word-of-mouth recommendations, without even having a website. It’s a powerful reminder that expertise and passion can come from unexpected backgrounds and that you don’t need a traditional path to build something impactful.

His story is a testament to the idea that being told "you can't do that" can sometimes be the best motivation.

One of the most important takeaways from our recent podcast episode of 3 Essential Questions was the value of creating a "safe space" for young people.

For the girls at Girls Inc of Santa Fe, this means having a place where they can navigate the tough transitions of adolescence without judgment.
Kim Brown shared how girls who have been in the program since they were five or six find a reliable community to lean on, especially during those challenging middle school years. It’s a space where they learn to build lasting friendships, handle conflict, and find their confidence, knowing they have a supportive network to catch them.

A fascinating point from our recent conversation with Jonathan David Lewis of McKee Wallwork was about brand modernization. Consider a giant like Harley-Davidson. Their core customer base, the baby boomer generation, is aging. This creates a critical challenge: how do you evolve to attract younger generations without alienating the loyal following that built your brand?

This isn't just a Harley problem. Kodak, Meta, and even Google are facing similar generational shifts. It's a powerful reminder that no brand, no matter how iconic, is immune to the passage of time. The market is always changing, and identity has to shift with it or you will not remain relevant. This makes the work they are doing very important for your branding.

Are press releases obsolete in the age of influencer marketing?

We asked this very question to my guest, Krystelle Siarza Moon, a communications expert with over a decade of experience.

Her answer provided a brilliant analogy. She compared public relations tactics to cars. The traditional press release is like the "gas-powered car"—still necessary for specific situations, like SEO or communicating factual information to certain outlets.

However, the industry now has its "electric cars," which include influencer marketing, content creators, and paid media. These newer frontiers have been gaining significant ground for the last six to seven years.
The key takeaway? A successful strategy requires knowing when to "go gas" and when to "go electric," depending on your goals and audience.

On a recent episode of Three Essential Questions, we had a fascinating conversation with photographer, educator, and owner of https://www.shutterbugschool.com, Bryan Steiff, about his long-term projects. One of the most remarkable was his decade-long series documenting wind energy production. This wasn't just a local endeavor; it took him 25,000 miles across 33 states and nine European countries. He even shared the story of climbing to the top of an industrial-scale wind turbine in Aachen, Germany—after taking a safety class in German—just to get the perfect shot. It’s a powerful example of the dedication and passion that drives creative work.

He believes that while many of us hesitate to call ourselves "artists," creativity is an innate part of being human, something we see in children but often suppress as adults. His teaching philosophy isn't about "teaching" creativity, which he feels comes from within. Instead, he focuses on guiding exploration and providing the technical skills that allow a student's own creative drive to flourish. It’s a compelling reminder to reconnect with that inner spark.

In our latest podcast episode, a fact shared by Dennis Plummer from Meals on Wheels New Mexico truly stopped me in my tracks: for every person experiencing homelessness in our state, 81 people are food insecure. This isn't just about hunger; it's about people watering down meals to make them last or relying on cheap, non-nutritious food. It was a powerful reminder that the struggle for basic nutrition is a widespread and often hidden crisis affecting our neighbors across New Mexico.

We had a great conversation with Michelle Mirabal about the "why" behind her event, Foxy Fest. Now in its third year, the festival was born from a desire to create an inclusive space that offers a healthy alternative to the traditional bar scene. Her vision was to build a celebratory atmosphere where sober individuals and families could feel just as welcome and engaged. Past events have included everything from fire dancers and paddleboarding to yoga and community grilling, all centered on mindful connection. It's a thoughtful approach to event planning that really prioritizes community well-being.
