I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that no one got into food blogging to write emails. But every blogger I know who has a stable, profitable business has one thing in common, and it's not their SEO strategy or their Instagram following. It's their email list. So I called in email marketing expert Liz Wilcox to help us fix that, because she makes email way less painful than you think it needs to be. Liz Wilcox is an email strategist and keynote speaker showing small businesses how to build online

After going to Australia in his early twenties - because Alan Wicker said, through the magic of Sunday evening television, that it was the most optimistic place on Earth - Guy Vickerstaff was called by a place called home. He came back to Scotland and eventually found his way into advertising the long way round, via market research, a direct marketing client, and a junior typographer role where he quietly decided he could do better than what he was seeing and just started doing it. He is now

En läkande folksång från dagen då den yngre kroppen nästan dog av att uppdatera sig själv — byggdes om av den äldre, och blev sedan, på ett enda ord (“convert”), en förvaltad installation som äger sin egen framdörr. Från födelsemärke till födslorätt.A healing folk song from the day the younger body nearly died updating itself — was rebuilt by the elder, and then, at a single word (“convert”), became a managed installation that owns its own front door. From birthmark to birthright. The full story of

CDFAM Computational Design Symposium — DC 2026Damola Michael; Elliot Glassman · CannonDesignThe environmental design conversation typically begins too late, after massing is committed and geometry is locked. Aurora repositions that conversation to day one, giving architects and engineers an immediate, evidence-based picture of any site before a design tool is opened.The platform synthesises EPW weather files, CMIP6 climate projections, ASHRAE design conditions, NOAA historical records for US sites,

In today’s episode, Kinda brings the latest from Doha, including a welcome drop in Premium 91 fuel prices, a major academic milestone for Hamad Bin Khalifa University and some notable moments from the Doha Jewellery and Watches Exhibition 2026.

Espy Harper, David Spehar, and Anthony Hauck join the podcast to talk about data-driven design for healthcare, where a missed clearance or a misplaced outlet stays built into a hospital for decades. We explore why firms treat every project like their first, how as much as 90% of room requirements can be templated and reused, and how a live link between a room-data database and a 3D planning tool lets one equipment change ripple through every affected room. We also get into bringing nurses and

CDFAM Computational Design Symposium — DC 2026Matthew Sederberg · CoreformThe traditional “design-to-analysis” loop is often bottlenecked by the laborious process of mesh generation, which can consume up to 80% of total simulation time. This presentation introduces Coreform IGA for Abaqus, a solution that brings CAD-exact isogeometric analysis (IGA) directly into the Abaqus ecosystem. By utilizing Coreform’s Isogeometric Analysis approach, users can perform high-fidelity simulations directly on CAD

CDFAM Computational Design Symposium — DC 2026Mike Park · FlexcomputeComputational design enables wider configuration exploration and reduces time to market, but turning innovation into validated, manufacturable designs is hampered by human-in-the-loop simulation. Manual geometry cleanup, meshing, and data management pace every workflow, while the feedback loops between simulation and the rest of the design organization stay broken by data silos. This talk presents an end-to-end, AI-native approach

Today's episode is a short excerpt from a conversation with one of our incredible Proof to Product community members. I love sharing these conversations because building a product brand doesn't follow a single pathway. There is no one-size-fits-all strategy that works for everyone because no two businesses are the same. We learn so much by hearing how other people are making decisions, the ideas that they're testing out, and also how they're navigating both the ups and downs that come with

Then he spends the full episode on his own answer. His first house was a 1928 place in Zeeland, bought in 1999, and it came with kitchen cabinets mounted so high he needed a ladder to reach the second of four shelves. Nobody could explain
