36: Nike's Identity Crisis, Taylor Frankie Paul's Court Order, and Emma Grede's controversial book tour

from Dirty Chats

I'm ranting today. Women in the entrepreneurial space need to stop being put on a pedestal...because I'm starting to feel like a lot of them are being dishonest. Also we've got Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen back in court...the judge absolutely clocked what's going on there...Plus Nike's embarrassing response to their Boston Marathon campaign backlash, and why their non-apology is a masterclass in what NOT to do when your brand gets backlash from the Karens. Next, how Emma Grede turned every controversy on her book tour into free press for Start With Yourself... and the reframe strategy behind itAnd then I go into a rant about women in the entrepreneurial space, the wide-open-calendar performance, paying for proximity, and why the real opportunity right now belongs to the women who've actually been putting in the work.I have opinions. (You've been warned.)I'm Marisa Twentyman, website copywriter and founder of Dirty Copy, copywriting for brands that don't do boring.I'm the host of Dirty Chats podcast...And you can find meHERE on Instagramand HERE on my website
