This special edition of Branding Matters is dedicated to my beloved mother - Sylvia Engel Goodson - who died suddenly on Sunday, December 17th, 2023.

In it, I share my very personal eulogy about who Sylvia was;

As an artist.

As a writer.

As a yogi.

As a wizard.

As a wife.

And as a mother.

As a Bubby, and so much more!

It's the ultimate brand story about a woman I loved - very much.

And I encourage you to stick around til the end, as there's a very special treat you will NOT  want to miss!

Today I’m sitting down with Ben Higgins - a former Bachelor who traded in his roses for roasters.

You might know Ben from his time on The Bachelorette and The Bachelor, but his impact goes far beyond the glitz and glam of reality TV.

What truly sets Ben apart is his unwavering dedication to making a positive impact in the world today. And the way he chooses to do that is with Generous Coffee - a purpose-driven brand he co-founded that empowers communities and changes lives, one bag of coffee at a time.

During our conversation, Ben opens up about his personal struggles with mental health. And he discusses how being on The Bachelor was a life-changing experience in more ways than he ever imagined.

This was truly one of my favourite conversations, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
