Talking points: culture, marketing, relationships
I consider it an achievement to have Tad on the show. He’s a soulful and wise person who can cut through the BS quickly—and do it kindly, no less. We sat down to discuss the parallels in ethically presenting your case in both the business and dating realms. You’ll be surprised at how similar some aspects are!
(00:00:00) – How is dating an extension of marketing?
(00:13:24) – The meaning of “gauging” a potential partner, and what to look for
(00:19:57) – On sunk cost, grief, people pleasing, and our fear of risk
(00:27:17) – Is there a connection between fear of approach and polarization?
(00:34:43) – How is AI going to change how we market
(00:47:33) – What are the key implementations of ethical marketing?
