Home design is not what it used to be. As popular looks start to make everything feel the same, it’s becoming harder to stand out, create the right style for your home, and maximize value — unless you know exactly what your house needs. When you have insider knowledge about the newest looks, best technologies, and DIY approaches, home design truly becomes an incredibly rewarding experience. To help guide you through the process, Chip and Joanna Gaines will share their invaluable wisdom and experience, and designer Emily Henderson will walk you through the new rules of home design.  — Where to find Chip and Joanna Gaines: • Chip's Twitter: https://twitter.com/chipgaines • Joanna's Twitter: https://twitter.com/joannagaines • Joanna's IG: https://www.instagram.com/joannagaines • Chip's IG: https://www.instagram.com/chipgaines • Website: https://magnolia.com/ Where to Find: Emily Henderson: • Twitter: https://twitter.com/em_henderson • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/em_henderson • Website: https://stylebyemilyhenderson.com/ Where to find First In Line and Brit Morin: • Twitter: https://twitter.com/brit • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brit/ & https://www.instagram.com/firstinline/ • TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@firstinline_pod • Website: http://firstinlinepod.com/ Where to find the production team: • Pen Name Consulting https://penname.co/ — In this episode, we cover: (04:16) What’s new with Chip and Joanna and why they got into exteriors  (05:53) How Joanna makes rentals and flip homes feel like a home (09:11) How normal people can now get involved in flipping homes and rentals (13:19) Why a home needs to flow emotionally and why style should be consistent (15:10) The most popular exteriors  (16:37) Why Joanna tries to steer her client away from trends (17:11) The trends Joanna likes currently (18:19) Why Chip hopes the new season is one that brings us closer to nature (20:53) How Chip and Joanna started out with renovation and interior design (23:34) Ways you can dip your toe into the real estate market and why it’s a great time to get involved (28:18) How Emily got into interior design (31:04) Emily’s early experiments with design and natural knack for it (35:59) When to break the rules of design (38:05) The new rules of design  (40:02) The most expensive choices to reverse (41:27) Why Emily is a big fan of everything that’s in style now (44:22) Why theme rooms are not timeless, and why cookie cutter might not last (47:02) Thinking outside the box when it comes to wall hangings (49:30) Why redesigning can be a positive for some, but unnecessary for others (54:10) Why Emily isn’t big into tech in homes (56:15) Brit’s techy home and features that help conserve water and energy (1:04:26) Sustainably renovating on a budget  (1:08:23) The pros and cons of investing in a rental home and things to consider (1:15:46) Emily’s final tips for getting started changing your space — Referenced: •James Hardie Magnolia collection: https://www.jameshardie.com/magnolia •Designstar: https://www.hgtv.com/shows/hgtv-design-star • Emily’s blog: https://stylebyemilyhenderson.com/all-posts • Secrets From a Stylist: https://www.hgtv.com/shows/secrets-from-a-stylist • The New Design Rules: https://www.amazon.com/New-Design-Rules-Decorate-Renovate/dp/1984826484 • A study about interiors and mental health: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8656816/ • Canva: https://www.canva.com/ • Keynote: https://www.apple.com/keynote/ • Chief Architect: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/ • Lutron: https://www.lutron.com • August Locks: https://august.com • Ring: https://ring.com/ • June: https://juneoven.com/ • Level locks: https://level.co/ • Flume: https://flumewater.com/ • Nest thermostat: https://store.google.com/us/product/nest_thermostat • The Frame TV: https://www.samsung.com/us/tvs/the-frame/highlights/ • Aga: https://www.agarangeusa.com/ • Stars Antiques: http://starsantique.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Social media isn’t just a multi-billion-dollar industry for the creators of the most popular platforms. Today, anyone can reach millions and turn their ideas, creativity, and passions into purpose and profit. So it should be no surprise that influencers generate more than $100 billion per year, and that number continues to trend upward as more platforms cater to creators. Because of that, the creator economy has completely reshaped the way we think of brands, e-commerce, and business, and influenced the way we consume media. If you’re a citizen of the Internet, you’re impacted by the content that finds its way into your social feeds daily. In this episode, actress Eva Longoria and investor-turned-influencer Sahil Bloom explore how to fine-tune your social feed and why there is still so much more room for growth for creators, new and old.  — Where to find Eva Longoria:  • Website: https://evalongoria.komi.io/ • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/evalongoria/ •Twitter: https://twitter.com/EvaLongoria Where to find Sahil Bloom:  • Website: https://www.sahilbloom.com/ • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sahilbloom • Twitter: https://twitter.com/SahilBloom Where to find First In Line and Brit Morin: • Twitter: https://twitter.com/brit • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brit/ & https://www.instagram.com/firstinline/ • TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@firstinline_pod • Website: http://firstinlinepod.com/ Where to find the production team: • Pen Name Consulting https://penname.co/ — In this episode, we cover: (03:15) Meet Eva Longoria and Sahil Bloom (04:24) How Eva always knew she’d be successful and how she got into acting (07:51) How the internet has changed privacy for celebrities (09:13) How Instagram and Twitter helped decentralize trust and create opportunities  (10:30) How Sahil became an influencer, even though he didn’t intend to  (12:42) How innovation is fueled by solving problems and authenticity (14:58) How sharing your day-to-day struggle online helps you gain trust  (16:15) Why being a little older starting out was protective for Eva Longoria  (17:50) How most influencers aren’t even making a living wage (21:16) How to keep your mental health in check when you’re online for work (22:22) The difference between wealth-building and income generating (24:21) How Sahil plans his posting around other projects to keep them tied together (26:30) How Eva prioritizes projects based on if she will enjoy them (29:31) Why Eva invested in Angel City FC to empower women and help with equal pay (32:22) Why it’s easier to create like-minded communities now (33:32) Why Eva is careful about everything she consumes (35:50) The pros and cons of how easy it is to create and consume content (38:15) The best tools for creating communities  (40:00) How Eva facilitates her fan community  (41:22) Will AI avatars be interacting with fans on Web3 (43:35) What is the Pratfall Effect  (44:41) How people are intimidated by Web3 and crypto (46:00) Last tips on how to stand out and be successful as a content creator (53:00) Brit’s closing — Referenced: Tabitha Brown on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamtabithabrown Mr. Beast on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrbeast Angel City FC: https://www.angelcity.com/ BFF: https://www.mybff.com/ Deepak Chopra: https://www.deepakchopra.com/ Slack: https://slack.com/ Discord: https://discord.com/ The Pratfall Effect: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratfall_effect Learn more about your ad choices.
