Cultivating Wellness Media
08/24/23 • 52 min
The difference between posting something to gain views and sharing content you felt had to come out is reflected in the outcome.

The Power of Real Voices: Why Brands are Turning to Curated Storytelling with Rick Wayne
Cultivating Wellness Media
07/27/23 • 51 min
A wise man once said that every story has already been told, and the stories we come up with are a mixture of remembering and forgetting what we've read. In advertising, it has become more interesting to curate real people's voices and turn them into storytellers than trying to create a unique story.
When brands like Nike invite an unknown runner from a small town to share their story, they acknowledge, empathize, and give the consumer a voice. It's the most compelling storytelling.
In this episode, I'm joined by Rick Wayne, Owner and Director of Underscore Films and Executive Creative Director for LiveLab. Rick's work as a TV, commercials, and viral content director earned him several Emmy nominations, and has been featured on The Huffington Post, MTV, NBC, FOX, Spin, Vice, and Rolling Stone. In 2015, Rick directed and starred in "Millennial's Guide to Making It," a project founded by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon for HBO's Project Greenlight.
Throughout our conversation, Rick shares his thoughts on advertising, storytelling, content creation, and live activations. We delve into Rick's unique perspective as a director and creative from both the agency and the brand's side, how to turn advertising more enticing for the general audience, and people's realization that being in Hollywood or Manhattan is not a must anymore if they want to create something.
Additionally, Rick talks about self-development and mindfulness, realizing that every tool he ever needed to change his life was already in him, surprising lessons learned in unexpected destinations, and much more.
Tune in and listen to the second episode of Cultivating Wellness Media, and enjoy our insightful and thought-provoking discussion on advertising, storytelling, and self-discovery.
In This Episode, You Will Learn:
- A bit about Rick's background (3:20)
- Why advertising must find an alternative to interrupting whatever we are watching (9:10)
- What makes Rick tick? (14:00)
- The post-pandemic scenario of online, digital, and social media (22:30)
- About Rick's self-development and mindfulness experiences (31:20)
- Why brands are curating other people's stories instead of creating them (39:00)

Although we have the highest adult gym participation in US history, we are also experiencing the most elevated rates of obesity and lifestyle diseases. Why is this happening? Aren't gyms supposed to keep us healthy?

The Advantages of Personalization in Health and Wellness with Alex Oskian and Brittany Werner
Cultivating Wellness Media
10/12/23 • 51 min
Although the science behind what makes people lose or gain weight, burn fat, or change body composition is pretty straightforward, nutrition plans' efficiency relies more on personalization than on the accuracy of the recommended intake of micro and macronutrients.

Breaking Down the Universal Truth of Health and Fitness with Maryann Walsh, RD
Cultivating Wellness Media
12/07/23 • 49 min
The almost infinite amount of online resources available about health and fitness might be a double-edged sword. On one side, people with no nutrition knowledge can google a FODMAP diet and have a reasonable idea of what foods to avoid and which ones to consume more frequently.
At the same time, many people might fall for the dietary dogma of the moment, follow a celebrity's extreme diet, or plan their meals copying a "what I eat during the day" reel on Instagram, just to break their faces against the only universal truth of health and fitness: each wellness journey is unique.
This week, we hear about holistic nutrition, weight loss, mental health, and communications from the multifaceted expert Maryann Walsh. Maryann is a Registered Dietitian and Wellness Expert and owner of Walsh Nutrition Consulting. She holds two Bachelor's degrees, one in Dietetics and the other in Biological Sciences and Marketing, a Master's degree in Food and Nutrition, and is getting her doctorate in Psychology.
Throughout this episode, Maryann shares her thoughts on how the general public access, interprets and uses the massive amount of information about nutrition and wellness they have available. She also discusses time management, mental health, and personal growth and why people shouldn't mindlessly follow nutrition dogmas.
Additionally, we expand on the importance of spreading awareness of mental and physical health issues, how she developed a passion for helping people deal with mental health issues, her newest endeavor at a substance abuse recovery clinic, and more.
Tune in and listen to episode 14 of Cultivating Wellness Media and learn why you should stay away from one-size-fits-all nutrition and dietary solutions.
In This Episode, You Will Learn:
- A bit about Maryann's background and what led her to become a health and nutrition expert (3:30)
