Real expert. Real deal. Real cool. So rare to find these days. After years of running a Hollywood PR agency that got designer brands into celebrity hands, today Liz Dennery Sanders builds her clients strong, compelling brands that resonate. And she’s sharing her story and tips on Glambition Radio.

Different ways of getting creative…

January 22, 2018

Years ago, my husband Brett worked for an innovative ideation startup based in Northern California.

When the creative heads wanted to cook up a few new ideas, they all locked up in the conference room and proceeded to get well baked.

(Brett said he did partake on a few occasions, but of course did not inhale.)

While the ceremony resulted in some unique ideas, they regretted never recording their sessions, because they couldn’t remember what they talked about!

When you use the word “creative”, it can connote many different perspectives.

Abby Lou Walker, CEO of Vivian Lou — Glambition Radio Episode 132 with Ali Brown

One phone call CAN change your life. And Abby Lou Walker’s passion for high heels paid off in a big way. After years of success in the corporate world feeling empty and unsatisfied, she set out on a quest for something to make her feel alive again. And what started as a “hobby” business (while being a full-time working mom), turned into a single-product company with multi-million dollar annual sales.

Abby’s ingenious product helps women wear the heels they love up to 4x longer without pain. After Google-searching “how to prevent high heel pain”, Abby stumbled across a forum where women were discussing a hard-to-find insole product called Insolia.

Jo Piazza, Best-Selling Author of “How to Be Married" — Glambition Radio Episode 131 with Ali Brown

She’s an award-winning journalist and bestselling author of seven books, but it was Jo Piazza’s most recent nonfiction “How to Be Married” that got my attention. And I have to say this was one of the most entertaining conversations we’ve had on Glambition Radio. (Including my 4-year-old son busting in on us, but I digress…)

After years of “dating everyone in New York City” without finding husband material, Jo made peace with never getting married. Then, when she wasn’t looking, it happened: While on assignment in the Galapagos Islands, she met her now-husband, Nick, and was head over heels.

Adda Birnir, CEO + Founder of Skillcrush — Glambition Radio Episode 130 with Ali Brown

After the agency she worked for cut dozens of jobs in 2008—including hers—Adda Birnir noticed something important: The tech team was left untouched. She decided then and there to get into coding, and help other women do the same. Today she runs Skillcrush — an online education company teaching tech skills such as coding, web development, and web design.

Adda has been named one of the “20 Women to Watch in Media” by the Columbia Journalism Review, one of the “30 Most Important Women in Tech” by Business Insider, and has been featured on BBC, PBS, Fast Company, and Mashable.

Lisa Robertson, Designer & Former QVC Host — Glambition Radio Episode 128 with Ali Brown

If you ever watched the shopping channel QVC over the years, you likely caught a glimpse of this gorgeous, well-spoken woman introducing you to a new clothing staple or beauty product you couldn’t live without. Lisa Robertson was arguably the network’s most popular and best performing host of all time, generating a huge fan base and generating billions of dollars in revenue. In 2012 she launched her own Lisa Robertson Collection to create and feature her own designs as well as more of her favorite things, and she moved on from QVC in 2014.

Rha Goddess, Founder + CEO of Move The Crowd — Glambition Radio Episode 125 with Ali Brown

This is a deep conversation with Rha Goddess, who is empowering a new generation of conscious entrepreneurs to “stay true, get paid, and do good” through her creation and work as CEO of Move The Crowd. She is the “entrepreneurial soul coach” behind hundreds of breakthrough change-makers, cultural visionaries, and social entrepreneurs.

But my client Rha’s story is just as powerful as the movement she’s created.

On this episode of Glambition Radio I have Rha go back to her Brooklyn childhood, and then what she calls the intersection of civil rights and hip hop.

Kavita J. Patel, Love and Relationship Expert — Glambition Radio Episode 124 with Ali Brown

Today’s topic is a deep ride with my client Kavita J. Patel, whose insights on love and relationships are profound. And it starts with her own love story. After her partner of four years abruptly broke up with her, she blamed herself and promptly made several failed attempts to win him back (making him a gift basket, showing up on his door step, she did it all!), she finally had to let go.

But a year and half later, they got back together, and today they are married (with baby on the way, too!). But it’s how she changed herself that made the difference, and it’s something she explains in detail on Glambition Radio.
