Privacy laws are multiplying. AI is changing everything. And your company still needs to actually get things done. Privacy Perspectives is the weekly show where Jodi Daniels - founder of Red Clover Advisors, WSJ bestselling author, and the person who built targeted ad networks before Facebook did - breaks down what's happening in privacy, what it means for your business, and what to do about it. Each episode delivers the operational guidance that privacy professionals and business leaders actually need: not just what the law says, but how to build a data inventory that works, when a spreadsheet beats expensive software, why your privacy program can't be a one-person job, and what regulators are really looking at behind closed doors. Jodi brings real-time observations from her weekly conversations with privacy teams across industries - from startups to Fortune 100 - and turns them into practical, right-sized advice you can use immediately. Whether you're a dedicated privacy pro who can't do it all alone or a business leader who inherited privacy responsibilities, this is your weekly guide to navigating privacy, data, and AI without the overwhelm.
