    Meaningful Marketing with Alex James

    Alex James has spent the last 12 years helping B2B service businesses across the globe become experts at conveying their expertise. He believes the go-to strategies of the 2010s, like niching down, solving problems and sharing ideas are no longer enough. Because in a post-AI world (where output is cheap & everyone's a specialist) you can't just share ideas - you need to own one. You need a perspective. His cut-to-the-bone approach has earned him 120,000 TikTok followers (despite posting no more than 3 times per month), and 10,000 LinkedIn followers from just 40 posts total - proving that a sharp perspective lets you say less, but matter more.

    What Paradiso Feels Like with Héctor Ayuso

    Héctor Ayuso has spent the last 30 years chasing ideas and making them real. Call him an artist, filmmaker, creative director, storyteller, or just a guy who can't sit still—labels don’t matter, doing does.

For nearly 25 years, he founded and shaped one of the world’s most influential creative festivals, OFFF. Now, he’s building Paradiso, a different kind of gathering—one that ditches the polished and embraces the raw, the real, the human. Alongside this, he co-founded NOT On Sale, consulting and guiding creative projects that push boundaries and break formulas. He currently lives in Mexico City with his wife Bea, Suki the perfect kitty, and the only machine he fully trusts: his road bike.
