Bob Deutsch offers the clues.Meet Dr. Bob Deutsch: Cognitive anthropologist & author of The 5 Essentials: Using Your Inborn Resources To Create a Fulfilling Life: There couldn’t be a better time for this book. As we face unprecedented levels of uncertainty and change, it’s more important than ever that you know who you are. The 5 Essentials will help make this possible in revelatory new ways. We all share a human need to be and do what reflects our innermost nature -- to live in our own, true, unique identity. Through Dr. Deutsch’s keen anthropological eye for “deep universals,” he shows us that we each have, in our own way and on our own scale, the ability to live lives as rich and vibrant as we can imagine. Bob Deutsch, Ph.D., has spent nearly three decades researching this question, and he has found that each of us has five inborn resources — curiosity, openness, sensuality, paradox, and self-story — that when used optimally can lead to extraordinary levels of self-expansion. Dr. Deutsch calls these tools essentials because they are resident in all of us, because they are central to our being, and because they go a long way toward providing us clues to who we really are.

As Ocean Guardian, he wants the world to see the ocean as an interconnected system of relationships. The ocean, after all, is comprehensive social system that integrates human need for all things (take fresh water, food, energy, health, transport, recreation, for starters.) But in reality, the significance of the ocean is fundamentally misunderstood and critically ignored at most levels of society. The ocean is, in fact,  viewed as just a place apart. So as Director of the World Ocean Observatory, he's keen to make sure the ocean gets a new information service that meets the needs of an inquisitive global public. At www.w2o.net headquarters, he’s running a virtual educational initiative incorporating the World Ocean Forum, Classroom, public programs and much more to change the minds of audiences around the world.

Today, we’re looking at one remarkable organization, NFTE, the Network for Teaching for Entrpreneurship. Founded in New York City in 1987 by Steve Mariotti,a former entrepreneur turned high school math teacher in the South Bronx, he discovered that when young people from low-income communities are given the opportunity to learn about entrepreneurship, their innate "street smarts" can easily develop into "academic smarts" and "business smarts." Through entrepreneurship, he realized, young people discover that what they are learning in the classroom is relevant to the real world. Patricia Alper sits on the Local and National Board of NFTE. She joins us today from Washington DC as well as two NFTE graduates, Bruce and Glen Proctor, NY-based twin brothers who benefited from NFTE big time! They're about to launch their new accessories line in November.

Start Tapping into the Creative Beast Within. Identify the defining moments in your life. Then, think again. I'm hearing the same kind of question alot recently. Business owners are looking for a magic bullet -- a new way to land clients or increase sales. Wearing the hat of Brand Anthropologist, this is one solution to get to the core of the problem. We start to look at the trajectory of your life and/or career and identify  the defining moments for you. Why do they stand out? What happened exactly, and why are they so significant to you? Let your memory take you right back there and probe a little more. The idea here is to pick one of your defining moments and then weave it right into the fabric of your brand story.

(Next segment scheduled July 27.) So meet my special guest, Etsy Educator Danielle Maveal who is one of the company's first employees. With her help, Etsy is now one of the fastest-growing online creative marketplaces for handcrafted goods in the world. (FYI Brooklyn-based Etsy just celebrated its sixth birthday with 200 enthusiastic employees!) BONUS: In both shows, a couple of Etsy sellers are getting a live on-the-spot mini Brand Audit to help them ramp up their sales even more! But getting back to Danielle: Her family always knew she was going to be an entrepreneur. As a child, she'd place a hand painted sign in their front window reading, "Cat Show: 5 cents!" What’s more, she was always making and selling things (a batch of screen printed tees for local bands, sterling silver jewelry,etc.) Then she found Etsy and everything clicked. Within six months, she had sold over 500 pieces of jewelry, was found by dozens of galleries and boutiques worldwide and had mentions in fancy blogs and magazines. When Etsy gave her the opportunity to work at the company, she packed up her studio and relocated to Brooklyn. For the past four years, Danielle has been educating creative entrepreneurs via Etsy Blog posts, the Etsy Success newsletter and workshops. Go to etsy.com and join one of the most creative communities for makers, buyers and sellers!   00:31:00NY Brand Lab RadionoDanielle Maveal,etsy,entrepreneur,marketing success,etsy blogIN FULL DISCLOSURE: Today's radio show is one of two special segments geared to restless creatives who are looking to apply their entrepreneurial spirit to moneNY Brand Lab Radio | John Jantschhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/ny-brand-lab-radio/2011/06/22/ny-brand-lab-radio-john-jantschBusinesshttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/ny-brand-lab-radio/2011/06/22/ny-brand-lab-radio-john-jantsch/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/ny-brand-lab-radio/2011/06/22/ny-brand-lab-radio-john-jantschWed, 22 Jun 2011 14:00:00 GMTNY Brand Lab Radio | John JantschHe’s been called the World’s Most Practical Small Business Expert for consistently delivering real-world, proven small business marketing ideas and strategies.

A broker in the public interest with an uncanny ability to creatively tie strands together to make a positive difference, she's also an innovator in the business of food. As a child, her punishment for misbehaving was to visit local farms with her father, a sales rep for the family’s Long Island fertilizer company. It connected her to the land in ways that would, one day, set her future career course. She moved from studying art at college back to agriculture, and has emerged as influential voice for New York City’s good food movement. Both the Mayor’s office and the Speaker Quinn’s office seek her counsel when it comes to food policy. Through her firm, Karp Resources, Karen has helped New York City schools procure locally grown food. She is organizing a regional supply chain to help bring fresh, local produce to a major New York City supermarket chain, and is overseeing the Green Cart initiative. For the past 15 years, she has helped City Harvest reach or exceed its targets to feed hungry New Yorkers. Her feasibility study and business plan for a New York City Wholesale Farmers’ Market at Hunts Point for the NYS Department of Agriculture and Markets and the USDA set the gold standard for quantifying how to scale up production and distribution of local food in the U.S. Her real success is measured by her ability to change the way a wide range of people – corporate executives, school officials, distributors, and farmers – think about how food can be produced, processed and distributed, and how she encourages them to innovate in challenging times. www.karpresources.com 00:31:00NY Brand Lab RadionoKaren Karp,karp resources,food business,food expert,agriculture expertKaren Karp is an enlightened entrepreneur.
