  • Episode 251 - Innovation in Resilience with Paula Fontana
    2026/09/14

    When we first started talking with this week's guest, Mark asked her a simple question: what did she want to discuss? Her answer came without hesitation and consisted of just a single word. Innovation. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 251 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week we are joined by Paula Fontana, Chief Marketing Officer at Iluminr. When we think about innovation, we immediately think "AI", but Paula explains the proper use of AI is to move things forward, not to fix things that aren't really wrong. She adds that the real differentiator in the proper use of AI is the human expertise of the person using it. Paula adds how important it is for us in resilience to be marketers and influencers and to leverage the language of the business to communicate more effectively. And she and Mark talk about what resilience needs to include as we look ahead to 2030. Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey! We sure do appreciate it! Check out the Resilient Journey Hub!

    2026/09/21

    You wouldn't call 9-1-1 for a twisted ankle. And you wouldn't casually drive to the hospital if you were having a heart attack. This week's guest says that proper evaluation and severity ratings are crucial to effective crisis response, and that includes communications. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 252 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group!

Philippe shares his model for crisis response and tells us that the most common mistake he sees companies make is under-estimating the severity of the crisis. He encourages us to follow our operational guidelines when responding to a crisis, but adds that we need to put the same effort and curiosity into our communications. Philippe encourages us to understand the difference between stakeholders and audiences and how our communications will differ between the two. Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey!

    2026/08/31

    If you're like us, you love the stories behind hit songs. Our guest this week has taken the back-story behind an iconic hit of the 1970s and turned it into a lesson on leadership, pressure and resilience. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 249 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week we are joined by Eric Flick who talks about his recent article describing the struggles of songwriter Robert Lamm as he wrote Chicago's hit song 25 or 6 to 4. Eric says that we can also struggle to come up with "the next big thing", particularly after a successful project. But he suggests that maybe we don't have to 'go big'. He says that sometimes, things that seem ordinary in the moment can actually become transformational later. In other words, don't chase the next big hit. Just do your job and trust the next step.

  • Episode 247 - Bad Lettuce....Good Response, with Gina Clementi
    2026/08/17

    If you ate at a fast food restaurant in certain U.S. states in June and July, you ran the risk of having...let's say...less than desirable results. Our guest this week had her own stomach turn at one company's response. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 247 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week, Mark sits down with Gina Clementi, fractional CMO, brand strategist, and founder of Good Story. They explore her recent Substack article about the Cyclospora outbreak. Gina examines how two companies responded very differently when faced with the same crisis. One focused on its own interests, while the other prioritized the needs of consumers. The conversation also looks at how the current political climate contributed to the situation and Gina warns that communication strategies that may succeed in politics can be damaging during a corporate crisis.
