The Katies are back from our Season 2 intermission to bring you a conversation that goes deep—because that's the only way that Christine Choi, Partner and Head of Brand Communications at M13, knows how (and we wouldn't change a thing).
There's a reason why leaders like Sir Richard Branson have trusted Christine with their messaging, programs, and comms strategies over the years. She thinks deeply, considers all angles, and strongly believes that communications isn't just about getting your message out—it's about building the infrastructure that holds your entire business story together.
In this episode, Christine breaks down exactly how the communications game is changing and why communities, presence, and experiences will be the deciders of the brands (and founders) that survive in our increasingly digital world.
Other highlights include:
- Behind-the-scenes insights from working with iconic leaders
- Why soft skills are becoming the ultimate competitive advantage
- How to build community that actually drives business results
- The art of creating memorable brand experiences that stick
- Why curiosity beats strategy every single time
Plus: Christine's contrarian take on preparing for both human AND machine audiences (because yes, you need to think about both now).
Perfect for: Communications professionals, brand strategists, startup founders, and anyone who's tired of generic "brand building" advice and wants to understand how the pros actually do it.
Ready to rethink everything you know about modern brand building? Christine's bringing the strategic depth you've been missing.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
