Good people,
Today I'm joined by Farryn Weiner, an award-winning branding and marketing leader, a podcast host, and founder at FARRYNHEIGHT.
Farryn's truth actually started as a lie. As she struggled a lot with math in school, she convinced herself she was terrible at math, and because of that, she'll never be able to create a successful company. Some inner work and time later, Farryn managed to deal with her fears and discovered that she is pretty decent at math and capable of starting an incredibly successful company. We talked about her journey into becoming a successful leader, the differences between marketing and branding, and storytelling.
Farryn kindly spoke about her relationship with fear and what essentialism means to her.
Some Questions I Ask:
- Tell us something in your personal or professional life where there was a truth that created a significant breakthrough for you once you accepted it (5:01)
- Could you share a bit of your relationship with fear and how you manage it? (16:04)
- How do you balance the emotional impact of marketing with the desire to have people interface with companies and brands that they fundamentally love? Because there's a little manipulation there. How do you stay integral? (25:43)

Yes or BS:
