Welcome to episode #800 of Six Pixels of Separation.

Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #800 - Host: Mitch Joel. I'm not one to celebrate milestones. Still, I found myself wondering who might make for a fascinating conversation if episode number 800 ever happened. I wanted it to be someone that I know, love and respect. At the same time, I wanted it be someone that has yet to be a guest on the show. Someone who knows what it's like to toil in the long conversations over the years. There was only one choice: Debbie Millman. Debbie has been creating her own podcast since 2005. It is the first and longest running podcast about design. I do believe that Six Pixels of Separation is the longest consistently running business podcast, but I could be wrong. Debbie is a national treasure, and if you're not listening to her show, Design Matters, you really should. Named “one of the most creative people in business” by Fast Company, and “one of the most influential designers working today” by Graphic Design USA, Debbie is also an author, educator, and curator, along with being a famed podcast host. Debbie is the author of seven books, including two collections of interviews that have extended the ethos and editorial vision of Design Matters to the printed page. Her most recent book, Why Design Matters - Conversations with the World’s Most Creative People, will be published in February 2022. She is also the co-owner and Editorial Director of PrintMag.com. Debbie co-founded the world’s first graduate program in branding at the School of Visual Arts in New York City in 2010. For 20 years, Debbie was the President of Sterling Brands, one of the world’s leading branding consultancies. She arrived in 1995 when the company was two years old and had 15 employees in one office. Under her leadership, Sterling grew to 150 employees in five offices and she was instrumental in the firm’s acquisition by Omnicom in 2008. Again, we share a lot of common and parallel career tracks. Let's celebrate 800 episodes, the power of design, and what it takes to stay the course in the world of podcasting. Enjoy the conversation...

In this episode of The Truly Co Podcast, host Lindsay May talks with Hope Johnson about finding satisfaction in Christ when your desires aren’t being fulfilled. Hope Johnson is a writer and podcaster in Upstate New York who has a passion for encouraging single Christian women.  She also hosts Hope Unyielding, a podcast where people from all walks of life share stories of God's faithfulness in the dark or difficult times in their journeys.

Hope’s desire is to encourage women with the message that they are not failing as Christians because they wrestle with unfulfilled desires. Hope shares when she realized that the shame she was feeling was not from God, she began to see Him more clearly, not only as her Savior, but as someone who walked the earth and experienced the same things that we do, and who looks on us with compassion and understanding rather than disappointment. 

She recently released a free eBook on what it looks like to be satisfied in Christ when desires go unfulfilled called Unsatisfied: If Jesus Is the Bread of Life, Why Am I So Hungry? You can download her eBook, find her writing and check out her podcast at https://hopeunyielding.com/ or on Instagram (@hope_jaazaniah).

This week we're pulling back the curtains to give you another behind-the-scenes peek at The Truly Co. We are thrilled for you to meet our Art Director, Kristi Ellison. If you've held a copy of Truly magazine in your hands and admired the layout and overall visual tone, you know it's fabulous. Kristi is the woman who puts the text and imagery together in our magazine format and leans into the Holy Spirit to make sure the art reflects the content in each article. 

 

In this interview, Kristi shares her heart behind the design process, how she connected with The Truly Co, and what it's like directing the art and layout for the magazine. Listen in to learn more about our process, the style of art that The Truly Co resonates with the most, and how artists and creatives can get involved with future issues. 

 

Kristi challenges us to listen to God, lay down your desires at His feet, and let God move on your behalf about the desires in your heart.
