In today's Sweathead episode, Giles Edwards shares with us how ISOLATED Talks was born during the early days of the pandemic to help people, both in and out of the strategy world, cope with crisis through creativity. He also talks about his feelings and experiences surrounding his father's death, and how they have helped him make sense of and carry on with his life now.
Giles Edwards is Creative Director and Founder of Creatively Memorable and Boringly Effective™ agency…Gasp!, founder of ISOLATED Talks®, and host of UK top 5 marketing podcast, Call To Action®. He also manages ...Gasp! Books, is dad to two much more likeable humans, and to quote Professor Mark Ritson, “a bit of a tit”. He remains annoyingly curious about most things.
Trigger topics: death, murder, anxiety, grief
