Aurora, you lost? 🥹✨

Wild to see the northern lights in Colorado Springs tonight!

[Kara Raney @kararaney]

Flight 1989… coincidence? I think not. @taylorswift13 really just out here throwing easter eggs into my day-to-day life.

The devil works hard, but Taylor works harder.

[Kara Raney @kararaney]

Devastated for the skating community. 💔

My heart goes out to all of you. https://t.co/35nYe4e8oq

Anyone else at a loss for words watching the #U20WYNT last night? 😱 Head coach Tracey Kevins was…and wasn’t!

You're up, #ParisParalympics!

Good luck to our @ussoccer_ENT and @TeamUSA athletes competing 👏

I think content would be so much better if organizations genuinely asked themselves “Who the f*** cares” before creating content. 😅

Maybe a bit of an aggressive take but it genuinely could save a lot of time and effort for content that does not resonate.

[Jess Smith @WarJessEagle]

Marketers have used & abused the word “storytelling” so much that we’ve diluted what it is.

Not every piece of content is a story, & storytelling alone isn't the secret sauce.

Content can just be that, content. The question is does it engage, entertain or evoke something?

[Kara Raney @kararaney]

At @USFigureSkating, I spent a lot of time sharing these athletes’ stories through the #MoreThanMedals campaign & my last few days celebrating as they were awarded 🥇 after 2 years

Happy to see it come to fruition on an Olympic stage! They’ve been more than patient for this.
