About Embark

What do you do when the national dialogue sucks? You start listening. And figure out better ways to communicate.I hear a lot of ‘I don’t get them.’ They’re stupid/crazy/too fragile/woke. You get the drift. We don’t seem to get each other. Self-involvement, lack of information or experience, blind adherence to a belief prevents us from seeing things from a different viewpoint. And there are many points of view, many sides to a story.If we don’t listen and don’t engage, we can't really know what another person thinks? And as good as we are, we're not clairvoyant. So get curious. Start with some questions. Let’s listen to understand, if not agree.This season’s Embark goes where few conversations go – to the other side. Or to many sides. Hop on for a little more conversation and a lot more ‘getting’ each other. All aboard? Let’s go.With Liz Solar, Voice Actor/ Writer/Communications Coach

So much for magical thinking. Change, unless it happens from external sources, is an inside job. Yes, it is so hard, we may whine, but so well worth it if it brings us closer to what we want and honors our values.&nb...

   Anne Janzer on the Writer's Voice

   Our voiceprint is as unique as our fingerprint, and we understand a little about how we use our physical voice. But how do we use a writer's voice, and what is it anyway? As readers, we fall in love with certain writers, their word choice, their attitude, the memorable characters that populate a work of fiction, or the distinct style of an essayist or non-fiction writer. Whether you want to make your emails more engaging/impactful/entertaining or if you're attempting...

   Collin Lieberg on Striking Creatives, Streaming and the British Invasion

   With two creative guilds (Writers Guild of America & SAG-AFTRA) on strike, can we look forward to a repeat of this summer's Barbenhiemer double-bill phenom next summer? How much longer can striking actors and writers face off with big studios? This strike affects many thousands more: Directors, script supervisors, hair and make-up, location scouts, gaffers, craft services, dialect coaches are just some of the essential members of a film crew. Collin Lieberg is Creative Execut...
