“If you want to sound and feel like everybody else, you’re gonna get lost in the crowd. Those are the resources out there for people to follow the template and do what everybody else is doing. But it’s when you find that magical special sauce of what’s your voice and being creative and innovative but also very specific, and merging the literal facts that you’re talking about but also with that visceral way of communicating that is very intuitive to understand, that’s where the magic happens.” – Carrie Osgood
