#206: Why Community Still Wins: [Flex Uncensored with Jamie Russo and Stormy McBride]

Hi Reader,

What happens when three people who love marketing and spend their work lives inside the flex industry finally sit down and say the quiet parts out loud?

You get the latest episode of Flex Uncensored.

​

I had a blast syncing up with Jamie Russo and Stormy McBride for a candid conversation about community, hybrid coworking models, wellness trends, creative studios, marketing hot takes, and why so many operators underestimate the complexity of blended businesses.

We dive into:

• Why humans still crave a “village” even though our daily lives look nothing like one
• The reality behind gym + coworking, dog + coworking, and other lifestyle mashups
• Why creative studios inside coworking spaces rarely perform the way owners expect
• How residential real estate marketing offers lessons for growing a coworking brand
• My hot take on AI in content marketing and why it makes me nervous
• Stormy’s behind-the-scenes updates and why 2026 feels like a year of big shifts

This was a great discussion. Check it out if you've got a few minutes to spare.

Talk soon.
