I chose Burst Creatine gummies because as a busy producer working on this show — as well as TV commercials and original content for my clients, creatine power is messy and hard to travel with. Leave dry scooping to the meatheads, it messes up your gut health anyway. Burst creatine gummies aren’t made in some factory in China where your creatine is getting mixed with who knows how many other powders or medications they have being made there. Burst is made locally in the United States and has exactly 1.5 grams of creatine per gummy. I take 3 on my way out the door to the gym to get improved brain function, build muscle and speed up my recovery. They taste pretty good too. And since I can’t have a lot of sugar or chemical dyes, they are made with natural ingredients that fit my protocol so that I can perform at my highest level. Support the show

Recently Mischief was named 2023’s Agency of the Year by Adweek, Agency of the Year for a second time by Adage in 2024, Creative Agency of the Year by Adage and one one of the 20 most creative companies by GQ. Previous to Mischief, Greg was the CCO of BBDO NY. During that time BBDO was recognized as the most awarded agency in the world by the Gunn Report.

What’s holding you back from doing that thing?My guess is that it’s some form of fear. Having the right amount of fear is healthy and logical. It’s biological and we are hardwired to survive.But fear might also be keeping us playing small. In this episode I'm extending the invite to you to get out of your comfort zone in order to level up. I challenged one of my clients do this recently and they went for it. Instead of product-focused marketing, our creative idea was infusing some humor and storytelling with a key message.Want to see the new TV spot?
