First, I asked women how they would like to be described. I ran informal polls, collected data, and used feedback to form a numbers-and-criticism-free, empowering size chart. I paired each size with positive descriptors to make every size feel distinctly valuable. The hang tag reinforced this idea. It read, “Help us celebrate the unique capabilities of everybody, while discovering your perfect fit.” Reigns’ size chart met the consumer in her most vulnerable place, held her hand, and told her she was beautiful at any size. Above all, it suggested size has nothing to do with worth. Evidenced by customers’ reactions, it had the desired effect. One of the first ladies to stroll into my pop-up store tried on a coat in size healthy figure, but needed to size up. When I told her the next size was “bombshell,” a smile erupted across her face. “Hell yeah, I’m a bombshell!” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1751129969017-Q4RZUBQIJ9EBYVTBUPOH/eqluxe_august2020_reigns-1-2045.jpg curiositea - EMPATHY + OPPORTUNITY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1751130358678-JOEGIRXIIIP453KK9AG9/gallops_articleandbreeches-7692.jpg curiositea - EMPATHY + OPPORTUNITY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1751130388351-EMRFR9HF89F8RHUXBHP6/horseandstyle_magazine_reigns.jpg curiositea - EMPATHY + OPPORTUNITY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1751130496168-9XQ6QDLRLS4H167NNRN6/eqluxe_august2020_reigns-2120.jpg curiositea - EMPATHY + OPPORTUNITY https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/fightingdisinformation monthly 0.5 2025-07-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/2689d096-f936-4929-baae-0646e38ca853/pauline-hoffman-infodemic-vaccine.jpg curiositea - Curiositea in Review: Ep. 7 - POWERFUL TAKEAWAYS 1. “Care Before You Share” Pauline emphasized the importance of pausing before reposting content online. In a world flooded with headlines and hot takes, taking a moment to verify information can help stop the spread of falsehoods. 2. Critical Thinking Is a Practice, Not a Trait It’s not about being “smart.” It’s about being curious and reflective. Thinking critically means questioning sources, understanding context, and being open to updating your views when presented with new evidence. 3. Disinformation Is Often Emotional, Not Logical People fall for disinformation not because they’re unintelligent, but because they feel unheard, scared, or overwhelmed. Pauline reminded us that empathy is essential when discussing misinformation with others. 4. Social Media Is the New Word-of-Mouth on Steroids Platforms amplify both good and bad information rapidly. The speed and scale make it easier for falsehoods to go viral and harder to pull them back once they do. 5. Real-World Harm Is Happening Whether it’s the Sandy Hook lawsuits or the Dominion Voting case, disinformation isn’t harmless. It can ruin reputations, destroy trust, and in some cases, even threaten lives. https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/glensoriginstory monthly 0.5 2025-07-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/da875c85-2316-4a92-9c59-fcca76c84997/glen-metal-factory-concept-nest-founder-history-1.png curiositea - UNAUTHORIZED FIELD TRIPS + BAGS OF IDEAS - BRINGING ORDER TO A PILE OF METAL In my mid-twenties, I worked part time as driver for a company that tested metals. Simply put, my primary job was to drive to four or five foundries in the area, rub shoulders with the employees of these foundries (my early experience with customer relations), and collect and transport these pieces of metal to be tested with specific technical instructions. Additionally, I would deliver the metal that had been tested along with a detailed report back to the foundries. It was interesting. A number of these metal components were for aircraft engines and other specialty needs that would be subjected to heavy stress, heat, cold, and other testing processes. However, there was a problem at the metal testing facility. Metal pieces were getting lost or mixed-up. Occasionally, the testing results were lost, separated, or misplaced. This wasn’t surprising given the messy nature of their process. Prior to me coming along, the accepted “workflow” was dumping metal and testing requirements into a pile on the floor. I suggested, “What if we painted sections of the shop floor with a matrix format that had specific sections for each of the foundries we did business with? Incoming metal and related documentation would be on the left side of the loading dock and the outgoing materials would be on the right side.” When put into practice, this idea made a big (measurable) difference right away. The owner gave me some coveted tire rims as a thank-you present. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/65a1a06b-56f7-4757-88cd-9bb5195be225/egg-guppy-bowl.jpg curiositea - UNAUTHORIZED FIELD TRIPS + BAGS OF IDEAS - GUPPY BOWL IS BORN Several years ago, I shared this dilemma with my best friend and wife. Together, we came up with the thought, “Why not sell the ideas to those who can do something with them, and perhaps we get a piece of the action along the way?” That’s how Guppy Bowl was born. Yes, the name was cheekily inspired by a certain reality TV show about… Alpha fish. Progress was slow until I teamed up with a creative friend, Savannah, who I call “Sav”. We clicked instantly. We had creative energy that could light up a room – and often did. Later, Matt joined the crew. He is our tech and ops guru, researcher, and “The Idea Assassin.” You’re probably familiar with the one who says, “it’s already been done,” or brings up sites and apps in similar spaces almost instantaneously. He is a necessary rain on our parade, filtering and fine-sorting our concepts; he identifies the ideas that needs to be “kicked out of the nest” and challenges others to be bolder. https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/peanut-butter-amp-polymaths-how-do-you-measure-intelligence monthly 0.5 2025-05-16 https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/critical-thinking-compassion monthly 0.5 2025-04-24 https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/da-bomb-fizzers-founders monthly 0.5 2024-04-10 https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/law-digital-addiction monthly 0.5 2024-04-10 https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/structure-tangents monthly 0.5 2025-06-03 https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/gumption-creativity monthly 0.5 2025-06-03 https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/entreprenuers-adhd monthly 0.5 2025-06-03 https://www.conceptnest.co/curiositea/blog-post-title-one-dw2y2 monthly 0.5 2025-06-03 https://www.conceptnest.co/home daily 1.0 2025-10-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/05897978-e6bd-4177-983e-3e537cacf770/curiositea-podcast-concept-nest-eggshell-teacup-ideas-blue.png https://www.conceptnest.co/connect daily 0.75 2026-01-29 https://www.conceptnest.co/featured-maker-application daily 0.75 2023-01-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/17c7e8c1-578d-480a-ada5-dc76988d225c/unsplash-image-jid7TSoa02c.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1674781303766-44TL998I2WJTR2ZWG78M/unsplash-image-5fCR27iX1UY.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1674781682983-ON2F9UDA8E0RFMUGPOOD/unsplash-image-4oWSXdeAS2g.jpg https://www.conceptnest.co/questionnaire daily 0.75 2023-11-10 https://www.conceptnest.co/influence daily 0.75 2025-06-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1691553492324-TT3DUOYQE6VHWTNW4TI3/image-asset.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1702432478540-P7UZD806E1U4VMVV6HSA/image-asset.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1702432418949-DDDU50P561ISYXC3R48N/image-asset.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1702432231688-L7UOZL3PUPF4H6OU362X/image-asset.jpeg https://www.conceptnest.co/one-liners daily 0.75 2024-05-07 https://www.conceptnest.co/aboutconceptnest daily 0.75 2026-01-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1674171498221-FNR5MUHFHPG0W8H6FTRQ/unsplash-image-fp4y6MkKyc4.jpg about https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1674171958300-I74FJ5ZEHFDR1XIZY6XZ/unsplash-image-XTMlLIYZYpg.jpg about https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1674172233053-I6C04M3SQ2LRJQHTNKW9/unsplash-image-3WgPZbsDSkE.jpg about https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/c6e94966-4ecb-41ad-92a8-d9da8136893a/unsplash-image-cw1MAVs4wV8.jpg about https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/1674172072556-UXR409U1AJN4PWTEKSXD/unsplash-image-1a_Q4pGRNpE.jpg about https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/a69f6c39-e717-4542-86a5-08df7f4a0959/values-producttype-3-mindfulness.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/844a047c-f5c2-4046-94a3-5e9ac7d44277/values-producttype-6-humanconnection.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/7bc96563-2816-4c13-8b0c-2ef61ca736e0/values-producttype-4-silliness.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/bd7e4deb-e1bf-444e-87ee-c73019bf1d27/values-producttype-2-sustainability.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/21848751-3913-49a3-9dda-b150f5c98e41/values-producttype-1-creativity.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/bf2dd0c6-0902-45ce-ab13-eb38551337d1/values-producttype-5-DEI.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/113936fb-af27-4cd3-99ac-f71c999f83f6/intangible-1-11.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/78940add-d5af-46ff-9917-1b61d9b12c2c/intangible-12.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63c9b5346d47c60a0e09f6dc/9f00f031-3ae8-4f1f-9eb6-308d4f4a9774/image-asset.jpg https://www.conceptnest.co/store-1-2-1 daily 0.75 2024-02-08
