Part one of our Human-led Marketing Series rolled out last week at @andcocommunity with a pretty incredible bunch. We covered the ins and out of Ambassador + Influencer programs and grounded in a simple truth: brands are built one relationship at a time. Not pictured: our very great group of virtual participants. Thank you to the best team at @andcocommunity for supporting the experience + to @everwellwaterkefir for the gift of hydration! There’s still time to sign up (in-person or virtually) for our next two workshops: 
+ Events + Activations on Feb 19 + Brand Collaborations on March 5 Link in bio! taken in And-Co Community by @communityacademyco

Since launching Community Academy one year ago, we’ve learned something important: Founders and marketing leaders get the most value when learning is live, interactive, and shared with peers who are navigating the same challenges. So, we’re launching something new... The Human-led Marketing Series is a live workshop series (IRL + virtual) for leaders ready to move beyond transactional marketing and into community-first growth. Each session focuses on a core pillar of community—ambassador programs, events, and collaborations—equipping you with practical tools to design programs that last. Click through the link in our bio to learn more and save your spot! ASK: Please share this post with any brand + community builders who might be stoked to join ❤️ #community #brand #marketing #experiential #culture by @communityacademyco

Something new is here ✨ We’ve been deep in conversations with founders, brand leaders, and marketers who are all feeling the same pressure: paid is expensive, organic is unpredictable, and the old playbook isn’t working like it used to. Community is the answer. And we’ve built two new ways to support you: ✦ Community Marketing Audit — a clear picture of where you stand and a 90-day roadmap to move forward ✦ Fractional CMO Services — senior marketing leadership inside your team, without the full-time hire Our site is refreshed, our offerings are ready, and so are we. Link in bio to explore. Yours in community, Michelle + Christa #CommunityMarketing #BrandStrategy #FractionalCMO #MarketingLeadership #BrandGrowth by @communityacademyco

Our next BrandTogether guest is one of our all time fave humans 🦁❤️. We are so lucky that @lululemon brought us together 15 years ago and that we got to collab on repeat on all things community. Ryan has been at the forefront of countless brand events, activations, and internal moments, with a front-row seat to the evolution of one of the world’s most recognized community-driven brands. His perspective on what makes a long-term ambassador relationship actually work — for both sides — is something every founder and marketer needs to hear. This kind of two-way, lasting relationship is rare. Join @cahull, @meechiegrace + @ryanleier on July 9th to hear the full story. Free + open to all.

IRL brand activations are back, and the bar just got raised. We had a front row seat to this collab between @londrebodywear and @maris.dae, so we know it took a special mix of ingredients to make magic happen: + a clear vision, theme, brief + goals up front + a thoughtfully curated guest list + a stunning venue that created the conditions to go deep + guided grounding, movement and breathwork to get everyone present + aligned, purpose-driven brand partners + a nourishing spread as considered as every other detail + breakout convos that broke through the surface + high value, curated gifting + talented creators to capture the magic Every detail pointed to one feeling: being part of a collective, something bigger than ourselves ✨ Shout out to the dream team that brought this to life: @rmt_aleciadawn @chefmeg.thenutritionist @smthaboutjamie @socialbychelle @mongutierrez @shelbytianne @dr.sarah.harbottle.nd @samantharrayner @aydenkristmanson @ainsley_rose @soladesgagne taken in Deep Cove by @communityacademyco

Our dear friend and one of lululemon’s first global ambassadors is joining us July 9 — and his story with the brand is unlike anything you’ve heard. @ryanleier has been in relationship with lululemon for more than 15 years. He’s been there for the highest highs and shown up with grace and humility during the low points too. And lululemon has shown up for him through some big life moments. This kind of two-way, long-term brand relationship is rare. And we’re getting the full story. Join us live to hear Ryan and our co-founders reflect on what it takes for brand relationships to endure the test of time. 📆 July 9, 2026 | Live on Zoom
Free + open to all — link in bio to register. Tag a friend in the comments who needs to hear from Ryan. #BrandTogether #CommunityAcademy #CommunityMarketing #BrandBuilding #Ambassador by @communityacademyco

Join us on June 11 ✨ Our next BrandTogether guest is Kelsey Mulyk, VP of Marketing at @organikahealth Over the past 15+ years, she’s helped build some of Canada’s most recognizable brands—from @lululemon and @aritzia to @ea while also co-founding her own brand and marketing consultancy @momnpopshop Kelsey is known for thriving where many marketers get uncomfortable: ambiguity. She’s built from scratch, navigated uncertainty, and learned how to turn bold ideas into real-world momentum—and she’s joining us live to share what she’s learned along the way. Whether you’re a founder, marketer, consultant, or leader, you’ll walk away with practical insights on building brands when there isn’t a clear roadmap.

Some people just get the power of storytelling, and Kelsey Mulyk is one of them. From helping shape @lululemon during its relationship-first growth era to co-founding a purpose-driven agency (shout out: @momnpopshop) to her latest post leading marketing at @organikahealth, Kelsey has spent her career building at the intersection of culture, connection, and brand storytelling. Kelsey believes in the power of compelling stories that connect consumers to brands, and the story is always at the heart of whatever she creates. We’re excited to welcome Kelsey to BrandTogether for a conversation exploring: + Her learnings spanning in-house leadership and agency founder + How community building shifts across industries—from apparel to gaming to wellness + What it takes for challenger brands to stand out in saturated markets
 + Why the best marketing still starts with human connection Also: if you know Kelsey, you know this won’t be a dry marketing conversation. Expect wit, irreverence, sharp insights and plenty of laughs along the way. Can’t wait for this one. Link in bio. by @communityacademyco

Last call to grab your spot ✨ @karendanudjaja turned a side project into 6000+ retail doors, growing @itsblume one relationship at a time.

This is shaping up to be one of our biggest BrandTogethers yet—come along + bring your questions for Karen! Thursday, May 14 • 11am Pacific • Virtual, interactive, and FREE!

She turned a side project into 4,000+ retail doors. Nbd! @karendanudjaja, Co-founder + CEO of @itsblume, didn’t scale Blume with a massive budget or a viral moment. She built it one relationship at a time, with community at the heart of it all. We’re sitting down with Karen for the next BrandTogether to talk about what it really takes to grow a CPG brand, the lessons she wouldn’t trade, and how investing in community changes the game.
