Hi. We're Truth Collective. We help brands be ever braver through our two specializations: brand identity and brand activation. Being an AOR. Yawn.
Exaggerating numbers to make a book of lists. Filling out timesheets. That’s not what creates remarkable, productive opportunities for brands. So we strip away anything that doesn’t make the work or the relationship extraordinary. We choose a model focused on headspace and productivity instead of headcount and capacity. And we develop strategy, ideas, and content that drive real results—because be

Our first two Applied AI Learning Labs for marketers sold out quickly. So we’re doing it again!
Registration is now open for IHAF Applied AI Learning Lab.
Most marketing teams don't have an AI problem. They have an adoption problem.
The tools are everywhere. What's missing is a practical way to use them consistently, confidently, and strategically across your team.
That's what the Applied AI Learning Lab is built to solve.
In this hands-on course, you'll learn how to integrate AI into your marketing workflow with clear processes, shared standards, and practical applications you can put to work immediately.
You'll also earn your IHAF Certification in Applied AI for Marketing Teams.
If you've been waiting for the right time to move beyond experimenting with AI, this is it.
Seats are limited, so register now! https://www.ihaforum.org/2026-ihaf-learning-labs/
Here's the paradox of AI:
As technology gets better, humanity matters more than ever.
When everyone has access to similar tools, differentiation is harder to come by.
Taste, strategy, context and bravery matter more.
The future doesn't belong to the organizations that automate everything.
It belongs to the organizations that get crystal clear about what only humans should do.
A few thoughts from the front lines of AI adoption in today's video.
One of our favorite moments from our AI certification cohort had nothing to do with AI.
It happened when someone described a challenge they were facing and another participant immediately said:
"We had a similar challenge six months ago."
The conversation that followed was worth more than any slide we presented.
Technology matters.
But shared learning matters too.

Content marketing and entertainment are starting to blur together.That’s because audiences today consume everything through the same channels.
The same feeds, screens and devices are fighting for the same limited attention.
A podcast from a brand competes with a podcast from a creator.
A brand video competes with Netflix, YouTube, and TikTok.
The audience doesn't care where it came from.
Only whether it's worth their time.
That's why we're seeing more brands think differently about content.
Not as something they publish but as something people choose.

Will your next ad feature a person who doesn't exist?
New York's new Synthetic Performer Law puts a price on undisclosed AI performers in ads — and the fine print goes deeper than you might realize.
Here's what brands need to know before their next AI generated video goes live: https://bit.ly/44V7wmy
Everyone wants to talk about how AI can improve output.
Faster content, more options and better production. But what if the biggest opportunity is somewhere else?
What if the problem isn't the work being created...
It's the instructions the work starts with? The creative brief.
The more time we spend around creative teams, the more convinced we become that better questions may be more valuable than faster answers.

On June 18, Monroe County and the City of Rochester officially declared it Doulas Are For Every Body Day. It’s a celebration of the empowerment, choice, comfort, and advocacy doulas bring to birthing people and their families.
More importantly, it’s a powerful reminder of the barriers to care that Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities continue to face, including Black infant mortality rates that are three times higher than those of white infants.
We’re proud to have partnered with HealthConnect One and Causewave to create the Doulas Are For Every Body campaign to help turn overlooked support into an undeniable standard.

One of the biggest surprises from teaching our AI certification program?
Most organizations already have AI success stories. They just don't know it.
The wins are happening quietly inside individual workflows, hidden in private prompts, personal experiments, and one-off efficiencies.
The opportunity isn't always new technology.
Sometimes it's simply making existing knowledge visible.
A few thoughts on why visibility may be the biggest barrier to AI adoption right now.
