CURRENT PROJECTS
The Last Humansᴵᴾ
The Last Humans is a media project interviewing the final generation to reach adulthood before the internet became embedded into everyday life. Unlike every generation after them, they developed a sense of self before digital identities, algorithms, and online personas became inseparable from the human experience—fundamentally shaping how the brain develops and how identity is formed. They are the last humans to fully develop outside of digital influence. Before they are gone, we are documenting their account of what it means to be human… so we don’t forget.
The Unconventional Leaders Podcastᴵᴾ
Each week, Heather Parady sits down with creators, storytellers, artists, thinkers, and unconventional leaders to explore how people turn what sets them apart into meaningful work.
Through conversations on storytelling, identity, creativity, and the deeper forces shaping what we create, the show pulls back the curtain on the outsiders, truth-tellers, and misfits forging their own paths.
