Everyone asks me the same question… “What even is acro tumbling?” So here you go 👇 It’s gymnastics power. Cheer-level trust. And athletes doing things most people can’t imagine. Now you know why I never stop talking about it. Proud dad moment watching my daughter compete for #Baylor 💚💛 #acro #acrotumbling #bayloruniversity #ncata26

I felt the weight of time on this trip in the best way. A 70th birthday for mom. A retirement for dad. Long conversations. No rush. Grateful beyond words to celebrate these moments while my parents are alive and healthy enough to share them. Australia met me exactly where I was. I’ll be back but I’ll never forget this one.

I wish someone had told me these 10 things before I became a PR Agency CEO and business owner … 😉 From 24/7 crisis calls to mastering the art of saying “no,” every lesson I learned the hard way made me a better leader. Now I’m sharing these insights to help you on your journey! Tell me one thing you wish you knew earlier in your career 👇 #PRLife #LessonsLearned Ever wonder what it really takes to be a PR Agency CEO? 🤔 It’s not all press releases and power lunches. From midnight crisis calls 📞 to learning that every public statement can make or break a reputation, stepping into the PR Agency C-suite was an eye-opener. When I first took the helm, I wish I’d known that success in PR isn’t just about savvy campaigns – it’s about resilience, relationships, and staying one step ahead of the narrative. One thing I learned fast: crisis never sleeps. 😅 Another? Your network is your lifeline – those media contacts and industry allies can save the day when things go south. And let’s not forget how much time a PR Agency CEO spends communicating internally. Sometimes it feels like half my job is aligning my team and clients, not just pitching stories. Now, I’m sharing the 10 things I wish I knew before becoming a PR CEO – hard-earned lessons from long nights, tough calls, and big wins. If you’re an aspiring leader in communications or in business (or just curious about the behind-the-scenes of PR), this one’s for you. 🙌 Swipe left to get the full list of insights. Curious which lesson might surprise you most? Drop a comment with your guess or share a leadership lesson you’ve learned! 👇 Let’s spark a conversation about what it really means to lead in the business. 💬 #PublicRelations #PRCEO #Leadership #CEOlife #BusinessLessons #PRlife #LeadershipLessons #Entrepreneurship #Communications #PRtips #CareerAdvice #Business #Success #Entrepreneur #LeadershipDevelopment #SeattlePublicRelations #PR #PRSA #PRGN

Flashback to a week ago with the PRGN crew in Paris and Brussels 🇫🇷🇧🇪 A week of agency visits, meetings, strategy sessions, dinners, political stories, and nonstop conversations about where communications, AI, media, and business are all headed next. One of the best parts of this network is getting to work with smart people from around the world who are all dealing with the same challenges and opportunities. Proud that @feareyagency  has been part of the @publicrelationsglobalnetwork since 1991. (Last photo created by AI #iykyk @bwkostka @cb.kostka11 @chucklnorman :) ⚽️)

Business idea: turn your office walls into a community platform. We’re partnering with @columbiacitygallery and @seedartsseattle to feature a local artist every three months and participate in the @columbiacityartwalk . It brings new energy into our space, supports local creatives, gives our team and clients something fresh to experience, and helps nurture the neighborhood we’re proud to be part of. Community building sometimes starts with the walls around you. #SeattleArt #ArtWalk #CommunityBuilding #SmallBusinessIdeas #PublicRelations

Pat Fearey wasn’t always invited into the room. She found a way in anyway. Now we help leaders own it. 45 years later, a lot has changed but trust hasn’t. Aaron Blank shares where Fearey started and where we’re headed next. Read it now at the link in our bio. Credit for first photo: @pugetsoundbusinessjournal

@seahawks are in. Super Bowl Sunday. The game matters but the year and the people in these photos matter more. This one’s for the moments, not the score. 🟢💙 #gohawks

A live-action test of our group chat energy. Team Fearey did in fact make it out of our recent trip to @theescapegame . 10/10 would recommend, maybe next time we’ll see if @aaronblank can make it out on his own. 👀
