Opportunity is around every corner — if you know where to look. First In Line connects, inspires, and empowers people by helping them see the next big trend before it happens. Hosted by Brit Morin, a serial entrepreneur and venture capitalist, each episode explores the behind-the-scenes conversations, technologies, and innovations shaping the future. New episodes are released on Thursdays.
5 Big Predictions For 2023
Every day, something new seems to be hyped as the next breakout business or trend. But, more often than not, the initial boom is followed by a bigger bust. And, when you’re trying to get in early, it’s even harder to get it right. In this episode, the season finale of First In Line, you’ll get a front-seat view of what’s most likely to create a splash in the new year. From the excitement around AI to how the recession will affect everything, Brit Morin will share how she’s thinking about the current trends, what bets she’s taking, and why there are still plenty of opportunities for you to be first in line for the next big thing.

The Future of Home Design with Chip and Joanna Gaines & Emily Henderson
Home design is not what it used to be. As popular looks start to make everything feel the same, it’s becoming harder to stand out, create the right style for your home, and maximize value — unless you know exactly what your house needs. When you have insider knowledge about the newest looks, best technologies, and DIY approaches, home design truly becomes an incredibly rewarding experience. To help guide you through the process, Chip and Joanna Gaines will share their invaluable wisdom and experience, and designer Emily Henderson will walk you through the new rules of home design.

The Unlimited Potential of the Creator Economy with Eva Longoria and Sahil Bloom
Social media isn’t just a multi-billion-dollar industry for the creators of the most popular platforms. Today, anyone can reach millions and turn their ideas, creativity, and passions into purpose and profit. So it should be no surprise that influencers generate more than $100 billion per year, and that number continues to trend upward as more platforms cater to creators. Because of that, the creator economy has completely reshaped the way we think of brands, e-commerce, and business, and influenced the way we consume media. If you’re a citizen of the Internet, you’re impacted by the content that finds its way into your social feeds daily. In this episode, actress Eva Longoria and investor-turned-influencer Sahil Bloom explore how to fine-tune your social feed and why there is still so much more room for growth for creators, new and old.
