Today we are sitting down with Arielle Knutson, the CEO for Oiselle, a women's running apparel business that's bringing confidence, empowerment and community through the transformative power of sport. This interview is so powerful for me. Arielle's articulation of leadership, team culture, and the tools that positively impact them are absolutely timeless.
This talk will help CEOs all the way to new managers, navigate change, build team chemistry, and to truly uncover a deep sense of self awareness in all of us. There are many points from Arielle that we can apply in life, business, and sports. That said, there's one that sticks with me. To a whole nother level in this conversation, and that's when she said, "caring so much is contagious."
Let that sink in...
Just imagine the power of this mindset on individuals and on teams. So on that note, let's jump in and soak up all of the goodness that this leader has to offer.

Special thanks to our sponsor, The Running Event!
We were at The Running Event 2023 in Austin, Texas in November and want to share a bit about our experience.
The Running Event, also known as TRE, is an annual in-person conference and trade show for run and outdoor specialty retailers, brands, media and other industry professionals from across the US and even the globe. It’s a great opportunity for those in the industry to come together, do business and make new connections. The Running Event 2023 was the largest in the show’s 17-year history, welcoming more than 4,000 total visitors and featuring 314 exhibiting brands like Brooks, HOKA, On, Saucony, Balega, ASICS and New Balance.
A big takeaway for us is that TRE is a lot more than a trade show. There was so much buzz and good energy at the event, and you could tell people were really making connections, doing business and talking shop—all while really having a good time. We loved our time at TRE, and if you’re in the run or outdoor specialty business, we definitely recommend you check out the 2024 event.
The Running Event 2024 will take place November 19-21 in Austin, TX, at the Austin Convention Center; registration is set to open mid-July. Visit TRE’s website: https://www.therunningevent.com
