We are here at eTail Palm Springs and seeing and hearing the latest and greatest in e-commerce and retail. Question: Do you need to choose between AI and human recommendations as a customer? Why not have both? After all, don’t each have their strengths? AI in the retail experience is all the rage these days, but today I’m talking with someone from a brand that has been incorporating AI-personalized experiences and shopping combined with expert human recommendations for over 14 years, and continues to innovate today. Today we’re going to talk about how AI-based personalization plus human creativity and input makes an amazing customer experience at Stitch Fix. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome Noah Zamansky, Vice President of Product and Client Experience at Stitch Fix.

One Life to Love with Founder, Courtney Lalotra 37:32

This month we introduce you to Courtney Lalotra, Founder and President of the nonprofit organization One Life to Love. For Courtney it all started with a trip to India that changed her life path and she brings us along the way. She shares personal stories, from her own life and the children around her, that shows how her organization strives to empower vulnerable people, ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive and lead fulfilling lives. There are more than 18 million children living on the streets in India. Courtney and her organization bridge together people and their generosity to enable One Life to Love to make a difference in a child’s life. Join us this month as we learn the impact we can have when by enriching the lives of those around us. After graduating from FIT in 2010, Courtney took part in a textile research project in Northern India. What was supposed to be a 30 day trip turned into a life-long mission to rescue India’s abandoned children. A month later, Courtney did not return to the USA with the rest of the group. Courtney decided to take a step of faith and open a home for abandoned and orphaned children with special needs. In 2014, with the support of friends, family and the congregation of a local NJ-based church, One Life to Love opened its doors and began rescuing children from the streets and slums. Since its establishment, thousands of lives have been transformed as a result of One Life to Love’s unique approach. However, Courtney’s vision was never to reach millions through One Life to Love. Her emphasis has always been on the innate value of every single individual. She believes in quality over quantity, stating, “Maybe I can’t help 100, 000 street children today. But I can change one child’s life today, through love, care and provision. And if I help one and you help one, then we are genuinely changing the world.” (3:42) Courtney shares her story on how a trip to India started her on the path to OLTL. (8:14) Courtney shares with us about the support she had, from family, as she pursued a new life in India. (10:50) What were the early days like for Courtney in India, and how she created the foundation for OLTL? (16:29) What is an average day like for Courtney and OLTL? (19:36) We learn the challenges that come with the work that she, and her organization, do every day. (23:59) How did Covid impact the work that Courtney does? (26:24) How has OLTL and their work expanded onto a national stage, with partnerships with the police and government in India? (28:48) Courtney shares some of the long term goals for her organization. (30:58) How do they bring people into this conversation and ask them to share their generosity? (33:37) What should listeners remember most about Courtney and OLTL?
