In Charge Social Media and Brand Buzz Network are excited to announce their newest members to the BBN Team 

The Brand Buzz Network (BBN) is owned and operated by In Charge Social Media, LLC, a social media start-up and management company with offices in Atlanta, South Florida and New York. Originally founded by Lisa Samples, from Life with Lisa, BBN has been connecting brands and bloggers since 2009.

Lisa Samples currently lives in Atlanta with her husband and two sons. With over 15 years working as an executive in "Corporate America" she finally left to pursue working her social media projects full time in January 2012. You can find her writing on Life with Lisa about travel, Atlanta, food/recipes, and other topics of interest. She is also a writer for Let's Play, a Dr Pepper Snapple Group (site that encourages kids and families to get active nationwide) and she is a regular contributor on SheSpeaks.com. Lisa has been featured on CNN Money, CBS Better Mornings Atlanta, and various other media outlets and has done consulting for brands such as Ford, Xbox, Dove, and more. She is currently the CEO and President of In Charge Social Media.

In Charge Social Media, LLC has recently decided to grow the Brand Buzz Network (BBN) and its team to help grow resources for both Bloggers & Brands. 

The newly appointed Community Manager, Deb Thompson is “living the dream” in a small northern Michigan town with her husband and teen daughter. She also has an adult son that flew the nest last year. She quit the corporate grind last year to pursue the things she loves: travel, food & wine, photography, and social media. She shares the story of her crazy life at JustShortofCrazy.com and has been a guest blogger at i.seekissimmee.com and hotelcoupons.com. She loves the opportunities that social media provides for people to live life on their own terms.

Deb has worked as a Campaign Lead for brands such as Sara Lee, Motorola, Meredith, Equal, and Silk when she isn't been busy blogging or spending time with her family.

The newly appointed Managing Editor, VS Grenier is an award-winning children's author, founder & owner of Stories for Children Publishing, LLC, Partner of The World of Ink Network, award-winning editor-in-chief of Stories for Children Magazine and chief editor for Halo Publishing, Int; as well as the host of the blog talk radio shows Stories for Children, The Writing Mama, Families Matter and What is Success. A California girl at heart and former fashion buyer (for companies such as Brighton Collectibles, Frederick's of Hollywood, and Torrid/Hot Topic), Grenier lives in Southern Utah with her supportive husband, their three children and the family's miniature schnauzer Taz.

The newly appointed Blogger Select Manager, Shasta Walton is a single mom to four amazing kids. She is also the owner of Faithfully Free, a personal blog where she shares her joys, struggles, and everything in between. Shasta is currently going back to school for Public Relations, and longs to move to California or New York. She has a passion for giving back, and hopes to one day serve as a missionary overseas as well.
Her love for social media began with her first Facebook food fight, and she hasn’t looked back. Sharing the things that matter to her with people from around the world, is one of her favorite things to do, especially when she’s doing good and helping others in the process. Shasta has had the pleasure of writing for I.See.Kissimmee, Day-Timer Moms, and Disney Events.

The BBN also has some exciting news about their new feature for bloggers & brands – they are now hosting a new Portfolio Service where blogger's media kits will be accessible to PR/Companies according to niche.

OWNING: Only One of You

Martha Graham, a famous dancer and choreographer in the early 20th century, wrote in a letter to one of her students: "There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium; and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, not how it compares with other expression. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open." Graham's words ring true. There is only one of you in the world: The way you think, the way you see things, the way you respond, the way you nurture yourself and other people, the way you go about doing mundane things. The way you love, the way you express, the way you tell a story, the way you write. The world will know of and witness only one you . The totality of you -- talents, nuances, thought proc...

Unmasking Narcissism: Lessons on Healing, Boundaries, and the Human Condition

  When I first sat down with Dominick to interview Stuart Wood, neuroscientist and author of Escaping the Void: How to Support Victims Out of Emotionally Abusive Relationships , I thought I knew what to expect. I’ve been a victim advocate for years. I’ve sat with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, and I’ve seen the way emotional abuse erodes someone from the inside out. But there was something about this conversation—something about tying narcissism not just to relationships, but to culture at large—that resonated with me on a personal and professional level. Stuart came to the topic of narcissism the way so many of us do—not through clinical theory at first, but through experience. He supported a friend through four years of leaving and healing after an abusive narcissistic marriage. And from there, he wrote a book that demystifies the confusing behaviors and manipulations so often minimized or dismissed, even by victims themselves. Why Narcissism Hits Home I come ...

The Comeback of 2D Animation: Why We’re Craving Realness Again

There’s something happening in animation right now that’s worth paying attention to—not because it’s simply nostalgic, but because it’s deeply human. As someone who works in the mental health and creative storytelling space, I can’t help but see these conversations about art, AI, and hand-drawn storytelling as part of a bigger theme: our collective hunger for authenticity. We live in a time where AI-generated content is everywhere—convenient, efficient, and often soulless. It’s not surprising that artists and audiences alike are looking back toward something that feels more tactile, more imperfect, more human. That brings us to 2D animation, an art form that has shaped generations and now, it seems, might just be making a comeback. Here’s what Language of the Soul podcast host, Dominick Domingo, had to say on this trend: There’s been a lot of industry talk lately speculating about 2D/traditional ANIMATION making a comeback. Recent articles confirm that although Disney has not greenlit...
