Content to die for | Sophisticated copywriting & LinkedIn growth services for Founders & Entrepreneurs | LinkedIn Strategy for personal & business brands | Not a pain in the neck | Founder @ Vampire Digital

For thinkers, for seekers, for anyone feeling the tension of being human in an over-automated world. 

For those who are tired of noise, shortcuts, and of being spoon-fed content that demands nothing of them…If you are tired of all the clickbait… I offer you Thinkbait.

Beyond better content, Thinkbait is a rebellion, a call to think deeper, write truer, and create with intention at a time when speed is worshipped above substance. 

It’s my answer to a cultural moment that prizes automation over imagination, and optimisation over originality.

Creating the Thinkbait way means choosing depth over dopamine. 

It means writing that stays with your reader long after they scroll further, and language that refuses to flatten itself for the algorithm.

My work explores what it means to stay human in a system increasingly built to replace human nuance. 

I write about the philosophical implications of AI, the erosion of creative integrity, and the slow extinction of thought in an age obsessed with efficiency.

I am a Human Intelligence Defender and AI Commentator, speaking on the future of creativity, the ethics of automation, and the irreplaceable intelligence of the human mind.

With over seven years of experience working with global SaaS, B2B, and tech founders, from Harvard and MIT researchers to reality TV personalities, I’ve helped leaders build audiences that think, feel, and follow. 

My agency, Vampire Digital, is positioned as a deliberate resistance to the AI-content flood: a home for human writing that converts through connection.

Before founding Vampire Digital, I spent twelve years in corporate communications and began my career as a journalist, writing investigative pieces and cultural commentary that demanded rigour, and truth-telling — qualities that now underpin every story my team and I craft for clients.

If you’re seeking a keynote speaker, AI ethics panellist, or media voice who can translate the human condition into intelligent conversation, I’d love to collaborate. 

As a champion of human thought and creativity, I’m not afraid of voicing my stance, even if that means going against the grain.

And if you’re a founder, investor, or thought leader ready to break out of the content hamster wheel and create something extraordinary, my team and I can help you:

❗️ Command attention in your industry ❗️ Attract high-value clients while you focus on your business ❗️ Position yourself as the undisputed authority in your field

Let’s build something that outlives the algorithm. 👉🏼 https://calendly.com/vampiredigital/intro-with-zsike

I was recently invited to the BeWell Movement  podcast to talk about something many people feel at work, but usually struggle to name.

#Mobbing.

And I did. But I didn’t only focus on the the obvious, loud kind, but also the subtle, everyday behaviors that slowly wear you down and make you question yourself.

Among others, me and Christina discussed:
📍Why we hear the word “mobbing” more and more lately
📍Where normal workplace tension ends and psychological pressure begins
📍The small, daily behaviors that add up to something much bigger
📍The role of #leadership in creating healthy vs toxic environments
📍How the “success at all costs” #culture normalizes pressure and harm
📍What internal locus of control really means and how it can protect you
📍The dark triad of leadership: narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy
📍Whether leaving is always the only option, or if there are middle paths
📍And what a conscious career actually looks like, beyond the next “should”

We also talked about values.
About how to tell whether your career is truly aligned with who you are or whether you’re just following the next expected step.

👉🏻If you’ve ever had that quiet feeling of “something is off at work” but couldn’t fully explain it, this conversation might help you put words to it.

You can find the episode in the comments and (as always) I love to hear what resonated with you.

My #leadership workshop at Merck Healthcare was exactly as  a workshop with a high profile leadership team should be:

🌸Deep. 
🌸Intense.
🌸Courageous. 
🌸Curious.

And what made it powerful wasn’t so much the content, as it was the space.

In leadership workshops like this, the real work doesn’t happen when people speak the loudest but when there is enough psychological safety for them to pause, reflect, and say the things they usually keep to themselves.

#teambuilding at this level isn’t about icebreakers or forced enthusiasm.
It’s about creating conditions where leaders feel safe enough to:
👉🏻question their own assumptions
👉🏻admit uncertainty
👉🏻disagree without escalating
👉🏻listen without preparing their next defense

And as a #keynote speaker, let me tell you this: that’s exactly where workshops are fundamentally different from keynotes.

In a keynote, the spotlight is on me.
My role is to inspire, provoke, challenge from the stage, create an “aha” moment to the audience.

In a workshop, the spotlight is on them.
My role is to facilitate, not perform.
To ask the right questions, not give all the answers.
To hold the space steady enough so leaders can do the real work, with each other.

And when I do that right, I feel the energy in the room shifting. 
People stop “participating” and start contributing.
They move from defending positions to exploring perspectives.
They stop talking about leadership and start actually practicing it.

That’s the difference.
And that’s why I’ll always choose workshops and trainings when the goal is real and deep change.

I’ve joined several discussions over the years on #creativity , from panel talks and keynotes to podcasts and comment exchanges.

What they usually have in common is that people are searching for tangible, hands-on #tips on how to become more creative.

So let’s do that.

This time, I won’t talk about the research. 
Instead, I’ll share what I’ve actually tried and what has genuinely helped me over the years:

1)Engage in random creative side quests
Pretty much the “Yes experiment.”
Saying yes to things I would normally say no to just for the experience, just to see where it leads.

2)Build creative routines
Journaling. Writing. Giving yourself small creative tasks and riddles.
This summer I tried Austin Kleon's creative journal and for a whole month I completed one task per day.

*The results*
a) I felt more creative throughout the day
b) I learned new things and expanded my creative horizons
c) The creativity sparked by the book’s exercises DID generalize. After a while I started generating innovative ideas in completely different areas of my life, including my business.

3) Hang out with creative people
We are not coconuts falling from a tree. We are products of our cohorts.
The biggest artists and thought #leaders of every era were part of the same circles, clubs, or cafés.
Creativity is also a lifestyle choice. So choose people whose lifestyle inspires the one you want to live.

4) Start a creative hobby
I wrote recently about this, I picked up painting even though I had NEVER touched a brush before.
It has made me more observant of my surroundings and more mindful, which, interestingly, has also made me more creative.

5) Admire the creative people around you
Have you heard the motto: “Until it’s my turn, I will be clapping for others”?
Exactly that.
Follow creative people. Text them. Collect creative stimuli. Open your eyes and your heart.
Other people shouldn’t be a source of jealousy. They can be a source of benchmarking and inspiration.

📍 Below you’ll find a recent interview I gave on the topic, plus my article on my painting journey.

Now I’m curious:
👉 What helps YOU be more creative?
Ping me in the comments.

Bringing Georgia Panagopoulou to my vodcast, was one of the best creative decisions I made last year.

There. I said it. 

When we talk about rebranding ourselves, and finding our niche, we need to be taking our advice by people who have actually gone through this journey themselves, as this isn’t the kind of thing you can pick up from a book. 

And that’s exactly what Georgia has done, several times through her #socialmedia persona : Wine Gini.

She found a niche that hadn’t been touched in a new platform, she started experimenting with content, she then became a full on #entrepreneur and started her boutique #marketing agency for wine producers and stores.

We talked about self- leadership, we talked about mentorship, we talked about #burnout and influencer culture. 

And usually I jump directly into the topic with my guests, but not with her. 
I asked her to share her personal story. 

👉🏻If you haven’t already watched this episode, check YouTube and Spotify and you’ll see exactly why. 

…Damn, I admire this woman so much! 🍷

Rebranding yourself

I know Niven Postma dislikes the word empowerment… but meeting her was indeed very empowering 😅

We talk a lot about #mentorship in here, and of course, we also post a lot about #women supporting women.

We (and I) really like to celebrate big movements, panels and feminist campaigns. 

But women supporting women is not a headline.
It’s a decision made one REAL interaction at a time.
And as I’ve said many times, big-scale activism is not the same as supporting the woman next door.

If anything, I would say that big scale activism is actually easier, as an important aspect of supporting the woman next-door we don’t touch on quite often, is that it’s not just about visibility. It’s mostly about availability. Actually, literally, be there to support (or mentor) her when she needs it. 

And that’s exactly the case here.

Niven didn’t owe me anything.
And yet, she took the time to get on a call with me and give me thoughtful, honest advice on my book. Not generic encouragement but real, hands- on, tangible #tips that can help me immediately. 

That kind of support is rare. 
And it’s transformative. 
Because sometimes, when a person is hungry, that’s not really the time to teach them how to fish. 
That’s the time to order them a pizza. 

So Niven Postma:
Thanks for the pizza.

And stay turned.

Now that I met you, you’ll be hearing more from me 😅

Do you know what “disappointing #affirmations” are?

They’re the perfect sarcastic response to a world that has overdosed on toxic positivity.

“Everything happens for a reason.”
“Just stay positive.”
“Good vibes only.”
“Smile, it could be worse.”

Toxic positivity is the pressure to feel good even when things are objectively bad.
It’s the subtle (or not so subtle) message that difficult emotions are a failure of #mindset. That sadness means you’re ungrateful. That anger means you’re immature. That anxiety means you just need better morning routines.

But emotions shouldn’t be viewed as +/- but as data.
And data that gets suppressed, leaks.

When we try to sand down every sharp feeling into something Instagrammable, we lose something essential. Edges.

And edges create edges.

When life has sharp edges like grief, rejection, disappointment, injustice,  the healthy response is not glitter. 
It’s an emotion with an edge.

Anger in the face of unfairness, sadness in the face of loss, frustration when something matters and it’s not working.

Flat #positivity in an edgy situation creates internal dissonance.

So it’s not about good or bad emotions. It’s about emotions that match the state that I’m in, and the situation I’m experiencing.

Having said that… 
which disappointing affirmation matches your current morning mood? 👀

I’ll go with 1.
