CX Decoded is our semi-monthly podcast designed to deliver insight from leaders in the customer experience and marketing industries. Each episode is designed to help you better understand the customer experience and the value it can add to your customers' lives.
Jessica Herring, VP of Member Experience at Loyalty Credit Union, joins CX Decoded to talk AI chatbot design, member trust, and why she skipped the NPS score entirely.
Justin Racine, chief digital officer at Geriatric Medical & Surgical Supply, joins CX Decoded to explain why B2B buyers are more emotional than the industry assumes — and why fixing employee experience matters just as much as fixing the customer journey.
Dexian CMO Kip Havel joins CX Decoded to talk about the expanding scope of the marketing job — from rebrand strategy to AI skepticism to why customer feedback nobody asked for is often the most valuable data a company has.
Brinks Home chief customer officer Veronica Moturi joins CX Decoded host Dom Nicastro to explain how a security and home automation company rebuilt its call center from the ground up. Moturi started as a customer service agent in 2012 and rose through retention and escalations before taking the CCO role. She breaks down why average handle time isn't a KPI, how issue resolution and first call resolution drive a 55 net promoter score, and how AI tools and a remote workforce cut agent turnover from 150% to 22%.
Sanity CEO and co-founder Magnus Hillestad joins CX Decoded to argue that content management has been solving the wrong problem for years — treating content as a marketing asset instead of core business infrastructure. He explains why real-time, machine-readable content is now a prerequisite for AI agents to build, manage and distribute at scale, what that means for AEO and answer-engine discovery, and why Sanity is betting its next phase of growth on agent orchestration rather than another round of point-and-click features.
Pete & Gerry's Organics CMO Phyllis Rothschild joins Dom Nicastro on the CMO Circle podcast to talk premium egg marketing, brand building and the evolving consumer journey. From a 30-year consulting career at McKinsey to the brand side at the largest premium egg producer in the US, Rothschild shares how her team tracks LLM citation scores, navigates Reddit authentically, deploys an in-house eggfluencer and prepares to launch a major 2026 campaign built around new proprietary research naming eggs America's number one trusted protein source.
Brian Mekka spent 15 years managing CX for 60 million Kohl's shoppers. Now he's doing it for 300 steel buyers — and the stakes are completely different. Charter Steel's director of customer experience joins CX Decoded to break down the Compass program, a multi-phase initiative five years in the making, built on VOC data, a McKinsey methodology and a simple premise: B2B customers expect the same experience they get everywhere else.
Ben Larsen has spent nine years inside a company that built its reputation on something increasingly rare in insurance: actually caring. Wellfleet Insurance — a Berkshire Hathaway company — has answered the phone for college students navigating health insurance for the first time for over three decades, and that white-glove service culture is baked into everything. Now, as Digital Experience Officer, Larsen is the one tasked with figuring out how to take that same care and push it through a screen. In this conversation, Larsen walks Dom Nicastro through the real shape of digital transformation inside a multi-line insurance business — the legacy infrastructure hiding below the surface, the student health advisory council that tells him exactly what Gen Z actually wants, the small and large bets he's placing on bot technology and agentic AI, and why none of it works without getting the data right first. Oh, and there's a Salem State College baseball reunion in here too. You've been warned.
Hayden Clark went from coaching wide receivers at Vanderbilt and working on Nick Saban's staff at Alabama to VP of Marketing at LGI Homes, where he now leads five in-house teams covering paid media, creative, analytics, local marketing, and digital experience. In this episode of CX Decoded, Clark talks about building a marketing team that prizes curiosity and soft skills over résumé depth, marketing to the emotional complexity of first-time homebuyers, and how LGI is using Sitecore CDP data to bridge the gap between the digital journey and the in-person sales experience.
Allison Kavanagh didn't come to this conversation to celebrate AI. The CMO of Inflow Health came to interrogate it. Her company exists because follow-up care gaps — the kind where an incidental imaging finding gets lost between a chart, a referring provider and a patient — can turn into a life-threatening failure. That's the standard she holds AI to: not whether it can generate more, but whether it can close a dangerous gap. In this episode, she makes the case that healthcare marketers who lead with novelty and scale are asking the wrong questions entirely.
