I had the honor of spending an afternoon on the woodsy trails of NYC’s Central Park with Al Roker from the TODAY Show. I always get energy from talking about L.L.Bean’s history, values and Purpose – but there was something extra special about having this conversation while enjoying the restorative power of being outside in one of the world’s largest cities. Many thanks to Al and the TODAY Show team for helping us share the story of L.L.Bean’s outdoors heritage, commitment to high quality products and world-class service. My great-grandfather L.L. would be proud. https://lnkd.in/gg_HbUe5

While the classic story may be old- telling it to new audiences never gets old. And how refreshing to hear it through your voice and perspective!

It was such a great segment! L.L.Bean and your family’s story makes so many of us proud to be Mainers.

Shawn, such a wonderful interview and made me even more proud to be a Beaner. So genuine and authentic. Well done!

Love Al’s brand experience piece and Shawn’s thought leadership! “Experience the outdoors” and “Open 24/7 just like a #wafflehouse” truly sealed #llbeans TODAY Show spotlight.

Outstanding. One of the truest brands I know.
