"I started in the nonprofit space, fell in love with storytelling, and realized that business is actually a very good way to make an impact. I began to see that the companies I support are the ones I know more about than just their product. I align with their values and their story."
"The simple shift of realizing that as a business, you are a guide and not the hero, that your customer is the hero, is huge for businesses. Your role is like Yoda, whispering into their ear, helping them get to their dreams with your services and products."
"We're having conversations about what commitment it actually takes to have a successful podcast. It's about focusing on creating content that solves real problems for the audience, not just churning out as many episodes as we can."
