  • Corey Saban - Television, Social Media, and Crisis Management
    Oct 7 2021

    In today’s episode I chatted with Corey Saban. 

    He’s a former Emmy nominated television news reporter and sports broadcaster. Currently he works as a media strategist, helping companies deal with crisis management. If you and your organization have suddenly found yourself in the middle of a media firestorm and don’t know how to handle it, Corey would be your guy. 

    During our conversation, we talked about how the news business has changed since he left in 2008, balancing a side project or passion with a full time job, and how companies can learn from crisis management. 

    This was a cool conversation to have, especially since Corey was one of the very first people I interned for back when I was in college. Talk about coming full circle!

  • Wadan Khan - How to Find Yourself in the Social Media Era
    Sep 16 2021

    In today’s episode I talked with Wadan Khan. He’s a sales consultant, aspiring motivational speaker and positivity influencer. All around, a very intelligent, kind, and genuine guy. He’s originally from Pakistan so he provides a really nuanced and interesting perspective about culture here in the United States, which is something that we get into during our conversation. 

    Among other topics, we discuss the toxicity and divisiveness of social media, the truth behind self help gurus, and how to find your path in life if you’re feeling lost. I’m going to be completely honest here and say that this was one of the most engaging and  and compelling interviews that I’ve ever done on the podcast. Wadan is truly a great guy and I highly recommend that you check him out and give him a follow, because he’s definitely going places. 

    To connect with Wadan, follow him on LinkedIn, Clubhouse, and Instagram.

  • Jacquie Trevizo - How Creatives Can Thrive
    Sep 9 2021

    In today’s episode I chatted with Jacquie Trevizo. She’s a wardrobe stylist and creative with a passion for the fashion industry. 

    During our hour long conversation, we talked about her impressive work history, which includes serving as a fashion consultant for a video game, which I didn’t even know was a thing, and how the fashion industry has evolved over the years. It’s a fascinating discussion for people like me who didn’t know much about what actually goes into the fashion industry and the amount of work that’s put into it. I was super impressed with Jacquie and her creativity and work ethic, to say the least. I learned a lot, and hopefully you will too.
