โOn March 22nd, I sat down with Olivier Vroom at the Seaport in Boston and recorded my first podcast episode. I had done public speaking, led workshops, and mentored dozens of students and professionals one-on-one. But this felt different. There was no script. No slide deck. Just two mics, two chairs, and a conversation that could go anywhere. It was both exciting and strange. I wasnโt just sharing advice. I was sharing myself.โ
โWhen we first hit record, I felt a mix of nerves and calm confidence. It reminded me of the first day at a new job, when you know you are qualified but still second-guess how you will come across. [...] Olivier asked thoughtful questions that invited me to share not just what I do, but why I care.โ
โOne of my first encounters with podcasting, besides listening to them, was being a guest on one of them. I had the opportunity to share my experience growing up in a blended family. Once we finished recording, I asked the host many questions about starting my podcast. She was very generous in answering my questions, and Iโm grateful for that.โ
