  • An Interviewer with a Generous Heart and Unique Insights

    Listened to my first episode of this podcast - the epidote with Betsy Parker. Can’t wait to catch up on all the past episodes - looking at culture through different lenses of experience… In the case of this episode, the culture of cultivating and incubating talent - and an approach about giving someone an opportunity versus filling a job.

  • Weekly Gems

    Thursdays have been a weekly gem! This was the podcast I didn’t know I needed this year.

    Every Thursday feels like listening to a mentor speak to you, just over a podcast. Rooted in the facts, experiences, and industry knowledge - I can confidently take nuggets and apply them to how I navigate this space. It’s really energizing to hear from people in different industries that I didn’t know about. The variety provides something for every space. We’re all taking notes Astor, thank you.
