  • Love Having Multiple Guests per Episode!

    I really enjoy the format of Deb's show where she invites multiple guests who share the same field of expertise. The guests build on each other's ideas, which leads to a more meaningful conversation compared to having just one guest.

    Deb does an excellent job of guiding the dialogue, allowing each guest to share their insights in a way that is beneficial to the listener.

    I appreciate the variety of guests and topics Deb covers, which keeps the show fresh and engaging. I highly recommend tuni... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Imposter Syndrome with Jackie Cote, MJ Fievre & Leslie Marsh #631
Q: How do you move beyond impostor syndrome?
Build a supportive network, develop concrete skills, reframe the internal story, and act despite fear. Acknowledge the feeling, then shift focus to practical steps and community support, treating setbacks as temporary lessons rather than identity.
Imposter Syndrome with Jackie Cote, MJ Fievre & Leslie Marsh #631
Q: What is your definition of impostor syndrome?
Various guests describe it as a voice or feeling that you're not good enough, a warning sign, or a test of whether you're aligned with your true path. It can be a clue to reflect, learn, and grow, not a verdict on your worth.
Musicals with Kristin Hanggi, Nico Juber & Carrie Murray #620
Q: What is next for the show and what is next for each of you?
Kristin and Nico discuss the Los Angeles production learnings and ongoing work to refine the book for a future New York run, while Carrie talks about continuing to grow Carry On and explore future projects.
Humor with Amber J. Lawson, Cathy Nesbitt & Steve Waverly #622
Q: From each of your perspectives, what is the value of humor beyond the obvious benefits?
Humor strengthens relationships, boosts health, and helps people connect on a primal level, while also providing a framework to cope with life's heaviness and move through challenges with resilience.
Authorhood with April Davila, Brenda Knight & Rob Lange #548
Q: What is a non-negotiable element of an author's platform?
An owned channel like an email newsletter; social media can change or disappear, but an owned list helps you reach your audience long-term.
