  • So grateful!

    I have been an admirer of Doug’s work for about 16 years now. To me, he is the go-to person for anyone who needs to sharpen their message to better communicate with their audience. Doug has such an endearing spirit about him-he can challenge you to do better without making you feel less-than. I massively recommend this podcast and all of his other resources (books and courses etc). As the locals here in California say, “He’s THE dude!”
