Erin is a phenomenal interviewer, and each episode offers a practical and unique insight into how we can make our workplaces a place we actually want to be. A great listen!
Erin and her guests always give great examples of how they’ve failed in very common ways, yet overcame their failures to make the best out of the situation and find success. It’s inspiring, entertaining and relatable in a way that makes you feel that you can use their ideas and inspiration to find success after failure!
I look forward to Erin’s podcast every week! Her energy is unmatched and every single episode is full of tangible tips for making work, and leadership, more fun!
I didn’t realize how much I needed this podcast until I hit play. Erin makes work feel human again — funny, thoughtful, and surprisingly practical. I always leave with one idea I can try immediately (and usually at least one moment where I laugh out loud).
Amazing podcast!! I recently started a grad program and this podcast has been helping me understand things from a different perspective. Erin is so positive and motivating while simultaneously managing to teach with intention! Keep up the great work!!
