  • Feels Like Talking Shop With Friends

    I never miss an episode of Trade Secrets Podcast—Jamie and Emma make it feel like you’re just hanging out with industry friends who happen to be super smart. I love how they bring on guest advisors to answer real listener questions, so every episode feels practical and relevant to what I’m working through in my own business. It’s the perfect mix of professional insight and casual conversation, and I always walk away with a new idea to try. Definitely a five-star listen!
