  • Slow down Matthew!

    I loved the episode w Nana Visitor and look forward to hearing more. I would love to hear the host hone in his craft a little more, slow down, be more intentional w what you say, breathe, or pause. I felt like he was wired on caffeine. Listen to cadence of how your guests speak. Learn. Apply.
