    669 - Aya Hojadova Joins the Show’s Hall of Fame

    The Public Access Podcast 669 - Aya Hojadova Joins the Show’s Hall of Fame Aya Hojadova returns for her fifth appearance on The Public Access Podcast, and that means one thing: Hall of Fame status. Rusty Diamond welcomes Aya back for Episode 669 before the two dive into another wide open conversation about podcasting, entrepreneurship, business, connection, and figuring shit out while you're actually doing it. A big part of this episode goes behind the scenes of podcasting. What do you do when guests don't show up? Should guests put down a refundable deposit? Can a five minute alignment call save hours of wasted work? And how do you know whether somebody is actually going to be a great podcast guest? Aya shares lessons from hosting the Rise + Rebel Podcast, including her approach to attracting guests organically and connecting with people before recording. Rusty shares what he's learned after years of interviewing people and why experience doesn't mean pretending you've got every answer. It's also a conversation about entrepreneurship, visibility, reinvention, trusting your instincts, learning from other people, and building something that actually feels like yours. Five appearances later, Aya isn't just another guest. She's officially in the Hall of Fame.

    668 - The Conversations We Are Afraid to Have with Marianne E. Murphy

    The Public Access Podcast 668 - The Conversations We Are Afraid to Have with Marianne E. Murphy Marianne E. Murphy joins Rusty Diamond for Episode 668 for a deeply human conversation about mental wellness, suicidal ideation, survival, storytelling and turning lived experience into purpose. Marianne is a writer, speaker and founder of Dance Walking Fool, INC. Her work in suicide prevention and social emotional learning is rooted in decades of lived experience. After surviving major mental health crises and psychiatric hospitalizations, Marianne transformed her experiences into a mission to help others feel less alone and make difficult conversations easier to have. We talk about mental wellness, peer support, grief, somatic coping skills, storytelling, learning, advocacy and the strange, messy process of continuing to move forward. Marianne also shares the philosophy and story behind Dance Walking Fool and her journey from personal survival to public advocacy. This conversation goes where meaningful conversations sometimes have to go. Into the uncomfortable. Into the human. Into the shit we usually wish came with an instruction manual.
