These episodes are a joy for me because I get to speak with co-workers in a more casual environment than most other interviews. This time around, we cover how our roles impact emergencies, fairs, and media interviews.
So kick back, relax, and enjoy the conversation! And as always, feel free to comment or reach out if you have any questions.
