So incredibly helpful ,

Incredibly beneficial

I rarely leave reviews, however I am consistently amazed at how helpful this podcast is to my life and my leadership! Not only do the guests have relevant gold nuggets that I am able to apply almost immediately, but the resources that Carey mentions are truly game changing! Thank you so much for all that you do!

Brings so much hope

Love the long form interviews so you can really HEAR from the people sharing.

Changed my mind

I have downloaded this podcast to learn about leadership but did not think I would listen to something for over an hour. I have changed my mind. The conversations go from good point to good point and are very back and forth. I always learn something. Worth the time.
