Cwamne ,

Top notch

The I Am CEO podcast is top notch. It's such a real and authentic podcast. The guests have amazing stories and I think because the show isn't centered around the Elon Musks and Jeff Bezos of the world, but everyday CEOs who are out there hustling. Not only do you get good stories, but great CEO hacks and nuggets. Keep up the great work Gresham.

Great show!

Had the pleasure of interviewing with CEO Nation back in May and Gresham was an awesome host! I definitely recommended this podcast!

Roberts RN BSN ,

Great variety of founder stories!

It can be challenging for people, especially women, who are in identity consuming roles such as teachers, nurses, Moms etc to think of doing anything else beyond what they are currently doing. As someone who works as a nurse, I am thrilled to see that Gresham chooses to feature a variety of founders who did not go to school for business or marketing. - Amelia Jael @rn_solutions
