Customer Reviews
Every episode has a new perspective I need
I found the episode most recently done with Ellen Lin. My biggest takeaway was when she shared, "Your dreams only extend as far as your lived experience" as we often want to do it all without having the experience to do it. Every episode I listen to I find true wisdom from all different thought and industry leaders. This podcast is a must listen to for anyone looking at growing, scaling, and leading.
Authentic!
Tricia’s podcast is the honest truth with real conversations! She has a way to make the listeners feel like they are part of the discussion and you walk away learning so much about human connection!
