*Please note: Substack had a glitch, so a few minutes of introductions were cut off, but the bulk of the conversation remains.
Last week, I spoke with Steph Colbourn, Founder & CEO of editaudio and Camille Laurente, Co-Founder & CEO of Hueman Group Media, about building mission-driven audio companies.
Some of the topics we discussed:
How They Both Got Started in Audio
Building a Business Around Values
The Reality of Running a Social Impact Media Company
Creating a Mission-Aligned Work Culture
The Future of Podcasting: Video, Discovery, and Creative Reinvention
Our conversation was the perfect way to end the official Women’s History Month. I hope you’ll check out my conversation with these impactful business leaders!

ICYMI: Back in November, I moderated a panel featuring Camille and Joni Deutsch, SVP of Marketing & Audience Development at Podglomerate, about The State of Social Impact Podcasting. There are some great insights and resources, and the conversation is free to access when you sign up for SoundPath. Unfortunately, Regina Larko could not make the recording but shared some helpful resources.

Well…Adjusting was recently featured on Apple Podcasts. Learn more and check out the show!
Join author, actor, and funny lady Robin Hopkins as she helps guests manage stress, set some boundaries, find a new apartment, and save a dime or two. And that’s important because social security is probably gonna be gone by the time you get there. Robin’s disarming, connected, and forthcoming style allows her guests to open up about what’s really behind all that self-sabotaging. Well…Adjusting is not NPR. It’s not credentialed. But it is honest talk about real problems Gen Z’ers and Millennials face today. And did we mention it’s funny?
