Before the Mic: What Really Happens Before We Step on Stage
Description
Ever wonder what happens before the spotlight hits? Spoiler alert: it involves wigs, dad jokes and occasionally, a stage-rushing trivia fan.
In this episode, we’re recording from, where else? an airport gate, reflecting on everything that goes into prepping for the stage long before the mic goes live. From packing bags with mismatched shoes to prepping TEDx emcee gigs with 62+ hours of speaker interviews, we’re breaking down the behind-the-scenes magic (and mayhem) that makes an event unforgettable.
We talk about adapting on the fly, learning from chaos (including a surprise stage rush during trivia) and why perfect isn’t always the goal - authenticity is. If you’ve ever planned an event, hosted a conversation or even packed for a trip, this one’s for you.
Listen now for real talk, some laughs and a few travel-sized truth bombs about preparation, imperfection and how we turn unexpected moments into unforgettable ones.
