Christie doesn’t just ask questions—she actually listens. I found myself saying things I haven't said on a podcast before. She's one of the most thoughtful interviewers I’ve ever spoken with.”

— ELENA BENSONOFF, FOUNDER OF WHOLISTIC, INC

“Talking with Christie was such a phenomenal experience. She is not only a fabulous listener, but she has the gift of quickly processing what you say and providing a guiding vision of how that knowledge could be used to make an impact. Amazing!"

— TAMMY BARLETTE, SPEAKER AND RETIRED FIGHTER PILOT, FOUNDER OF ATHENA'S VOICE

What Makes a Great Story for the Show?

We love stories that go beyond surface success—ones that reveal the real CEO journey.

Some of our favorite story frameworks include:

  • From Ego Trap to Inner Clarity

    A time you led from ambition, image, or proving—only to crash, burn out, or lose your way. What made you realign? How did it change how you lead today? Example title: "How Losing the Title Helped Me Find My Power."

  • The Identity Shift That Changed Everything

    A turning point where you outgrew a role, industry, or way of thinking. What broke? What breakthrough followed? How did your leadership evolve? Example title: "I Had to Let Go of Who I Was to Become a Real CEO."

  • Resilience in the Face of Reinvention
    A moment when everything fell apart—revenue, team, health, vision—and you had to rebuild from the ground up with new insight and deeper conviction. Example title: "The Collapse That Gave Me My Edge."

  • Leading Without the Mask

    A story about ditching perfection, pressure, or outdated leadership models and embracing more intuitive, human-centered decision-making. Example title: "How I Stopped Leading Like a Machine."

  • The Power of a Hard Decision

    A time you had to walk away—from funding, partnerships, a public identity, or an old business model—to stay in integrity or follow your intuition. Example title: "Why I Said No to $10M (and Built Something Better)."

  • Quiet Wins That Changed the Game

    Not a big flashy win—but a subtle, internal shift that unlocked performance, culture, or clarity. A personal principle or inner compass story. Example title: "The Day I Stopped Ignoring My Gut (and Everything Shifted)."

  • While we may highlight a guest’s book or business, the focus is on real stories, mindset shifts, and intuitive insights—not promotions.

Logistics

We keep things efficient and high-impact. Here’s what you need to know at a glance:

  • 15–25 min Zoom interview (video required)

  • 5-min warm-up + 5-min debrief

  • Built-in mic & webcam are okay (as long as they’re clear)

  • Strong internet required (wired preferred)

  • Quiet room + clean background + good lighting

  • Not live. Clips may be repurposed for promo

  • Release form is included in the guest questionnaire
