In 2020 I started the What Would Amber Do? Podcast. My intention was to create a platform where I could highlight awesome entrepreneurs doing great work in the world and also position myself as a thought leader. As with most things in life, they evolve and so have I. As I continued interviewing incredible people I realized it had become less about my thoughts, and more about facilitating extraordinary conversations about the things that matter to my guests, and beyond them for the world. So I am changing things up! On the Conversations That Matter show I will be interviewing awesome human beings about the things that matter to them, in the hopes that by sharing these conversations we will make a difference for others. If you or someone you know is interested in being a guest on the show reach out to info@amberhowardinc.com.
