Podcasts about Audacity

For Alex Sarian, relevance isn't a buzzword. It's a mandate for the future of the arts. As President and CEO of the Werklund Centre in Calgary, he's leading the largest cultural infrastructure project in Canadian history, a transformation that will soon make the organization the country's largest performing arts campus. But Alex is quick to point out that bricks and mortar aren't the real story. The deeper shift is philosophical: a move away from mission statements as fixed declarations and toward a practice of asking, "What does the world need right now that we are uniquely positioned to do?" In this episode, Alex reflects on the evolution underway at the Werklund Centre and the ideas behind his best-selling book The Audacity of Relevance. He offers a roadmap for leaders ready to create with their community—not for them—and makes a compelling case for why relevance is the most powerful strategy we have for building a sustainable, future-facing cultural sector.

Send us a textReady to name the fear behind a big career leap? We start with the uncomfortable truth: stepping into leadership is hard when you've rarely seen anyone who looks like you survive and thrive there. That honesty opens a wide-angle look at credibility, negotiation, and why “director” should be a strategic choice, not a trap. You'll hear practical pay tactics, a clear-eyed read on gender politics, and a call to claim the audacity usually reserved for the loudest voices in the room while anchoring everything in real delivery.We pivot into brand strategy with a surgical breakdown of Fenty Beauty, LVMH, and the “core asset test.” What happens when a revolutionary launch becomes industry standard and the parent company cares most about Sephora and Dior? The answer matters to every founder: positioning must live beyond a single hook, and product lines should pass the test of whether they strengthen your core. Still, Rihanna's two-billion-dollar empire stands as a masterclass in ownership, reminding us that downside cycles don't erase value when you build for longevity.Authenticity in entrepreneurship gets a frank treatment access, capital, and networks change the starting line. We separate story from spin so creators can plan with clarity. Then we look outward: a UN spotlight on persecution in Nigeria, the Sahel's power realignment, and why humanitarian language can mask resource strategy. Closer to home, we press on London's EV congestion charge and how shifting justifications erode policy trust. Finally, we talk about the UK's curriculum overhaul AI literacy, oracy, and media scepticism to prepare young people for a world where synthesis beats rote learning. And yes, we celebrate the launch of Sister Scribble, a premium stationery brand designed to bring back tactile creativity and intention.If this conversation pushes you to ask better questions about your next move career, company, or community hit follow, share with a friend who needs the nudge, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway. Your audacity might be someone else's blueprint.Sponsorships - Email me: hello@toyatalks.comTikTok: toya_washington Twitter: @toya_w (#ToyaTalksPodcast) Snapchat: @toyawashington Instagram: @toya_washington & @toya_talks https://toyatalks.com/ Music (Intro and Outro) Written and created by Nomadic Star Stationary Company: Sistah Scribble Instagram: @sistahscribble Website: www.sistahscribble.com Email: hello@sistahscribble.com

There is a peculiar paradox where many Podcast Editors, Managers, and Producers do not host their own shows. Our panel today explores the reasons behind this, including time constraints and perfectionism, while also highlighting the significant benefits that podcastING can bring to our careers and reputations.

2026 is not asking you to be perfect, it's asking you to be audacious. In this episode, I break down why the people who will win in 2026 aren't the most talented… they're the ones who are the most consistent, the most visible, and the most courageous. I share the truth about what it really takes to stand out in this new era of attention, why “playing small” is the most painful place to stay, and how your audacity becomes the identity that carries you into the life you're craving.

In this inspiring episode, TEDx speaker and entrepreneur Carla Singson shares her journey of courage, reinvention, and self-awareness in pursuing her dreams over and over again. From overcoming fear, shame, and uncertainty to redefining success as peace and authenticity, Carla's story reminds us that confidence and joy come from leaning into what feels true and right for you. Key Takeaways: Audacity means honesty with yourself: having the courage to go against the grain and live life on your own terms. Self-awareness is key to knowing when to persist and when to pivot; sit with yourself and listen to what feels right. Overcome fear by releasing shame: failure is simply tuition for growth, and your effort will never betray you. Confidence grows from competence and perspective: practice your craft and remind yourself that the worst-case scenario often isn't that bad. Redefine success as peace: true success is living authentically, valuing inner calm over external validation or wealth.

Hey besties

Physicist Stephen Hawking once said, “If we discover the theory of everything, it would be the ultimate triumph of human reason, for then we would know the mind of God.” Yet Hawking himself rejected the idea of a Creator.In this message we take on that question head on: Is it reasonable to believe in God? We look directly at Hawking's arguments and explore what faith and reason reveal about truth, eternity, and the divine.Pastor Dr. Aaron Weisser

In this special November episode of Coming Out of the Dark, host Ms. Lady O celebrates her birthday, the fifth anniversary of the podcast, and the life of her sister, Glynis Marie Boyce — whose memory birthed this platform of hope and healing.Titled “Becoming — The Evolution of You,” this heartfelt episode explores the beauty of growth, the lessons found in shifting seasons, and the truth that becoming isn't about arrival; it's about alignment.Through personal storytelling and leadership insight, Ms. Lady O walks listeners through the Four Pillars of Becoming — Awareness, Alignment, Audacity, and Authenticity — reminding us that every pause, pivot, and heartbreak carries purpose.“Because you're not behind. You're becoming.”#55andFlourishing #ComingOutOfTheDarkPodcast #MarquisWhosWho #TheEmpoweredLeader

In this episode, we sit down with licensed social worker and community leader Nyasha Oden, whose life and career are grounded in service, self-growth, and intentional living.

A journalist with an interest in crime and the supernatural is invited by a disliked former colleague to investigate a strange item that has come into the man's possession.This original recording is an audio presentation by Jasper L'Estrange for EnCrypted Horror. “THE GREEN BOTTLE” by Bernard Capes, 1902.

Episode IntroductionPodcasters lose downloads for three reasons: muddy audio, weak titles, and vanishing release schedules. This episode shows you how to fix all three—fast. We cover mic choice and mic distance, noise reduction in Audacity, basic compression/limiting so hosts and guests match levels, and trimming filler words. Then we rebuild your episode titles so they earn clicks in search (7-word discipline, power keywords, and when to include a guest name). Finally, we lock your cadence so subscribers know exactly when to expect you—no more Monday-this-week, Thursday-next-week chaos.Previous EpisodeCheck out One Secret To More Podcast Downloads (S4E14)—a quick hitter on titles that drive clicks and listens: Listen on Apple Podcasts. SummaryBruce breaks down three download-killing mistakes he hears in new shows. First, audio: stop recording on phones or cheap mics, get close—but not too close—to a quality mic (he uses a Samson), cut background noise with Audacity's Noise Reduction, and apply a compressor/limiter so every voice sits at a consistent volume. He also calls out verbal tics—ums, long “ands,” “you know,” and the dreaded “right?”—and suggests editing or mindful rehearsal to reduce them.Second, titles: remember that an episode title is the first—and sometimes only—thing listeners see. Keep titles around seven words (~55 characters) to avoid search truncation, lead with the listener outcome, and reserve guest names for truly famous people who function as keywords themselves.Third, scheduling: train your audience. Pick two days (he's aiming for Wednesday/Saturday) and publish relentlessly so subscribers build a habit. Fix these three and your downloads rise because you've removed the biggest frictions: bad sound, weak hooks, and inconsistency.Sample Transcript“The audio quality—that's the biggest problem I hear with new podcasters. Don't record on your phone. Invest in a good microphone, get close to it, and use Audacity's Noise Reduction to kill the hiss. Then compress so everyone's the same volume. Keep filler words down—ums, you knows, and the long ands. For titles, keep it to about seven words so Google doesn't cut you off, and don't put the guest's name in there unless they're famous. Finally, keep a consistent release schedule. You're training your subscribers.”Related Podcast Episodes• The RIGHT Social Network For Your Podcast (S3 E17) • Does Your Podcast Have TOO Many Guests?

Send us a Positive Review!Series Title: A Two-Hundred Year Old Mirror: How the Faith Expansion Journey has Always Made Christian Leadership Sweat! [Episode II of II]In this thought-provoking episode, Valerie and guest Casey McFarland dive into part two of their series comparing the dynamics between orthodox leadership and progressive membership in both the early Christian church and in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. They explore the discovery of the Gnostic Gospels and how their divergent beliefs sparked friction with orthodox leaders of the time. The conversation addresses the parallels between historical and contemporary challenges, such as the struggles around authority, the role of women, and the push and pull between rigidity and progressive thought.  The fascinating conclusion:  What we are experiencing is utterly predictable, has happened before, and is more about the frictions around community, cohesion, and the inevitability that some souls much grow...even in a correlated space! Did you hear their announcement about the Latter Day Struggles 2026 trip to Italy?  Listen in and catch up if you didn't!   Previous episodes referenced:  159:  LDS University Students Pressured to Not Ask Hard Questions 160:  Why Scientific & Academic Inquiry IS Spiritual Seeking!Timestamps:00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:20 Comparing Modern and Early Christian Dynamics01:12 Recap of Last Episode01:21 The Gnostic Gospels and Early Christian Writings03:45 Role of Women and Educated in Early Christianity06:40 Evolution of God and Spiritual Development07:38 Historical Parallels in Religious Thought10:38 Authority and Questioning in Faith18:11 Modern Reflections on Historical Religious Tensions24:54 Inclusivity and Development in Faith Traditions26:42 Contradictions in Logic and Authority28:16 The Role of Satan in Early Christian Debates31:30 Personal Experiences and Institutional Authority34:05 The Struggle for Inner Authority and Faith Development38:27 The Tension Between Tradition and Progress50:15 Invitation to Italy: Exploring Early Christian History53:38 Closing Remarks and Future PlansSupport the showSupport the show Listen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODES Friday Episodes Annual Access $89 Friday Episodes Monthly Access $10 Valerie's Support & Processing Groups Gift a Scholarship Download Free Resources Visit our Website

Season 5Hope is a confident expectation of God fulfilling his promises. ... Dr. Tony Evans

In this episode, I respond to a question from Cheddar Bunny on Reddit, who's just released two podcast episodes and isn't happy with the sound quality. They're recording everything on an iPhone and editing with Ferrite, but their voice track sounds way too muffled. The music sounds fine, but they're asking about Bluetooth microphones and how to improve things on a zero budget.I get where they're coming from, trying to be frugal and do everything on a phone. I've been there myself—I've filed for bankruptcy in my twenties and know what it's like to count every penny. That said, recording a podcast using only a phone is tough. The screen is small, editing is hard, and everything takes more time. Honestly, every podcaster I know who's tried going phone-only has ended up quitting because it just puts too many hurdles in the way.Sure, you can try improving your quality by exporting and cleaning up your audio with tools like Adobe Enhancement, but that's still extra steps and time. I really believe you'll save yourself a lot of frustration by moving to a computer. Even if you don't want to spend much, you can pick up something like the Samson Q2U microphone for under $100, and use free software like Audacity (which you might even be able to use at a library).If you do stick with your phone, here's a tip: speak directly into the phone as you would on a call (with the mic close to your mouth), instead of using speakerphone from a distance. I've done this myself in a pinch and it worked, but it was nowhere near ideal—took a lot of cleanup and definitely wasn't pristine audio.So while it's technically possible to podcast on a zero budget and just your phone, the end result often falls short of what you'd get with a small investment in some basic gear and a computer. In the long run, you'll thank yourself for making the process easier.If you want more help, head over to schoolofpodcasting.com—I offer coaching, tutorials, and an amazing community.

When we remember our deep belonging to this world, a fierce and tender courage begins to move through us. In this talk, we'll explore “spiritual audacity” as a sacred, embodied boldness—the lion's roar of the awakened heart. Through personal and collective lenses, we'll reflect on what it means to live true to our essence: grounded in love, guided by truth, and called to serve the freedom and healing of all beings.
