from No Time to be Timid · host Tricia Rose Burt

My producer/composer Adam Arnone and I are sitting down to talk about what's coming this fall. We're talking a longer season (September all the way through May) and a brand-new mix of episode types so you never run out of brave.Here's the lineup: Guest interviews every other Thursday  Solo casts — just me, talking straight to you, filling in the gaps Manifesto Minutes — quick, punchy courage boosts on Instagram (Mon/Wed/Fri), soon coming to YouTube, YouTube Shorts, and audio tooAdam and I also get into how much my interviewing style has changed since Season 1 (spoiler: nerves → confidence), how I actually pick guests and how it's never about obligation, always about the creative spark. We also talk about why every single guest is a living, breathing reflection of the No Time to Be Timid manifesto.And the season kicks off September 24th with a guest I am SO thrilled about: Krista Monson, who spent 13 years as the artistic director of Cirque du Soleil. If that's not a masterclass in creative courage, I don't know what is.I also give a quick update on where you can catch me next: Podcast Movement in New York, sitting on a panel with past guest and Homemade podcast host, Shannon Cason. Support our sponsor: Interabang Books — interabangbooks.comPlease watch my TEDx talk, How I Redeemed 35 Years of Regret; you can also view it at triciaroseburt.comLeave a comment and share it with your friends — it helps the story reach a broader audience!Subscribe to, review, and spread the word about No Time to Be Timid No Time to Be Timid is written and produced by me, Tricia Rose Burt.
