Author’s note: The Expert Platform podcast was launched in support of Tekton Press. Although I shuttered the business and put the podcast on indefinite hold, I’m keeping the episodes online on YouTube. I was fortunate to have wonderful guests like Debbie. I learned a lot from our conversation, and I hope you benefit from it as well.
Debbie Pace

This episode is full of value, and even includes an impromptu coaching session with me. Debbie helped me move past some of my fears right in the middle of our interview!
