About this episode
Have you ever been excited for an interview, only to feel the energy drop the moment you hit record? You’re not alone. We have all been there and today we’re sharing our cringe-worthy moments when interviews didn’t go as planned—and how we turned them around. Today we’re talking about improving your interview skills by setting your guest up for success by crafting better questions, keeping the conversation flowing, and how to use editing to preserve your guest’s message while creating a seamless listening experience.
