#3: Susan MacTavish Best - Hosting A Rave for the Intellect


Listen Later

She’s been called Martha Stewart meets the Royal Tenenbaums, and the facts of Susan’s life story rival characters from fiction.

After schooling in a Scottish castle and gaining a toe-hold as a journalist, she founded Best PR, representing technology companies through the rise and fall of the first dot-com bubble. That put her at the center of technology, business, and culture, and an offline matchmaker in an increasingly online world.

A natural and generous connector, Susan led a renaissance in the lost art of salons, connecting fascinating people to each other around food, drink, and merriment. As founder and CEO of Posthoc, which has been called “a rave for the intellect,” Susan’s craft comes to life for the diverse and lucky attendees of her events. In this conversation, she shares insights on the art and power of gathering in real life, and stories that impacted the direction of her multi-faceted career.

The world needs more people like Susan, and after listening, you’ll know why.
