You deserve to celebrate your accomplishments and accolades just like anyone else, don’t limit yourself! 

This was the basis around why Richard created his own talk show back in 2016. While you may think renovating an entire basement was the most difficult step, it was actually the technical side of things that Richard needed to acclimate himself to. 

When it was all said and done, his main goal was to create a space where people could come and celebrate themselves and tell their story in the process. Since going full-time in 2024, he has not looked back for a second but this is only the tip of the iceberg.

A big thank you to everyone who signed up for the drawing, but Aaron Caldwell was our lucky host for this latest interview. For those who remember, Aaron appeared on the podcast for Episode 94: Attitude, Not Aptitude

Aaron facilitated an amazing session with Tamar, where they took a deeper dive into Tamar's upbringing, the origin of the podcast and so much more! A session jam-packed with vulnerability so we would say it is a MUST WATCH!
