In this episode of Referral Worthy, host Dusti Arab interviews Natalie Koussa, a podcast guesting strategist known for booking meaningful interviews that move the needle. Fresh off a rebrand, Natalie breaks down why trust is the new buying currency, how to meet the market as it shifts, and why experienced founders need done-for-you momentum, not another course. She shares the mechanics of her Trust Tour offer, lessons learned from overpromising, and a practical philosophy for integrating AI without outsourcing your actual thought leadership.

A step-by-step look at Trust Tour: positioning, angles, story pulls, "love at first listen" funnel, tailored pitches, Airtable assets, and 30 days of support
Why the gap is widening between businesses growing and stalling, and how to reposition to meet the moment
Using AI as a thought partner while anchoring in your own frameworks and body of work
Systems that prevent overpromising and protect client trust
Natalie Koussa helps founders and entrepreneurs build their personal brand beyond social media by speaking on the podcasts their future clients trust.
She's supported 100+ experts to land interviews on the leading podcasts in their industries, and is the creator of Trust Tour—a bespoke podcast guest campaign designed to put you in front of new audiences and next-level clients.
Natalie's a former nonprofit Partnerships Director, where she was quoted in The New York Times, The Guardian, and interviewed on national breakfast radio (her first taste of building a brand in her pyjamas). She's a slow runner, an aspiring potter and has never left a bathroom without making a new friend-for-life.
