This week, we’re joined by the incredible Macy Schmidt — Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree and Tony-nominated music director, orchestrator, and founder of The Broadway Sinfonietta, an all-women and majority women-of-color orchestra transforming the sound of Broadway and beyond.

Macy shares how her dream began with a fireworks show at Disney World, the challenges of breaking into a historically male-dominated field, and the journey of building a business that uplifts and empowers women in music. We talk about her biggest career highlights, how leading massive productions all started with a cold-pitch email, and her surprising take on the question: can you be friends with your ex?
