Jennifer Russell and Stephanie Walker: Teachers -> Innovators
Sam and Steph bow down to friends Jen Russell and Steph Walker in this candid and informative interview which peels back the layers of our education system and what it's like to become a teacher. Jen and Walker shed light on the benefits and challenges of the process and programs, the pivots the 2020-2021 school year demands and the pure joy their students have brought them (most of the time). After this one, you'll want to call your favorite teacher.
Nikki Chabre: Art History -> Global Nestle Lead @ Google
Sam's oldest and dearest friend, Nikki Chabre (literally they're born a week apart), talks with S&S about growing up in L.A., the magnetic pull of the East Coast for college, her post-college career pole vault from Account Executive to VP, a move to Europe for an even broader delve into Advertising and Global Client Leadership / Partnership with McCann Erickson and currently a little company called Google. Google her. You'll see she authentically believes in unicorns and rainbows. And then prepare to fall in love.
Ned Brower: Performer -> Registered Nurse
Ned Brower joins Sam and Steph for their first episode to discuss Ned's unbelievable journey from actor, musician, model, performer all the way over to EMT, Paramedic, Firefighter-in-brief-brutal-training to where he currently lands as a Registered Nurse... just in time for a global pandemic in need of health care workers. As the friend who initially introduced Sam to Steph, Ned is the glue that binds both their friend groups together, even to this day.
