"At the Podium with Patrick Huey" is a multimedia platform (podcast, video podcast and newsletter) where we learn from people who come from different walks of life, careers, and experiences but all share one thing in common—they have stepped fully into the transformative power of saying “Yes” to the unexpected turns of their lives. And they are now using the power of their voice (or podium) to make an impact on the world we live in today. "At The Podium" is the intersection of art, culture, and big thoughts wrapped up in good old-fashioned conversation. To hear more from Patrick and gain deeper insight to all that is happening "At the Podium," sign up for the newsletter at www.patrickhueyleaderhip.com
