Preparation is the key to a successful interview because when you are fully prepared with reliable research and great questions, you are confident and the person you are interviewing feels valued.

As part of my series of interviews about “5 Things You Need to Know to Create a Bingeable Podcast”, I had the pleasure of interviewing Candy O’Terry & Jacy Dawn Valeras.

Known as Candy O for 25 years on Magic 106.7/WMJX, Candy O’Terry is an award-winning content creator who has spent her career providing a platform for women to share their stories. As the Founder of My Dove Productions and the Candy O Radio Network, Candy’s lens is focused on women doing great things with their lives. She is the host of The Story Behind Her Success weekly podcast and radio series, The Speaker Coach podcast, 16 Life Lessons Motivation Monday feature, and Candy’s Land, a 4-part music video series for young children during the pandemic. Her latest venture is the Nashville-based podcast series Country Music Success Stories featuring Music City Mentor, Jacy Valeras.
