Lisa Gerber: From Marketing Maven to Outdoor Podcast Pioneer

I think that they're just really willing to talk about things if they feel like they're in a comfortable and safe place.
Imagine combining your passion with your profession. That's exactly what Lisa Gerber did when she launched The Gear Show. In this episode of Podcaster Stories, Danny Brown chats with Lisa, the owner of Big Leap Creative, about her fascinating journey from a communications expert to a podcaster deeply embedded in the outdoor lifestyle market. Lisa's story begins with her desire to attract clients who shared her love for the outdoors.
This led to the birth of The Gear Show, initially focused on outdoor gear but soon evolving into something more personal and engaging. Instead of just talking about equipment, Lisa started delving into the lives of the people behind the brands. She shares how losing clients and conversations with friends inspired her to pivot the show's direction, making it richer and more meaningful.
Lisa opens up about her interview techniques, inspired by Howard Stern, and the importance of making guests feel comfortable. She also discusses how thorough research can lead to more impactful conversations. For aspiring podcasters, Lisa's advice is simple: just start and don't overthink it. Her candidness about her experiences, including winning a school award for a foreign language, adds a personal touch to the episode.
Whether you're into podcasting or just love a good story, this episode offers a blend of professional insights and personal anecdotes that make it a must-listen.
