    Episode Summary

    Christa Avampato shares how she created Secrets and Lies, a live storytelling game show that brings secret New York City history to life. After surviving an apartment fire, cancer, and COVID shutdowns, Christa relaunched her show at Climate Week NYC with a focus on nature in the city. In this conversation, we explore what it takes to bring a creative vision to life when you've never done it before, how to partner with organizations authentically, and why rejection can’t stop you.

    • Becoming your own hype person (18:21)
