Our Team

Podcast in Paradise was created by two people with a shared belief that the best podcasts are built through great stories, meaningful connections and a clear strategy for growth.

Between us, we’ve spent decades working across broadcasting, journalism, content creation, communications and podcast production.

We’ve interviewed world-class talent, produced content for global audiences and helped individuals, brands and businesses find their voice.

But Podcast in Paradise isn’t a conference.

It’s not a series of presentations from a stage, and it isn’t about selling a formula for success.

It’s an intimate retreat designed to give you the time, space and expert support to develop your ideas, strengthen your storytelling and build a sustainable future for your podcast.

Alongside our workshops and mentoring sessions, we’ll be joined by a carefully curated selection of guest speakers and industry professionals who will share their insights, experiences and expertise throughout the retreat.

We’re excited to welcome you to Ibiza.
