Hello, I'm Naomi Simson — and we’re back with a brand new season of Handpicked, my podcast where real business owners bring me their real questions.

Season five is here (can you believe it?), and wow — the entrepreneurs have really brought the big ones this time. We’re talking about everything from how to motivate today’s sales teams to how to build a culture of recognition that lifts everyone — not just the loudest voices.

These are the kinds of questions that cut through the noise. No fluff — just real, actionable insights for anyone growing a business, leading a team, or simply trying to get the best out of their day.

Each episode is short, sharp, and packed with ideas you can use immediately. Because sometimes, all it takes is a new perspective — and a little courage to ask.

Join me every Monday for Handpicked.
