What if some of the most life-changing advice you'll ever receive doesn't come from a celebrity, CEO or self-help guru, but from someone you already know?

In the premiere episode of Extraordinary Advice from Ordinary People, host Kate O'Malley introduces a podcast built on a simple belief: ordinary people often have extraordinary wisdom to share.

Join Kate as she:

· Shares the personal inspiration behind the podcast and why she believes everyday advice can change lives.

· Explores why we sometimes ignore good advice—even when we know we should listen.

· Previews upcoming conversations with family, friends, teachers, neighbors and colleagues.

· Reflects on the advice she wishes she'd followed, the wisdom she's carried with her and the importance of listening to others.

Kate also reveals a piece of advice that has guided her for more than 20 years. When facing a major decision, a friend told her: “Go crazy for things that light you up.” Those simple words helped shape some of her biggest life choices—and ultimately inspired her to launch this podcast.

You'll also learn how to join the conversation and share the advice and life lessons that have made a difference in your own life.

Whether you love advice, hate advice, or aren't sure what to think about it, this uplifting and thought-provoking series will challenge you to look at the wisdom around you in a whole new way.

The most ordinary people often have the most extraordinary things to say. The question is: Are you listening?
