On this week’s episode of the Unstuck Career podcast, host Ken Williams sits down with Denise Metzger—a professional celebrant, storyteller, and self-described “Tasmanian unicorn.” Denise’s colorful approach to life and career emerged from deeply personal experiences, most notably her journey navigating her daughter’s leukemia diagnosis and how that led her to transform traditional memorials into vibrant, joy-filled celebrations of life.

From the origins of her company Surprise Invite to her philosophy that “life is the ultimate surprise party,” Denise inspires listeners to reframe have-tos as get-tos, find gratitude even in hardship, and create careers—and lives—on their own terms.

Tune in for an uplifting, thought-provoking conversation that will challenge your perspective on the unexpected, and might just make you want to throw your own celebration, no matter where you are on your journey.
