In this episode of Sweeter After Difficulty, Randy Highsmith and Brett Moore explore the meaning of authenticity—both in podcasting and in life. The conversation centers on the power of genuine connection, the discipline of active listening, and the courage required to show up as one’s true self in a world that often rewards performance over presence.
Drawing from personal stories and hard-earned insights, they discuss how authenticity shapes trust, deepens conversations, and ultimately creates work that lasts. The episode also introduces their new venture, Apex Podcast Co., and the vision behind it: fostering honest, meaningful dialogue that elevates voices rather than polishing away their humanity.
