Magic Wand Fear Into Permission: Danielle Strachman And Kevin Leahy JUST PRESS RECORD
November 5, 2025·0 comments·zg
I love meeting people who are excited about exciting people.
And I especially love the ones who have each other’s backs - over their own forward momentum.
There’s something magnetic about the ones who walk past a person, recognize that “dog on a leash” energy vibrating within them, and say, “Oh, you wanna PLAY?! Let’s go.”
Kevin Leahy left NPR because he wanted to understand how things actually work. He’d all but mastered one little corner of the radio-to-podcast transition world, but he wanted to understand more than his corner. When he started pushing the idea out of his head, others helped him pull it all the way out.
Danielle Strachman saw homeschooling parents who were hungry for something more. Most people would have stopped at, “Yeah, but - what?” She took her tutoring ideas and figured out how launch a charter school that today serves about 450 kids.
