My Big Story with Christopher Swan

Join me, Christopher Swan, as I go on a big adventure, traveling the USA, interviewing uniquely inspiring people, and ultimately celebrating their stories and the things that makes us different

Christopher Swan (that’s me!) is on a big adventure! In My Big Story with Christopher Swan, I’m literally on a plane, train, or automobile, traveling the USA (aiming for the world!), interviewing uniquely inspiring people.

I’m uncovering stories from voices that may not be heard, crossing boundaries of diversity, uniqueness, and beliefs — stories that inherently celebrate our differences. These thought-provoking conversations are with people that have taken chances and carved out uncommon paths.

Through these interviews and stories, I’m uncovering ideas, dreams, and truths — and in turn, MY big story unfolds — to create a world where everyone belongs.

Guests have included social good advocates, artists, small business owners, corporate and nonprofits leaders, actors, musicians, chefs, drag queens, creatives, and anyone with a big inspiring story.

I started with season two of My Big Story and immediately found myself captivated. Christopher, the host, is this season traveling the country and having heartfelt conversations with people who are doing what they can to promote inclusivity in our nation and beyond. The conversations (and I use that term, not interviews) make you feel like you are sitting with friends who have known each other for years. Christopher's questions are pertinent and well planned, with a natural conversational style. Even when discussing difficult topics he is able to do so with respect for the person and where they are in their life. In times where we are inundated with negativity this podcast is a refreshing break from it all. I eagerly await each week's release, and I hope you will too.

As a newbie to the business world, I'm constantly searching for every scrap of intentional advice, critique, horror stories, and encouragement I can get my hands on. I found this podcast because of Tyler J. McCalls interview and I can say that I was totally blessed by this segment! I'm definitely going to breeze through the rest of these in the car this week. Thank you for such an informative and relevant podcast, keep it up!

I've been looking for a podcast just like this. An NPR-quality production with a thoughtful, LGBT perspective. Keep up the good work Christopher!

This is inspiring, behind-the-curtain stuff! Christopher's special genius is picking the kind of people and stories the rest of us are intrigued and motivated by. What I like most of all about the show though, is the conversation is real.

The last few years it has become so clear to me that sharing our stories helps others more than we can possibly know... I have been binging this podcast for the last few days and absolutely love it. I love the diversity of the guests and the topics that they discuss. It's an amazing reminder that we are on this journey together and our stories make a difference. I highly recommend listening to this podcast! Keep up the amazing work Christopher!
