I'm Kyla!
A creator, lawyer, and project manager.
​I've also been called an Operations Manager, Enforcement Coordinator, Document Specialist, and Editor-In-Chief.
For over a decade, I worked in corporate offices and law firms, hiring and educating personnel, creating training documents, working as a cross-functional consultant, and implementing new ideas. And I loved every minute of it.
When I started podcasting in 2020, I was excited to learn new tasks (pitching to advertisers and editing audio) while completing tasks I already enjoyed (negotiating and managing spreadsheets). ​
​
I've worked with education consultants, medical experts, lawyers, children's book authors, and personal finance coaches to tell their stories through podcasts.
