200 episodes.

When I started the Programmatic Digest Podcast, I never imagined the conversations, friendships, and community it would create.

Today, Episode 200 is officially live.

For the first time ever, my co-host, Manuela Cortez, and I sit down to interview each other. We reflect on why we continue to invest in this podcast, what we’ve learned over the past 200 episodes, and why representation, education, and community continue to drive everything we do.

A few moments that stayed with me:
• Purpose matters. Sometimes you’re given a vision that only you can see. The responsibility is having the courage to pursue it and inspire others along the way.
• Every voice matters. Some of the most meaningful conversations happen when we create space for people to share their stories and experiences.
• It’s never too late to grow. Whether you’re just entering ad tech or leading an organization, there’s always another opportunity to learn, evolve, and make an impact.

Thank you to every guest, listener, sponsor, and supporter who has been part of this journey. Reaching 200 episodes is something I’ll never take for granted.

I hope you’ll join us for this special conversation.
