This week we’re joined by Melissa Bernstein, a visionary who found success as the co-founder of Melissa & Doug but discovered her true self as an important mental wellness advocate. Podium Pictures COO Melissa Forman takes over the show this week to discuss Bernstein’s journey from building a successful toy company to founding lifelines.com and spreading awareness of mental well-being.
Podium Pictures lives at the intersection of Sports, Media, and Philanthropy and believes in the power of an important story well told.
After "The Weight of Gold" premiered on HBO in 2020 and shed a crucial light on the mental health of Olympians, filmmaker Brett Rapkin knew that Podium Pictures needed to focus on creating more content that could make a tangible impact on the world through the lens of sports. The Podium Podcast was created as part of that mission and will give athletes, content creators, and other leaders in the space a chance to share their impact and their philanthropy work.
