No matter what industry you're in, no matter what your dreams and goals are, timing matters.
As my guest for this episode, my dear friend, executive producer, creator and showrunner, Marta Ravin says, timing and reading the room really relate to one another.
Timing is a combination of:
- emotional intelligence
- intentionality
- being clear on the result you want
- listening
- patience
- storytelling
- keeping your audience top of mind whether that's one person or a million.
Marta started her career as a standup comedian - talk about timing! - eventually working as a writer and on camera talent for MTV, VH1, Comedy Central and NBC before transitioning to producing and heading up celebrated live events, series and specials for MTV, Bravo, Nickelodeon, We, Oxygen and VH1, including MTV's Total Request Live, Nickelodeon's Kids Choice Awards, and VH1's Love and Hip Hop reunions. Marta has also created and developed original formats like Long Island Medium, and most recently launched The Sharpton Sisters on Fox Soul.
