Ep231 – From Near Death to Full Voice: Podcast Junkies' Harry Duran’s Inside Story
At the core of every meaningful connection is a voice—a story waiting to be heard. Whether we share it through writing, speaking, or conversation, our voice is one of the most powerful tools we have to create impact and find alignment in life and business. But too often, we silence ourselves out of fear, doubt, or disconnection. This episode is a deep dive into what it really means to find your voice, own it, and use it to build genuine relationships and a more purposeful life.
Today, I’m joined by Harry Duran—host of Podcast Junkies and founder of FullCast—whose journey is a powerful testament to the transformative power of storytelling. From nearly falling off a waterfall to building a soulful business, Harry shares how finding his voice helped him shape a life of deeper meaning and connection.
Listen in as Harry and I talk about:
🔥 The moment Harry realized he might die—with his voice still trapped inside him
🎤 Why sharing your story isn't just brave—it's essential to living in alignment
🤝 The surprisingly simple way to build real relationships (without being salesy or awkward)
🎙️ How podcasting became Harry’s secret weapon for self-discovery and connection
🧭 From following everyone else’s path to finally claiming his own—Harry’s turning point
💬 The power of presence: what happens when you stop scripting and start listening
🐔 Yes, chickens and metaphysics—what these unexpected topics taught us about being seen
Your voice is needed—and your story has the power to inspire, connect, and lead. Let this conversation with Harry remind you that it’s never too late to start sharing from a place of truth.
