About The Show

Business success and insights? What's this about?
After our first 100 guests, we can safely say that the common thread between all our successful and wonderful new friends is that they all chose the harder path, the one where being themselves was the only option that fit. Not anyone can “be themselves” very easily, and even fewer can turn that into a successful business asset. That’s why we introduce you to models of that success every episode.
Shine a Light
Both Chris and Kerry have extensive connections to the digital business and online marketing space. Most of our friends are marketers and plenty of them have shows and podcasts of their own. The Backpack Show isn’t about marketing and our marketing friends.
Our goal is to shine a light on people who don’t always get the attention they deserve, or the recognition for their business smarts and experience. This is an inclusive show that actively seeks out BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and less served members of our society doing business their way.
