Growing a business and producing a live show using the art of magic and theater with Tobias Beckwith
17 April 2021
Growing a business and producing a live show using the art of magic and theater with Tobias Beckwith

This week on Be On Air we had the honor of speaking with Tobias Beckwith. He is an author, producer, director, manager, magician, teacher, and speaker. Together we explored the power of words, identified ways to train for better communication, discussed what skills are valuable when growing a business and producing a live show and most importantly how magic can help everybody reach their dreams. This is a truly inspiring conversation, and we are delighted to share Tobias Beckwith’s insight into the magic of voice and theater. 

After earning his master’s degree and teaching theater arts at the University of Pittsburgh for several years, Tobias moved to NYC to discover what the real world of theater might be like. He landed on the management and production teams of the long-running Fantastiks and Oh! Calcutta!, and spent two years working on the original Broadway and first touring show of Sweeney Todd. Tobias began helping Jeff McBride develop his first full evening show in 1976, and in 1988 became Jeff’s manager and producer for all his shows. He has worked as manager for Jeff McBride and Marco Tempest for many years and has worked as both director and advisor for many other magicians.

Ending Human Trafficking through Entrepreneurship and Educating Youth with Dr. Marlene Carson

"Communities, churches, organizations have to come back together again and become the village to help keep our children safe. We have to."

This week's episode of Be On Air amplifies the voice of leader, entrepreneur, surthrivalist, minister, author and publisher Dr. Marlene Carson. Her righteous devotion to helping the youth and adults affected by a life in trafficking represent how important this issue is for the world. Dr. Carson's stories evoke deep sorrow for the youth exploited by trafficking organizations. She has dedicated herself to inspiring people everywhere to take action against human-trafficking for the good of everyone.

In this interview we discuss how Dr. Carson founded Rahabs Hope of Ohio and became CEO of the Switch anti-trafficking network. She is one of America's foremost authorities on the subject of human trafficking as well as a member of the United States advisory council on human trafficking. Supporting Dr. Marlene Carson and her mission is the first step we can take to help abolish human sex-trafficking.

Dream Interpretation, Shadow Work, and Relationships with This Jungian Life

Growing your podcast is an internal battle just as much as it is an external one. So understanding self, shadow and what our dreaming subconscious does to balance our awake psyche can be key to developing confidence in your brand and amplifying your truths. This episode dives into the journey of three inspired individuals who share their knowledge of Jungian Psychology and wisdom of life through intimate conversation. 

In this episode of Be On Air, I interview two of three hosts from This Jungian Life podcast, Joseph R. Lee and Lisa Marchiano. We explore dream interpretation, shadow work, and some of the frustrating facets of growing a podcast for the first time.

Joseph R. Lee is an LCSW certified Jungian analyst and licensed clinical social worker. He works with adults and teens, and is the president of the Philadelphia association of Jungian analysts which provides a public seminar and trains Jungian analysts. 

Lisa Marchiano is also an LCSW certified Jungian analyst, a writer, and licensed clinical social worker. She has presented on Jungian topics across the U S as well as in Europe, Lisa's book Motherhood Facing and Finding Yourself, explores motherhood as a catalyst for personal growth and will be published in the spring of 2021.
