Polished Not Perfect started the way some of the best conversations do—between decades-long friends who trust each other enough to be honest, laugh at themselves, and admit that none of us has it all figured out. At its heart, this podcast is about real life: the careers we build, the relationships we navigate, the families we love, the expectations we juggle, and the occasional chaos that comes with trying to do it all.

While women are very much at the heart of many of our conversations, Polished Not Perfect is a place for anyone who appreciates honest perspectives, practical advice, a good story, and plenty of laughs along the way. Hosts Dr. Susan Taylor and Stacey Moore bring their friendship and experiences to the table—and invite experts, thought leaders, and interesting people to join us, adding their expertise, perspectives, and maybe a few lessons they learned the hard way. Because life isn’t perfectly polished. Neither are we. And that’s exactly what makes the conversation worth having.
