The Merilyn Show
The Merilyn Show is what happens when a reformed wallflower and ex-good girl stops obeying the niching rules and lets her late-diagnosed ADHD brain go full tall poppy.
That’s me! Merilyn (not to be confused with a certain blonde named Marilyn).
Expect eclectic, unfiltered banter and ah-ha moments on everything from entrepreneurship, personal brand and being a tall poppy to culture, menopause, spirituality, neurodiversity, parenting - and the occasional road kill.
Mostly, we hunt for the wow-flavoured stuff in a world that was always mad (social media just gave us front-row seats).
I’m joined by co-hosts and guests I find fascinating.
And in further disregard for industry norms, I’ve ditched the paywalls and Zoom logins and started teaching my courses here for free.
Merilyn Wilson Beretta is the founder of Tall Poppy Society, Lead Your World, What’s Your Wow and WowArchetypes. The podcast was previously The Tall Poppy Society podcast — and before that, Lead Your Day.
