About this podcast

Deeply human conversations with extraordinary humans. Raw. Relatable. Unexpected. Hosted by Emmy Award–winning storyteller David Begnaud, The Person Who Believed in Me brings together big names from every field around one powerful question: Who believed in you before anyone else did? Through vulnerable, gratitude-filled conversations, guests reflect on the mentors, teachers, family members, and quiet champions who shaped their lives long before success found them. While the names may be familiar, the stories rarely are. This is a podcast about belief, connection, and the people who change our lives without ever asking for credit.
