Coming soon
Every leader, entrepreneur, and podcaster has a story they almost didn't tell. The one they edited out of the bio. The season they skipped over in the interview. The thing that actually made them who they are. That's the conversation we're here for.
Hosted by Tamar Routly & Mark Wright

Every episode
01
What happened?
02
What did it cost you?
03
When did you stop hiding it?
No prep. No topic list. No polished talking points. We don't edit: what gets said is what goes out, including the stumbles, the laughs, and the long pauses before the good stuff. Because real conversations sound different from produced ones, and you can hear the difference.
Your hosts
Origin Story Off Script is hosted by Tamar Routly, founder of Podcast Impact Studio, and Mark Wright, a four-time Emmy Award-winning broadcaster with nearly 40 years of telling other people's stories. Between them they've learned the same lesson from opposite directions: Tamar spent 22 years editing herself to survive. Mark spent 35 years on camera learning to sound like someone else. Both of them had to find their way back.

Real podcasters, real shows, worked through on air. You watch the process, not just hear about it.
