Real stories. Unfiltered truths. Powerful voices.
Elevating Voices is where community leaders and entrepreneurs step out from behind the titles to share the raw, unspoken realities of building businesses and serving communities. Hosted by Tamise Cross, Executive Director and Co-Founder of P30—a thriving coworking space and entrepreneurial hub on the Far Eastside of Indianapolis—this podcast pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to lead, create, and inspire.
Each episode spotlights P30 community members and leaders who are also entrepreneurs, diving into the victories, setbacks, sacrifices, and quiet truths that rarely get shared on the main stage. Whether you’re an aspiring founder, a seasoned leader, or someone hungry for genuine stories, Elevating Voices offers honest conversations, practical wisdom, and a powerful reminder that you’re not alone in the journey.
From startup struggles to leadership breakthroughs, from personal growth to community impact, guests speak candidly—without the polish—so you can learn, connect, and feel empowered to keep moving forward.
Produced and directed by Erin Parker of creativitE productions.
