Episode Synopsis
On this episode of "Into the Unknown" Most people play it safe. Aaron Smalls didn’t. In this episode, you'll hear how one unexpected audition at Nickelodeon flipped Aaron's path from engineering student to sought-after entertainer, keynote speaker, and warm-up host of The Kelly Clarkson Show's live audience at 30 Rock. But this isn’t just a success story—it’s a roadmap for anyone standing at a crossroad, unsure whether to take the leap. From childhood in the Virgin Islands to commanding stages and DJ booths, Aaron opens up about fear, pivoting, and the power of choosing momentum over perfection.What unfolds is a deeply human conversation about trusting your instincts, navigating career reinvention, and building a life around your energy—not your resume. If you’ve ever felt stuck, scattered, or secretly unfulfilled, this episode will shift something in you. It’s not about having the plan—it’s about having the guts to move. This is one of those episodes that could change how you see your next step.Follow Us:Instagram @Pod.IntotheUnknownFacebook - Into the UnknownFollow Aaron Smalls: Instagram: https://instagram.com/theaaronsmalls Instagram: https://instagram.com/curiouslytalentedLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theaaronsmalls/Website: https://aaronsmalls.com/Are you looking to start a podcast?
