The Michael Hageman Show (TMHS) is where curiosity has a mic. Hosted by Michael Hageman, a strategist and creative who works alongside people who think differently, the show explores ideas, experiences, and personal stories from guests whose lives don’t fit into one category. Each episode is built around curiosity and conversation. Some feature guests who live at fascinating intersections of work and life.

In this episode, I get into the actual decision behind it: not ego, not branding… just honesty. Why clever names felt like hiding, why personal branding gets exhausting, and why putting my real name on something ...
