In this debut episode of our brand-new segment, Inside the Press Room, Leah pulls back the curtain on what journalists and editors really say once the cameras stop rolling and the pitches hit their inboxes. After weeks in and out of newsrooms, Leah has collected the top five, recent, real-life “overheards” — the comments, complaints, and cringe-worthy moments that reveal where businesses and brands consistently miss the mark.

From sloppy pitching to interviewees who freeze under the spotlight, Leah breaks down each overheard moment with actionable tips to help you step up your PR game. If you want to show up polished, prepared, and press-worthy, this episode is your wake-up call.
