At the Podium with Patrick Huey
At the Podium — where real stories meet quiet courage.
Join host Patrick Huey in intimate, soul-centered conversations with writers, creators, visionaries, and healers. Each episode peels back the layers of memory, transformation, identity, and human longing — the stories we think we’ve left behind and the truths waiting to bring us home. Whether we’re talking second chances, reinvention, spiritual awakening, healing, or deep creative work, At the Podium is a space to sit firmly in honesty, vulnerability, and hope.
If you’re seeking a podcast that embraces life’s messiness, celebrates emotional truth, and holds space for redemption and growth — welcome. This is more than a show. It’s a living room of possibility, a place to reflect, to heal, and to come home to yourself.
🕯️ Expect thoughtful interviews, personal stories, and questions that linger long after the episode ends.

Derrick Young Jr.: Don’t Let the Chaos and Noise of Today Steal Your Joy.
Derrick Young Jr. is a modern-day wellness warrior, advocate and pioneer committed to living a life of unrestrained excellence and impact. He emodies the principles of courage, citizenship and action that Theodore Roosevelt speaks about in his "Man in the Arena" statement. As the Founder and Executive Director of Leadership Brainery, Derrick and his team are creating pathways to Master’s and Doctoral programs for underrepresented communities – making what once seemed impossible, possible for thousands of college graduates. And with his newest venture, Forever Young Spa — an urban luxury wellness destination in Boston — he’s redefining whom the wellness industry speaks to and whom it serves.
In our conversation today we discuss how his own health struggles, his faith in God and his optimism fuel Derek’s ongoing fight for a better tomorrow. And how he has not allowed the chaos and noise of the present moment, to steal his joy.
