with Morgan Selzer, CCO at Headspace

Author: Philipp Westermeyer, founder and CEO of OMR / Scott Peterson, digital marketing editor, OMR September 1, 2022 Duration: 36:35
Almost exactly one year ago today, Morgan Selzer was appointed CCO at mindfulness platform Headspace. In that time, she has spearheaded content expansion on the platform, which now includes music, guided meditation, sleepcasts and, recently, content focussed exclusively on women's health. And her efforts have begun achieving widespread recognition, as well, as she was named Podcast Executive of the Year by Adweek last month. Morgan joined the OMR Podcast to discuss the brand partnerships and content strategy she has employed at Headspace, her role in making conversations on mental health less taboo and how her experience at CMT—of all places—helped her learn more about the audience at Headspace.

Hamburg serves as the base for The OMR Podcast International, but the conversations here span the globe. Each episode is built on a simple premise: to go inside the minds of the people actually shaping digital business, marketing and technology. Hosts Philipp Westermeyer, founder and CEO of OMR, and digital marketing editor Scott Peterson don't just report the news-they sit down with the founders, executives and innovators creating it. Their discussions are less about abstract theories and more about the tangible strategies, personal career journeys and management decisions driving companies forward. You'll hear the specifics of how these leaders operate, the challenges they're navigating right now and where they see the next opportunities for disruption, particularly across the European tech scene. This podcast delivers those insights directly, cutting through the noise to focus on substantive dialogue. It’s a regular source for anyone looking to understand the practical realities behind the headlines, whether you're building a career, managing a team or running a business. The perspective is grounded, informed and consistently focused on the people at the center of the industry's evolution.
