The Magic Hour Podcast is an intentional space for creative entrepreneurs, brand builders, and bold thinkers to share stories that matter. Hosted by Hope Mikal, the founder of Unicorn Marketing Co., each episode dives into honest, empowering chats about marketing, design, mindset, and running a values-led business in a noisy online world.

If you’ve got something to say that challenges the norm, lifts others up, or helps people feel a little less alone, we want to hear from you.

what we cover

Real talk, big ideas, and conversations that make you feel something.

You don’t need to have a book deal, a massive following, or a perfectly packaged brand. You just need to show up with something honest and thoughtful.

Share lessons that others can actually learn from (even the messy ones)

Speak openly about your journey including wins, pivots, burnout, breakthroughs, and the in-between

We’re not here for elevator pitches or polished personas

Have opinions about your industry, identity, or lived experience, and aren’t afraid to say them out loud

Can talk strategy but also get personal (because life and work are always connected)

Bring stories that challenge assumptions, inspire change, or just make you feel a little more seen
