The Main Thing Podcast

Welcome back to the Main Thing Podcast! I’m your host, Skip Lineberg. Our special guest is a dear friend and a bold dream-chaser. Today, you will get a firsthand dose of courage, faith and humor from Steffanie Peterson.

A West Virginia native, Steffanie Peterson is a single mother, who took on the biggest challenge of her life, when she relocated her Broadway-dreaming daughter to the bright lights of New York City. By day, Steffanie manages a busy plastic surgery center in Manhattan on 5th Ave. By night, she manages the career of her daughter, the talented vocalist Hannah Jane. In her spare time, Steffanie focuses on her writing. This published author is currently working on her second book, titled “The Hot Mess Express: Flying Solo.”

Get ready! Over the next 9 minutes, you will discover why Steffanie Peterson is one of the wisest people I know.
