About this episode

The episode features the team behind the Palm Beach Chamber discussing their roles and experiences.

In this special episode of Your Palm Beach Guide , we hand the mic to the team behind the magic — it's a Chamber staff takeover featuring Director of Communications and Events Katie Reichelt, Membership Coordinator Brendan Patterson, and operational cornerstone Jane Hesser Lill! From Katie's behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to pull off a packed season of events, to Brendan's first 30 days navigating the fast-paced world of Chamber membership, to Jane's perspective as one of the organization's most enduring pillars — this episode pulls back the curtain on the people, culture, and energy that keep the Palm Beach Chamber running. It's candid, it's fun, and it's a genuine look at the heart of one of Palm Beach's most dynamic organizations.
