THE VIRTUAL

CAMPFIRE

Hosted by leadership coach and author Tony Martignetti, The Virtual Campfire has featured over 300 conversations with founders, creators, and change-makers who share the moments that ignited their purpose.

Each episode sparks reflection and connection—reminding us that every leader’s path is lit by the moments that changed them.

Since the dawn of time, people have gathered around fires to share wisdom, fears, and dreams. The Virtual Campfire carries that tradition forward—creating a safe space for honest conversation about leadership, growth, and the defining “flashpoints” that shape who we become.

 

Each week, Tony sits down with inspiring guests from every walk of life—founders, creators, executives, and change-makers—to explore the moments that ignited their purpose. Together, they uncover what it means to lead and live with intention.

“I just recently discovered this podcast and I love it. Tony is authentic and easy to listen to, and each episode has inspiring guests with many takeaways. I’m currently in a transitional period of my career where I’m trying to decide on next steps, and really working on my overall well-being.

This podcast is exactly what I needed. Thank you, Tony!”

 “Tony’s podcast is a truly thought-provoking listen.

Always inspiring — the perfect dose of medicine to keep us in our power so we can shine our brightest light in the world.”

“Tony Martignetti has done something remarkable with The Virtual Campfire, combining warmth, humor, and deeply human insights with powerful messages.

Through the stories and life experiences of a diverse group of thought leaders, you’ll learn lessons on how to lead, live, and thrive in your work and life. Highly recommended!”
