What I need help with: Hi there! Trying to update the Michaela Guzy page since the information is inaccurate and/or outdated in spots. There is a conflict of interest as well as confusion in the editing process, so we would like to request help primarily with neutral tone and of course accuracy for Wiki readers that decide to search for Michaela Guzy online! Below we have included the biography edited by a third-party. Should there be any questions or clarity needed, please feel free to reach out!

What I think should be changed (include citations):

Michaela Guzy is a documentary filmmaker^[1], travel journalist^[2], American media executive, entrepreneur, producer and on-air show host^[3]^[4]. She is the founder of the editorial content house, OhThePeopleYouMeet^[5] focusing on people, places and purposes which she founded in 2012 after departing her corporate job as the VP/Global Travel and Strategic Development for American Express Publishing. OTPYM's production arm currently produces three shows, an exclusive Medical Tourism series and TV segments across the USA and Canada.

Her show has appeared on American Airlines in-flight, KTLA ^[10] and Thrive Global. Seasons 1 and 2 are currently in-flight on Qatar Airways^[11], KTLA+^[12] and Modern Luxury Media's streaming service^[13], M/LUX, on Vizio, Roku, Fire and Apple TV in the USA.

In response to the COVID-19 Pandemic she launched a trending visual podcast called InspirationStation^[14] to showcase “real people and real stories” reaching "next generation audiences globally".

There are currently over 125 episodes^[15].

Why it should be changed: Changes address writing in a neutral tone and address Michaela Guzy's notability in the media and travel industry so the notability biography tag can be removed. Changes should correct Michaela's birthplace as St. Louis, Missouri, USA. Changes should also correct Guzy being known for primarily being a documentary filmmaker, a travel journalist and an on-air show host.
