How can you put yourself out there when you don’t know if you’re good enough? When is it too late to chase your dreams? How do you keep going when you’re knocked down? These are questions musician Christopher O’Donnell wrestled with for years.
On this episode of the ROI Online Podcast, Christopher shares the story of how he combined his love of storytelling and his passion for music to create songs that have a million views on YouTube.
Christopher is the Chief Product Officer at HubSpot, a role that helped him dig into the core of effective communication and leadership. Ultimately, his storytelling expertise is what has helped him succeed in this position. As Steve Jobs once said, “The most powerful person in the room will always be the best storyteller."
Christopher has always had a solid understanding of story, and this has helped him communicate as a leader and understand his customers’ buyer personas on a deeper level. This talent has also allowed him to create some epic songs.

Sharing those songs with the world, however, was a struggle. Christopher had connections to influential players in the music industry, but something always kept him from reaching out. He struggled to overcome self-doubt, something many of us entrepreneurs can relate to.
Christopher finally made the call. He connected with a musician who helped him gain confidence in his work and turn his lyrics into works of art. Today, his songs have over a million listens on YouTube. His band, The Providers, creates catchy songs that shed light on the feelings and problems many of us wrestle with in life: from damaged relationships to racism.
