    On Net Neutrality (2014)

  • I was on Seeking Satisfaction with Jennifer Bourn

    My friend Jennifer Bourn has launched her new podcast, Seeking Satisfaction. Seeking Satisfaction looks at the systems that power successful businesses and fulfilled lives, going behind the scenes with entrepreneurs, freelancers, and professionals to discover how they juggle work and life, manage clients and kids, handle stress, and tackle unexpected challenges. Here’s a little teaser from our interview:

    I Just want to reinforce one point really quick, and that is that I had this network already and I provided value to these people. Right. I wasn’t just tapping them for work. I think that’s probably if you take one thing away from this conversation, it’s the importance of building a good network of relationships with people because that’s what has helped me the most. And that’s, long-term too — I just had my best month income-wise and I didn’t do any outreach for it. It was just people who had a budget for creators.

    It was a delightful chat about the pressures of full-time content creation, monetizing podcasts, anxiety, therapy, and getting help. Be sure to listen and subscribe!
