Humanly Possible
As humans, we tend to focus on our flaws or look negatively at the things which make us different. Humanly Possible is a podcast that reminds us that being imperfect humans is our greatest competitive advantage. Listen in as host Bryan Kramer engages in rich conversation with other humans who have taken missteps and experienced failures of their own, and recovered by making small “one-degree” shifts that made a massive difference. Listen in and be inspired by others, connected back to your own stories of human imperfection, and reminded that taking small risks can lead to big rewards in your own life.
