Unexpected Advice
This lively podcast allows us to learn interesting insights from interesting people - but not the in the way you would expect. Every single guest, whether highly accomplished or just wildly interesting, shares a life lesson, a piece of advice, or a passion they've gotten really good at that the rest of the world needs to know about. It’s a fun way for you to learn something interesting about your fellow humans.
