j_a_sonGreat Content in 30 MinsAs we all know, it’s difficult to find the the balance between wanting great content and not having too much free time to listen. I was looking for some quick leadership and motivation a few months ago- tried a dozen different people and then I came across Adam. I really appreciate his ability to not only find amazing guests, but pack a great interview with dense information into a 30 minute segment. It’s easy to fit into my day, and some of these names are very noticeable so it stays on my mind until I tune in! Can’t wait for what’s to come in 2022!
