Authenticate

I’ve been really enjoying the genuine open nature of the discussions Jean has on her podcasts. As someone who’s looking to be more of a self promoter in the future I’m intrigued with how others have done it and I’m absorbing and reflecting every time I listen when I’m out pounding the streets on regular walks.
