Great and insightful podcast
I don’t know who this guy is but man does he have some wisdom to bestow upon his listeners! Also did you know he has all his vids on YouTube too?! I like what I hear and I can’t wait to hear more.
Thank you Phil Svitek for such a show as this one.
Food for thought
Nice ideas, lacks follow through
Fantastic Insights
How does he keep coming up with new lessons each and every week??? I don’t know but the fact that he does is amazing because I learn so much from him. Thank you for all that you do. Highly recommend this series to anyone. Also, what’s great to see is Phil’s personal journey through all of this. He’s not just teaching me, he’s teaching himself and it shows. Keep it up.
