Customer Reviews
love this podcast
great stories, super inspiring. sam is a great host and i enjoy all these from start to finish.
Rat race defector
This is fantastic! Rat race defectors on the rise!
Great host, interesting concept, eager to see what’s next.
I was pleasantly surprised with Sam’s candor and ability to empathize with his interviewees while still remaining interesting and challenging in his questions.
I’d say this it’s more a symptom of the newness of the podcast, but if love to see a broader range of industries and specializations covered.
With a title like it has, this podcast should be talking to Cirque de Soleil performers, Fiat 500 race drovers, piano tuners, dog psychologists, etc.
I look forward to seeing it grow
