Episode 2
Holy crap . I underestimated this podcast. Shit had me entertained my whole commute going back home. I see this podcast going very far. Thanks! Looking forward for more podcast like these.
Yes.
Missy’s courage and Aaron’s transparency are so, so important. I was floored listening to these two episodes.
Thank.
You.
So.
Much.
As a woman who works in construction, boy, do I so relate to ALL of what Missy said. I’m frustrated by the lack of these kinds of conversations. I’m tired of how lonely it can be to work in an industry where you get asked (when in full PPE, no less) “are you lost?”.
Thank you Aaron for holding space and looking honestly at it. Thank you Missy for your courage!
Thought disrupting....
Following Aaron for a couple years now, it’s astonishing the things he is taking on: old dirt, old thinking, old wisdoms. Though I’m (over) twice his age, I’m somewhat in tune with his demand for transparency. We celebrate a thousand successes but keep our failures packed away like the crazy uncle in the attic. What I like best about his podcasts is highlighting the failures....and the education those failures cultivate.
