Do Good Work is not a label but a way of living. It is the constant and diligent effort to achieve a new level of excellence in one’s own life. It is the hidden inner beauty behind the struggle to achieve excellence. It is not perfect but imperfect. It is the effort, discipline and focus that often goes unnoticed. The goal of this podcast is to highlight that drive. The guests I have on this show emulate this drive in their own special way. You’ll be able to apply new ideas into your own life by learning from them. We will also have 1on1 episodes with me where we’ll dive into my own experiences with entrepreneurship and leadership. Every episode is designed to provide you with ideas that you can apply and grow in excellence in all areas of your life, business and career. Do Good Work, Raul
