Incredibly insightful

I’ve listen to this podcast for years. Initially, I listened as a “self help junkie” and always walked away with some new perspective, increased motivation or some another “aha”. More recently, I listen as a coach and I’m in absolute awe of Mike’s ability to tease out and get super granular as to what exactly his quests are saying. I appreciate his questions, his knowledge and the incredible guests he brings on the show. I feel like I’m a better person and coach just for listening!

So good I listened to it again

I’ve often shared episodes of Finding Mastery that I found beneficial with my friends and/or family. But this episode with John Mackey was so great that when I went to the YouTube link to share it with those who don’t listen through Apple Podcasts, I ended up listening to the whole episode again 😁 Really inspiring episode
