A Must Listen To

Wow!! Great, Great Podcast. The gift of the conversation was that it was seamless. O spoke to his time (our time-Baby Boomer) and the back and forth between lavala and dayo (the today their time-millenial) was so on point. The dialogue was meaningful, relateable and uplifting. It was a joy to listen to and the GEMS dropped were priceless (meaning listen again so that you retain them-write them down : ). Many of us today are trying to embrace our passions and make a living out of doing them. But are afraid or whatever else (excuse). Both sides brought truth and light to struggle and even spoke about monetization. O really gets the relevant questions in!!! Check the podcast out. You won't be disaapointed.
