We Go Together: A Relai Podcast The Relai Team

It's been ten more episodes, which means goodbye for now.

I've grown as I enjoyed myself, which is all I think I could hope for. This season we spent the bulk of our time trying to learn from others while we continued to build and prepare. It seems things are moving in our direction. Distractions and challenges are sure to reinvent themselves, but the general atmosphere around Relai continues to be "tomorrow is the day". 

This week is a thank you and a revisiting of the guests we've spoken with, the ideas they've shared, and the value they've created for me and for Relai. 

I hope you've enjoyed this season. We'll be back soon.

Alan's First Book, Organizational Velocity: Turbocharge Your Business to Stay Ahead of the Curve

In the grand scheme of things, Relai is still a baby. In man hours, phone calls, and sweat--it's ancient. We've put in a lot of hours to ensure we produce a product that lives up to the expectations we've set for it and offers a real solution. This week, hear Dillon reminisce a bit. After nearly two seasons of WGT and many developments in the business, Dillon takes a moment to reflect on what it's all been like, where Relai is today, and how he's come to feel about the notion of being a young founder. 

Dillon here. I figured no one ever writes these as anything other than an omniscient narrator, so I'll try to just be myself. When I was in my "I Know Everything" phase (which unfortunately only ended recently), I often felt misunderstood when I shared my ideas with others. The confusion was always on account of my limited perspective-- never my voice. 

This episode, when you hear from Ganna Tymko, you'll hear a different experience. Ganna's lived in seven countries, worked in four, and established herself as a consulting professional. Still, she found roadblocks in her path to success that were built on her accent. For herself and others like her who desire to be understood, she's built Sayso-- a speech augmentation tool designed to bring clarity to conversations.

Karissa Wheeler is busy. After graduating from Sewanee, she took on New York City as an Actress. When the pandemic shuttered every Broadway production, she returned home to Nashville and wrote a whole book.

This week, you'll hear Karissa talk about how faith motivates her, the importance of a grateful heart, and daring to dream.
