Finally deciding to listen to my audience and those who’ve messaged Pod2 thinking we’re a podcast company (great marketing, I know!), here’s episode 1 of the Achieve and Enjoy podcast from Pod2. In Episode 1, my Co-Founder, Josh Groves, will interview me, Matt Harriman. We dive into what the heck Pod2 does, why we call ourselves “a multi-niche calm company,” what effective communication looks like, and the goals we have for this podcast.
If you believe work shouldn’t suck, please stick around for the ensuing episodes. There are some great guests — most of which have no online presence — who will change how you think about work, life, money, and happiness.
