Listen "The Importance of Betting on Yourself (and your gut)"
Episode Synopsis
Are you a delusional optimist? Well I'm reformed and so is my guest Justin Crawford. You can miss us with the busy schedules, 2 hours of sleep, and anxiety-filled burn out culture. Anyhoo...Justin and I get into some real talk about personal growth, self-discovery, and the wild ride of entrepreneurship. Justin is in a new phase in life! We chat about the importance of living authentically, trusting your gut, and making meaningful connections (because let’s be real, surface-level friendships just don’t cut it anymore).Listen til the end because Justin drops some wisdom on the need for joy and actual face-to-face interactions—yes, those still exist — and some solid advice for anyone thinking about diving into the entrepreneurial world.Follow Justin:Instagram: @heyjustincrawfordJust Media Agency: https://just-media.co/And don’t forget to keep up with all things Outside of Work on:Instagram: @outsideofworkofficialTikTok: @outsideofworkofficialWatch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ITeTu6fc0KsThis was recorded virtually thanks to Riverside.
