Episode 96 - How to Manage Multiple Interests Successfully with Joel Bouchard
Are you wondering whether it will ever be possible to combine not just two, not just three but many of your multiple interests? Then this Episode is for you!
Joel Burchard, this week's fast-brained guest, is a doctoral student in psychology, a multi-instrumentalist record producer, author, painter, Army veteran, business leader, and host of the philosophy podcast "From Nowhere to Nothing."
