Learning and development is the key to innovation – let’s unlock that potential together

My chat with Valentin Farkasch was one of the most interesting I've had.

I'm invested in podcasting and podcasters, and I didn't think I'd find a kindred spirit in a YouTube Creator supporting Smaller YouTube Creators with his work. It goes to show that you don't have to be aligned in your disciplines to have an alignment in your thinking.

In the episode that released today, Valentin and I weaved a conversational web that invariably led us away from the mundane practical reflections, and into more about the potential pivots we intend to make for our businesses in future and how the podcasting/YouTube landscape shifting so fast makes it difficult to find that point of contentment with what we offer the world.

Even if its just your first, listen to today's episode. I think you'll appreciate it as a content creator, agency owner, podcaster, YouTuber or even an entrepreneur trying to make their way in the digital world.
