Thanks for tuning in!  I'm excited to announce that I got my old laptop working again (looks like it fixed itself actually) but I now have access to better audio recording/editing software which hopefully means better quality overall. Still working out the kinks so if it sounds odd, my bad.  In this episode I address some things I've been going through personally. I read through some quotes that I've been pondering on and give my thoughts and insight on them.  See links below for further insight from my sources.  Topics include vulnerability, the "trance of unworthiness," self love, doubt, fear, growth, and hope.  I hope, especially if you're going through similar things, that you find some insight and, if needed, find assistance or help.  Would love to know your thoughts.

In this episode talk about the idea of analysis paralysis when it comes to beer, decision-making, and sales. Sometimes it’s not a bad idea to take a step back in order to move your business forward. Also, this is going to be a little bit different than my other recordings. This episode in the next couple are geared more toward those that actually work in the industry whether that be in a liquor store or a bar/restaurant. Hopefully, where ever you are in the beer world, you will get something out of this. If you do, I’d love to hear what you think.
