My Kind of People

Derek Sivers is one of my all time favourite thinkers. He’s a writer, author, a visionary entrepreneur, and a sought-after speaker who has helped countless people turn their ideas into action. He's the mastermind behind the wildly successful online platform CD Baby, which has revolutionized the music industry and helped independent artists reach new heights. And now, he's here to share his wisdom with us and hopefully continue to inspire us to chase our dreams, no matter how big or small.

In this episode, we discuss values, reflection, conventionality and success.
