Such great stories from super interesting people. Entrepreneurship presents unique challenges, and the interviews here have helped me a lot through the whole process. Can’t recommend this one enough, even if you’ve never even heard of Calgary.

Apple Podcasts5masrapidoCanada2 years ago - Love this podcast
I love learning about Calgarians that I wouldn’t know so much about otherwise. Jeff’s way with people helps them open up and share things that help me fall in love with them and this city.
Side note, the Mark Little episode saved me $244 this year on my energy when I checked out his new venture, Jotson. Not a bad day:)
