Adam’s approach to gambling is met with a combination of genuine and sincere space for others. He can sit with a difficult conversation, disagree, inquire, and find space to learn. It’s clear his passion drives him to be a loud resource in a space that is too often met with silence. Highly recommend.
This pod is one of the best I’ve ever listened to. The design with Adams personal shares at the beginning is calming, funny, interesting, relatable. I’ve often thought the way he tells his story is like listening to an audiobook. Thank you for showing up in a meaningful way. Sending my love, respect and support.
I heard Adam on the ODAAT Podcast and started listening to his pod today. I’ve already listened to 4 episodes and am loving it! Thank you, Adam!
