  • Great for small business owners

    As someone who owns a small business this podcast is very refreshing.

    In so many other podcasts you only hear people succeeding and when business is actually very up and down it can be frustrating only hearing about the wins.

    This podcast is way more raw and doesn’t shy away from the fails and the mistakes made.

    I love it.

  • People who long for comfort noise

    Absolutely love this show. A perfect balance of genius insight into one of the top leaders in facilitation/workshop product businesses, mixed with random ongoings inside the day to day of AJSmart.

    Not polished, edited, cut or checked.. you won’t care though. That’s the point. Relaxing commuter soundtrack with the odd genius business insight.

  • Long episodes but always worth finishing it to the end

    Jonathan chats away, without a script, but somehow with a plan.

    When you least expect it, he blasts out awesome inspirations.
