THE REAL PERSONAL BRANDING PODCAST

Three Birthday Reflections, My Sister Sarah Vanags Interviews Me

My sister Sarah, ever since we were little, has encouraged me in her own way to celebrate myself on my birthday. A few years ago she started asking everyone 3 questions on their birthday and this year I asked if she would ask them to me on my podcast.

We recorded this less than 24 hours before my birthday so it counts. Thanks to my editor Fynn Gentle (https://fynngentle.com/) for turning this around quickly to have out on time for my birthday today. 

In this episode you will hear a much more personal, less business episode about my life, my thoughts, Sarah and I and our childhood.

Thanks for starting the next 365 days around the sun with me.
