Feed Drop – Career Yak Podcast

Listen to the Work From Home Forever Podcast

Check out the Career Yak podcast with Chris Goodwillie

Hi everyone, this is your host, Don, from the ⁠Work From Home Forever⁠ podcast. We are doing a Feed Drop and sharing an episode from our friends at the ⁠Career Yak⁠ podcast hosted by Chris Goodwillie.

Feed Drops are important for a few reasons:

1. Being an indy podcaster is HARD work, people! So if I can share a Career Yak episode with all of you, and you find it interesting, go subscribe and listen to Career Yak’s other episodes.
2. The second reason is I am traveling for work the next few weeks, and for our loyal listeners, I want to make sure you guys get fresh new content.

On this episode of the Career Yak podcast, ⁠Chris has two guests⁠ who made the transition from working for others to starting their own wealth management company. Chris and his guests talk about how their strong faith and beliefs guide their decisions and the paths they choose and paths they avoid throughout their journey.

And join us for new episodes of the Work From Home Forever podcast at the end of the month. We’ve got a conversation with Catherine who is a military spouse which is a new perspective on the show and we also have Brian who founded his CPA firm after a layoff and not wanting to do the corporate grind.

In the meantime, we hope you enjoy this feed drop from the Career Yak podcast.

Thanks for listening to our show!
