What exactly happens when we quit our job and take our passion full time?
If you have ever thought about quitting your job or if it’s something you should do right now then you will love this episode.
In this interview, I talk to Melissa Morris from MelissaVMorris.com who is a productivity and time management expert.
My favourite quote from this episode is when Melissa describes how she “helps free hamsters from wheels”
We cover podcasts, books and resources that have helped Melissa to follow her passion and live the lifestyle she wants to live.
At the end of the day that is what I created this podcast for, to help you build a lifestyle that supports how you want to live. Be that chilling on a beach sipping an ice cold beer or helping millions of people with a product or service.
My audio is also a bit muffled in this episode, not sure why.
