Show Notes
Drew Korf (that's me!) is the founder of The Garden Podcast and Storyline Media Co. In today's episode, I celebrate 40 episodes and turning 27. We tried a new format today, and the episode is 90 minutes of bite-sized lessons, quotes, books, insights, and frameworks that I gathered over the last year.
Key Insights and Highlights: - Rebranding to The Garden - What's your Misogi? - Don't chase butterflies - Focus for the show this year - The year of the re-read - Perfection & procrastination - Growth without suffering - Work is the most dangerous addiction? - Talking to past & future Drew- Moving to Austin
These episodes feel like a fun digital journal entry, and they're a ton of fun to share with you. I hope you enjoy it and find a takeaway or two that feel helpful in your life.
Thanks for listening. Be Where Your Feet Are, - DK
