Listen Later

Text the show!

I found Dylan Tonkin through his post on LinkedIn where he described what it was like hating his job, quitting, hiking a long trail, and finally starting his own business.

Dylan and I chat about his personal story and what he’s learned from it.  We discuss what it means to be happy, what it means to find happiness, and how important it is to pursue what you want by taking action.
