LINKS FROM THE EPISODE:
ABOUT OUR GUEST:
After a decade in consulting, Max was totally burnt out. The long hours, back-to-back-to-back meetings, and high stress took a heavy toll. He started experiencing anxiety attacks and felt like a shell of his former self. To help untangle his brain, Max and his wife took a month-long surf and yoga trip to Costa Rica. It was an incredible experience, providing the space to slow down and focus on himself in a way he hadn’t in a long time. As soon as he returned, Max was inspired to create this type of experience for other high-achieving professionals. Max knows what it’s like to work in high-pressure environments and the impact that intentional time away can have on calming the nervous system. Through mindfulness retreats and mindfulness offsites, Max helps high-achieving professionals connect with themselves and others in profound and meaningful ways.

ABOUT OUR GUEST:
Karlyn Ankrom is the Founder and lead strategist of Oh Snap! Social, as well as the creator of the Fan Firestarter Framework, a new approach to social media marketing tailored to businesses “tempted to fake their death and flee to Tahiti at the mere thought of content creation.” She developed her user-friendly strategy after a decade of working with various brick-and-mortar businesses that were social-media-allergic - not because they didn’t want to make content, but because they were intimidated by it. Karlyn’s system addresses this fear, helping newbies get on the fast track to “unsticking their social media” in just one hour per week.
