The Hot Mic @ Arch DevOps

On today's episode, I got the chance to talk with Trish Springsteen, whose goal in life and business is to help introverts realize the incredible potential they have with public speaking. It's not often you get the chance to talk with someone who has a handle on how exactly to take the nervous energy that public speakers have, and turn it into the energy to drive an amazing talk, but today she shared some tips. While I'm not an introvert myself, I still learned a ton, and if you're interested in getting into public speaking yourself, you'll learn some things too.

Even though this is the first time you've met Mark Kumar on this podcast, this is the second time we've spoken. I'm not going to spoil it, but the first chat we had went so well and I learned so much, that when I told my business partner about it he said, "See if you can get him on and talk about lead generation!" 

While I don't want to get into the details of the next episode where we talk for the first time, I do want to introduce you to Mark as the Lifestyle Entrepreneur, who helps people figure out how to build business around their passion, and also helps fellow business owners get unstuck. If you're struggling to figure out how to find qualified leads in this new era, this episode is custom made just for you.

Noah was raised on a farm in rural Vermont with his 4 brothers and 2 sisters. A graduate of Boston College and Brooklyn Law School, Noah is a lawyer by trade but in 2014 he co-founded Ripple with one of his close friends Derek Hedges.
