This week we talked to our good friend, John Potess - a talented developer, sound engineer, and entrepreneur. After getting out of school and working for local agencies, John decided that there must be something better than the stress of the 9-to-5, and decided to go contract while taking the opportunity to travel with his wife. With that, John was able to prioritize his time, working on passion projects, and even now moving to the beautiful country of Portugal. John tells us about some of the projects he's working on, and gives tips on how you too can become a digital nomad. * https://thepodcastcreative.com [https://thepodcastcreative.com/?fbclid=IwAR12DnWlALaM69uNX56ua0gP0vWCPWWoDYXC8k4GBTv5F-saRtMqvOsciVA] * https://www.facebook.com/thepodcastcreative [https://www.facebook.com/thepodcastcreative/] * https://positivetechjobs.com [https://positivetechjobs.com/] * https://gitcontacts.com [https://gitcontacts.com/] * https://johnpotess.com [https://johnpotess.com/] * Book recommendation: Company of 1 [https://ofone.co] * john@thepodcastcreative.com [john@thepodcastcreative.com] --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/techmilldenton/support [https://anchor.fm/techmilldenton/support]
