The COVID-19 Check-In (Bonus Episode)

Sometimes it's good to just stop and check-in with each other, especially during this pandemic. Last week Tayo, Matt, and myself discussed Tayo's journey with African Proverb. Being able to walk through the different aspects of his life and entrepreneurial progress, allowed for some great insight and inspiration.  After we concluded our interview I felt it necessary to keep the recording going while we sat and had an in depth discussion about how the COVID-19 Pandemic was affecting us. Being able to check-in with each other led to a beautiful dialogue about God, faith, purpose, rest, clarity, and our objectives during this pandemic.  Here's a glimpse into our lives and transparent conversation as friends and brothers.  The GVEN Collective Podcast is an extension of the GVEN Agency @gvenagency [https://www.instagram.com/thegvenagency/]; hosted by Founder, Brand Strategist, and Creative Director, Kevin Davidson @godgvenofficial [https://www.instagram.com/godgvenofficial/] .     www.gvenagency [www.gvenagency.com]  www.godgven.com [godgven.com] Music Production: Johan Dawn @johandawn [https://www.instagram.com/johandawn/] www.johandawn.com [johandawn.com]
