Beware The Wild Animals

TJ's Solo Adventures S2E10

Welcome to a rare solo episode of Beware The Wild Animals. There’s a reason my solo episodes are rare. When I am sans guest, I have to over plan what I’m going to say. I also think I’m funnier than I really am. Put these things together, and you get a short and sometimes cringeworthy experience to behold. Most podcasters would never release an episode that fits this description. But, I’m not most people. I don’t fit in a box and despite what some people may think, I don’t always play by the rules. That's the point of this podcast, isn't it? So, if you’re even a little curious and have nothing else to do for the next thirteen minutes, press play and have a good laugh at my expense. Oh, and you just might come away with a new outlook on life. To follow me, T.J.

Maria Joyner:Making Quantum Leaps S2E8

Maria Joyner is a 4X founder and Marketing Technologist. In 2015, she traveled to Costa Rica to spend 3 months at a self-sufficient, off-the-grid, permaculture farm.

She currently serves in two roles professionally: a marketing technology consultant for founder-led companies generating $3M-$30M in annual revenue; and she is the founder of the Quantum Leap Women's Experience which helps women successfully make big life changes. She's married with a four-year-old son. And today she is going to share her thoughts on facing fear, exercising your fear and failure muscle, living off the grid, and building an authentic life.
