Episode 0705 Vincent Rodriguez Coffee and Chocolate Maker

Kansas is full of very interesting people and my guest today is probably at the top of the list. I'm talking with Vincent Rodiguez, a coffee roaster, chocolate maker, and bicycle manufacture based in Lenexa. I'm taking you to coffee and chocolate school with Vincent. One of the things I took away from my conversation with Vincent is that when we are curious and want to learn about something, it can take us to interesting places. We shouldn't worry about being the best at something – we should only worry about whether or not we are learning something. Vincent's life philosophy is an inspiration to me, and I hope you feel the same.
