Episode 140

We are almost at the end of 2020. Carter and Mo reflect on this past year, lessons learnt and opportunities found. The impact of social media has never been clearer. It skews the way we think about things and causes people to be firm in their opinion of something, when actually there is no clear answer. The vaccine is a good example of that. Carter and Mo discuss how they are deciding whether to take it or not. Although there have been challenges and obstacles this year, there have also been benefits and opportunity. Carter talks about his new business ventures and why they wouldn’t have happened without this tumultuous year.•Is it a good idea to be glad 2020 is over?
