Howdy Do That
by John Pham
Sharing stories of people doing work they love and how they got there. Getting to work on what you love seems so rare these days. Many people work to live rather than getting to live to work. My goal with this podcast is to share stories of people who have figured out what they love, how they got there, and what we can learn from them. On the journey of figuring out what you love, you'll likely have to figure out things like how to pay your bills, travel, save, and invest. So I'll be sprinkling in episodes on those topics as well!
