Season 2, Episode 1 - Engen Books

When Matthew LeDrew decided to study journalism, he thought he’d be the next Peter Parker, Clark Kent, or Lois Lane. Instead, he followed in the footsteps of writers Stan Lee and Jerry Siegel. Matthew is the founder of Engen Books, a book publishing company based in Newfoundland and Labrador, and he’s an author himself. In this episode, he and host Ian MacDonald talk about transferable skills, how mentorship puts things into perspective, and balancing passion with financial responsibility. Matthew says publishing isn’t a get-rich-quick venture. It’s a labour of love. Tune in to find out how he navigated the growing pains and created a career that ignites his passion every day.
