This week I had the good fortune of interviewing entrepreneur, filmmaker, and friend Greg Hemmings.
Greg read an excerpt from a commencement speech he gave at the University of New Brunswick.
We talked about why the earliest - seemingly hardest - days of toil and struggle are often the most beautiful.
We talked about his new YouTube project - Rewiring the Muse
Why being in business with your friends is really hard.
And so much more.
Greg’s Overrated-Underrated is can’t miss. You can now find the segment as a stand-alone playlist on the YouTube channel.
You can find the podcast wherever you enjoy podcasts.
Thank you for listening.
