#40 - Colin Walters - The Seeds of Success Podcast, Creating Content, & Delivering Value.

Today’s episode is a new for me! First things first, make sure you check out Colin Walters and the Seeds of Success podcast! Recently, I drove up to Tacoma, Washington to record an in-person episode. I enjoyed the conversation so much that I also wanted to share it on my platform to help Colin’s podcast grow.
