WOW! We could not have asked for a better 400th Podcast Episode Guest!
And, Jason Fried delivered. He was super candid about a great many topics that I think you will really enjoy listening about and learning from.
In this interview, Jason discusses:
Like many of you, I have been reading Jason's books and his vulnerable online posts for many years.

Well, as Myles explains in this interview, it was stressful and there was lots of drama.

Ashley describes what happened and how taking a year off from her business helped her decide the answer to this question:
"Do I want to be the leader that pilots the company to forward growth?"
