Process, Performance and Portrait talk

You know that phrase, "everything happens for a reason?"

Yeah, usually I can't stand it, but, in some cases, it does make a lot of sense!

Take, for example, my podcast with "Your Personal CFO" podcaster, Greg Levine.  We had recorded an interview several weeks ago, and, I felt okay with the results.  We talked about a wide variety of topics related to branded, lifestyle portraits,  but, I kinda felt like some content was left on the table.

3 days after our interview, Greg reached out to let me know that that interview didn't record properly and he wanted to know if I'd be interested in doing it again.  

It was as if the cosmos was conspiring to satisfy my feelings of dissatisfaction after the first interview!

Regardless, we scheduled a second go-around, and this time, I felt much better about the value presented after we finished the interview.

Take a listen and let me know your thoughts below in the comment section.
