Super easy to listen to

Just found this podcast and it is a great listen. Super good info in a really digestible format.

Useful and Actionable

I listened to John speak at Innergize- a beauty & wellness conference. I manage a salon, not a medspa, and the knowledge and advice he shares is applicable in our industry as well. There are so many podcasts and conference speakers that are the traditional smoke and mirrors - too vague and leave you with unanswered questions, lost on what steps you need to take to get you where you want to go. John interviews guests and asks great analytical questions with intention. His willingness to share very specific “how to’s” sets him apart. Many speakers want to share what you “should” do. John shares the “HOW”. Currently binging all the shows; they are that good!
