Pat Flynn on your new career

This is one of my favorite interviews, because it touches on the very foundation of being professional and humane at the same time.

Pat shares the story of how he lost his job in the financial crisis of 2008. Pretty soon it became clear that the crisis hit everyone – so none of his industry contacts was able to offer a new job.

Pat Flynn hat to start from scratch. Pat and Chris talk about the similarities to todays corona crisis -and about the actions, friends and mindsets that helped Pat to shift from architecture to his new career.

Fast forward twelve years and Pat is now not only a highly successful entrepreneur and a podcaster with millions of downloads – he also managed to build a business that feeds his soul and not only his stomach.

Pat was kind enough to open free downloads for his books “Will it fly?” and “Let go”.  You get this wonderful books together with other free resources here:
