In this episode, Molly Pittman answers a question that came in from one of our listeners: What does she ‘consume’ in her personal life to keep her inspired and rejuvenated? Molly shares her most favorite media channels (that have nothing to do with Digital Marketing)! But they each have ’a special magic’ that has helped them grow organically.
Our goal in this episode is to encourage you to spend your free time wisely. What are you doing in your life for yourself? Something outside of business and outside of marketing?
You will learn:
- What do these YouTube Channels have in common (a key to their success)?
- Why marketers and entrepreneurs need to have hobbies and interests outside of business.
And more!
