The Lively Show TLS #18 with Noah Kagan: Intentions, Values, and Meaning
Today I’ve got a special guest on The Lively Show that you may not be familiar with, Noah Kagan.
He’s a taco loving, introspective, completely open, Austin-based entrepreneur who is well known for founding AppSumo.com and his early involvement in Facebook (he was employee #30).
He also shares great business insights and life hacks on his blog, OkDork.com.
In this week’s show, we’re having a “lively” conversation (I don’t often throw that term around, but it’s true) about intentions, meaning, and values.
Noah candidly talks about his experiences, strengths, and struggles both personally and professionally.
And though most Lively Show interviews are pretty straightforward, this episode is much more of a dialogue between us both that can hopefully provide value and insight for you in your own life.
This episode is perfect for those who are looking to discover their values, craft intentions, and explore the opportunities that come from setbacks.
{ Attention: this episode contains some swearing. }
