Mark Zarate on Flashback to April 2020 and Moving Forward
Mark has made many appearances on the show and in this one we actually did some post production magic.In 2020, some might remember I was doing daily episode of “Real Talk by The Lifestyle Chase”.Every day of the week, I uploaded a 12 minute short episode that would give people guidance or entertainment or insight for their day. This was inspired by podcasts I’d listen to that helped me reframe situations and helped inspire me.When it came time to record for April 4, I was out of energy. Tapped out. I felt defeated because gyms had been closed and I didn’t know what was in store for me in the time to come. That’s where Mark stepped in. Tune in to not only hear our conversation about Mark’s travelling and visiting and life experiences but to also get a snapshot of life in 2020.I highly recommend you follow Mark at all of these places:* Website* Instagram* Twitter* Facebook* YouTubeTo stay connected with me, please subscribe to The Lifestyle Chase on YouTube:The Lifestyle Chase YouTubeOr head to my websiteWebsiteOr follow me on IG@christianliddle@thelifestylechase Get full access to Insight by Chris Liddle at chrisliddle.substack.com/subscribe
