Paul Jarvis is a designer, developer, author, podcaster, and much more. I’ve been following his work for years online.
He just wrote a book that challenges us to think about success, what we want, and how we build careers, projects, and companies in pursuit of those ideals.
Paul and I dig into things like money, partnerships, and how to know when to quit. A super fun conversation. What I love about Paul is his authenticity when it comes to his work. He knows who he is and what he wants, and makes sure that his business supports both of those things.
