podcast Brook McCarthy

In Meaningful Work, Remarkable Life podcast, we explore the intersection of work, identity, meaning-making, and values-based business so that we can craft a remarkable life.

Join veteran business owner Brook McCarthy, as she lifts the lid on her own, and other people’s businesses, to ask all the impertinent questions that you’re too polite to ask. We look at working for love AND money, explore the paradoxes of ambition and mindfulness, look at the work behind the work, and redefine building a business in the 21st century in a way that truly works.
