Meaningful Work, Remarkable Life
with Brook McCarthy
The podcast for those who work for love and money
Join me as I lift the lid on my own, and other people’s businesses.
We explore the intersection of work, identity, meaning-making, and values-based business so that we can craft a remarkable life.
This is the podcast where I ask all the impertinent questions that you’re too polite to ask, about profit, people, planet, doing good, running experiment, making smart decisions, and so much more.
We explore the paradoxes of ambition and gratitude, show the work behind the work, and redefine building a business in the 21st century, in a way that actually works for you.
So grab a cuppa, pick an episode, and happy listening!

In this episode, we rethink how to earn consistent 10K+ months in your business, not by working harder or earning more qualifications, but by shifting how you approach sales, marketing, and profitability.
