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!

People who leave good reviews are sexy
Help get my podcast in front of more people.
As you know, word-of-mouth makes small business go ’round, so taking two quick minutes to leave me a review on Apple podcasts or Spotify helps immeasurably!
It means that these platforms will recommend the podcast to new listeners, and help me with my mission of getting more business into the hands of good people – micro and small business owners!
Thank you in advance for being a good egg.
