Been listening for years and have always enjoyed James's style of teaching business and entrepreneurship. Very relaxed and even laconic, but always relating something valuable. This was an exceptional episode, because he was reflecting upon someone he has expressed in the past he had a bit of an antagonistic relationship with. However, he spoke with an almost reverence for the individual showing a great deal of grace. Thank You for all of the incredible teaching. Hotep 𓋹 𓂀 𓋹

Also, you guys had such a great rapport, it made it like having a couple of friends giving the you necessary encouragement to proceed. Hotep.
