Bringing it back to a classic episode with Andrew bromfield the tech guru! The best part about what Andrew always says is that you don't need as much technology experience as you may think. Even being in tech myself and early in my career I would even go as far to say you can use other experiences to make you even more valuable than you know. This is a solid opportunity to learn more about technology and it's even more relevant considering the worldwide pandemic that is impacting everyone on the planet.

Joe Hollier Co-Founder of the Light Phone built a phone that can only make phone calls, play music, play podcasts, has a calculator and can make phone calls. Sounds crazy right? Well personally I don't think so. If we look at our cellphones today their original intend use is now non existent and the sole focus is to grab as much attention from the user as possible. To the point where we now have people spending 8+ hours on their phone a day on average!!! I think what Joe and the rest of his team is doing is extremely groundbreaking. Lots of gems in this episode. You can stay connected with Joe and his company the Light Phone on these platforms.
