This year has been a wonderful year for a bit of optimism. It's been a sheer joy for me to sit down and record this podcast. And I know full well that it wouldn't be as great as it is if it wasn't for you, the listener. So I want to give you a big, heartfelt thank you for making a bit of optimism what it is. Whether you listen to one episode or every episode, that you have been out there sharing the ideas, embracing the ideas, if you've sent a YouTube link to a friend or shared a clip on social, you've played a part in helping spread the message of optimism.
Thank you. And like so many of you, we at A Bit of Optimism are also going to take a break for the holidays. We will be back in the new year with new episodes starting January 27th. with new and wonderful guests that you won't want to miss. Until then, if you'd like something to listen to, whether you're staying at home or traveling, there's a few of my favorite episodes that I encourage you to go back and listen to if you missed them the first time, or maybe even listen to them again if you did hear them.
One of my absolute favorite ones is with my dear friend and CEO of Barry Waymiller, Bob Chapman. We traveled to one of the factories in Phillips, Wisconsin, where I got to talk to Bob and meet some of his people. Visiting his factory is a lesson to all of us about what work could be like, in fact, what work should be like. If you are looking for a little creative inspiration, check out my conversation with Grammy Award winner Jacob Collier. He has lots of fun ideas and to see his mind buzz is nothing short of creatively inspiring.
