Today’s podcast guest is with author and career strategist Ray Slater Berry, whose intuition had him start a creative writing business geared towards dyslexic people after being let go from a job because of pay cuts.
In this podcast interview, Ray and I talk about the time he trusted his intuition to move to Barcelona without having a job or knowing a soul, writing his book, and how surrounding himself with the right people not only had him flourish in the content creation area, but it was also the reason why he was successful in finding clients for his new business.
