Looking Back on Series One of the Side Quest

Welcome to another episode of The Side Quest, I am Lex Hearth, and this week I’m going solo. Allow me to take this time to look back on the first series of The Side Quest. Over the past few months, the podcast has been filled with conversations, stories, perspectives, and lessons from an incredible lineup of guests. I could honestly say that the biggest takeaways come from transparent and generous conversations. We’ve tackled the importance of consistency, community, taking risks, evolving with change, and trusting your own direction. It’s been inspiring to hear the journeys behind the work, and even more rewarding to share those moments with everyone who tuned in throughout the first series. See in you series two! Until then, happy questing.

Please enjoy!
