Ep. 112: Rod Chong | How to Stay Authentic to Yourself

Rod Chong is a Creative Director at Race Service and is the host of the Radical Strategies, a podcast that I so happen to produce! He joins this week to share his story along with some incredible lessons he's learned throughout his vast career including things like - finding great growth in failures, how to be authentic to yourself and in your craft, learning when it's time to pivot, and so much more. If you're in a creative profession, I guarantee you'll get huge value out of this one! If you do, make sure to share it with a friend or someone else that would benefit from it.
