How the Podcast Began

The Everyday Innovator™

 

1 RV, 54 Weeks, 22,000 Miles…


Product Manager On The RoadThe Everyday Innovator™ Podcast
 started in a very unique way – an epic roadtrip! I took my wife, two kids, and all the things we could stuff into a 280 sq ft 36′ motorhome, and traveled the US for an entire year.  22,000 miles later we had built some great experiences together and I had interviewed several people who were product developers, managers, innovators, and business leaders. If you want to know more about that adventure, take a look at these posts and learn how it all started.

When I returned home, it wasn’t long until I started missing the discussions I had while on the road. I turned my attention to podcasting, took a great class on interviewing from Andrew Warner (founder of Mixergy), and started weekly episodes featuring interviews with knowledgeable guests.

BTW…

The #1 question we were asked while traveling and even today when talking about the trip is…

What was your favorite place you visited?

Well, there were many. We didn’t go a place we didn’t enjoy.  Just a few… Myrtle Beach, SC; the Great Smoky Mountains (Tennessee); Crested Butte, CO; Grand Tetons (Wyoming); San Francisco, CA; Victoria, BC; …

But, that’s not how I answer the question. My answer to the favorite place question? That’s easy…

My favorite place was always where we were going next.

My joy was in the journey.
