Financial independence is a well sought-after goal in the investing space. 

That's the whole point of investing, right? It's to limit how much time we dedicate to working a job we don't enjoy and increase the amount of time dedicated to loved ones, traveling, go on vacation, and other fun things!

Ryan Doner is here to explain there's more to life than just working, and there's more to financial independence than what meets the eye. See Ryan's point of view on FI with a philosopher's touch, lots to dig in on this episode!

Nothing grand in life is easy, and the path you take to find your happiness and success might not be straight forward. This week’s guest, Matt Dulin, weaves us through his journey from growing up on Sesame Street in Tempe Arizona, moving to Denver as a kid, to living on farms, in a RV by the river and in the Bay Area as a corporate chef at Pinterest.  

In this episode Ian and Matt dive into the importance of feeling connected to the work you’re doing and the community that surrounds you. When Matt realized it was time to come back to his support system in Denver, he was driven to be a good chef, strong leader and a mentor inside and out of the kitchen.

It's time to get the world back into FOOD FESTIVALS!

I was graciously introduced to the wonderful Gaby Reyes of Feed Me Events not too long ago and became an instant fan of her work. It's not often I can chat about the San Diego scene as well as the Denver scene to compare, contrast, and just bask in the glory of everything food related.

Definitely check out some of the awesome events Gaby has planned for the Denver community. You're going to have to listen to the podcast to get the inside scoop on when and where everything's happening :)

Caitlin Howington of Pint's Peak has been on my radar ever since I moved here in August of 2020. In fact, when I was doing research on the Denver local scene, I read the 5280 Magazine article featuring Pint's Peak and their first line of flavors. I KNEW I had to get Caitlin on the podcast!

From her transition to starting an ice cream business, to promoting at huge food and wine festivals, to kitchen freezer woes, we talk about everything Pint's Peak.

Be sure to wait until the end where I sample 7 different flavors while getting the inside scoop (no pun intended) on how Caitlin comes up with these incredible concoctions.

The only way to grow is when you're out of your comfort zone, right?

After hearing about the last @denverbazaar of the year, I had to go out there and support the locals businesses. You'll get to hear 5-minute interviews featuring Samosa Shop, Mad Lemon, Hop Passport, and Yummy Yummy Products. It's a new spin on the podcast layout, so I hope you enjoy!

These businesses and individuals will be here WAY past the Denver Bazaar time, so check them out in 2022. This is merely a "hello" to their business.
