Why you should be listening to Podcasts & Audible Books
Baker committed to a year onboard her first yacht. She didn’t know that it would mean getting holed up in Newport News Virginia for months on end, cleaning an already clean boat. Baker shares how she found motivation, inspiration and education through mundane tasks by listening to podcasts and audible books. She found the will to push on in her year-long commitment and see it out to the end by growing her knowledge and education while at work.
