  • Content Doesn’t Get Much Better!

    With so many podcasts on the market today, it is so hard to break through the noise. I was recently turned on to Brave Dynamics by a friend of mine, and after tuning into a couple of episodes, it has made it’s way into my weekly routine! I literally leave 1 un-listened episode in my queue simply because I hate the thought of running out of Jeremy content! Keep it up!!

  • Authentic & Inspirational

    I especially loved Episode #10, where Andrew Ive talks about how the younger generation is realizing that every dollar, pound or Euro that they spend is a vote. Incredibly useful in kickstarting my thought process around customers & the entrepreneur’s relationship with them
