In this bonus episode of The Stripped Back Podcast, Stephen takes a step back and reflects on the notes, thoughts, and lessons he has gathered over the last few years since launching the Insight page on Instagram and eventually turning it into a podcast alongside co-host Keith.From building a community and creating meaningful industry connections to opening doors that never seemed possible, Stephen shares the many positives that come from putting yourself out there and documenting your journey.
