The Art of Doing with Camille Sweeney and Josh Gosfield
A few weeks ago I came across a book called
The Art of Doing on
Forbes. It turns out that it was all about how extraordinary people do what they do. Given my curiosity about this question, I did what I do best. I stalked the authors and convinced them to make an appearance on BlogcastFM. Josh and Camille are a husband wife team who wrote this book together.
