Micah Brown Podcast
25 episodes - English - Latest episode: almost 4 years ago -The podcast made to connect interesting people in an intentional way. Often when obstacles are in our way, individually or corporately, we can forget the humanity of us all. We forget that we’re all human beings. On my show, I want to chat with interesting people, who are human just like you and me. What obstacles have they overcome? What interesting things are they doing? — Let’s get back to connecting intentionally.
