In our 9th episode, I share the story of coming back to Denver after college.  This was a dark time in my life because, like many folks, college did not lead to the future I had planned on.  I came back to find my friends moving on, a job market choked with other over-educated and under-qualified folks like myself, and a lack of purpose that I couldn't shake.  My fear of failure and loneliness allowed me to fight my depression and start listening to friends to begin my next steps.  Sometimes, fear is a great motivator.
