The tinychallenges podcast is about doing tiny things to get motivated, unstuck and start doing more. The show brings the concept of individual #tinychallenges to a broader group effort. Each challenge takes place in short, two-episode bundles inside a month:
The Challenge and The Check-in. It's fun, it's challenging, and it's worth every tiny step!
Hosted by Daniel Steinberg and Jaimee Newberry
Music for the show by James Dempsey and the Breakpoints
