Hi, and welcome to the yoga news podcast with me, Katherine Getty. It's easy to believe the news around us that the world is dark in the future is the same. But what if we chose something different? What if we chose to find the good news in each day? This podcast is a collection of interviews with friends, mentors, colleagues, on their good news, from business to health, to politics, and everything in between. It's my hope that you leave the booths and find your good news. As mentorship month or so I call it continues. I want to end out this theme with another interview on how to gain mentors, how to accept or challenge their advice, and most importantly, the wisdom of just being nice and working hard. Today, we're joined by Mark Williams and Mark and I met in DC. And I was instantly struck by how dynamic he is. It's pretty easy to hear, as you'll hear shortly, how he seeks to build bridges and our conversation circles around advice he got along the way. We touch not only on not being too rigid in the path you choose, being open to advice from mentors and asking for that help. Without further ado, my interview with Mark welcome back to a another episode of The your good news podcast. I always begin asking the same question. So Mark, what's your good news today?
