Hi, I’m Andrew Bracewell. I don’t have a degree, haven’t authored a book and to this point in my life, have not done anything that would warrant having a podcast, Except…I’m amazing at one thing. I have a knack for finding extraordinary people and getting them to talk. I think our world is full of amazing people who do amazing things…I don’t mean the famous kind; I mean the everyday kind.
There are people all around us doing awesome shit because they want to. These people fascinate me. I want to talk to them, ask them questions and listen to their answers. Most importantly, I want to tell their stories so that we can all learn from and be inspired by, Everyday Amazing.
