When people talk about Seth Godin, they often attach a variety of labels. Entrepreneur, marketer, mega-bestselling author, acclaimed speaker, trusted-advisor, provocateur, raconteur extraordinaire and ruckus-maker. He is all those. But, when I think of Seth, the first word that comes to me is generous. Seth is a stunningly insightful thinker and doer. But beyond that, he is kind, compassionate and fiercely curious. And, I'm fortunate to also call him a friend. So, when I had a chance to sit down with Seth to record a conversation about everything from his love of books and technology, creativity and making, fear and experimentation and what it really means to live a good life, it was one of those conversations I didn't want to end. We first aired this conversation as a GLP TV episode. I'm so excited to share this "Best Of" episode with you now as a podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  • I want to scale trust.

  • I'm not measuring revenue.

  • I'm not measuring profit.

  • I'm measuring trust.

  • If I can continue to do projects that over time, people are willing to give me the benefit of the doubt and let me make the next project, then I view that as a good day.

  • Over the last three years, I've had an incredible opportunity to sit down with just a stunning array of human beings.

  • And I wanted to take this week and next week to go back into our archives and share two moments with you that I thought were really powerful.

  • Two conversations I thought were really powerful.

  • It doesn't mean that they're better or worse then, but these are things where, if you're newer to the project or if you've been listening the whole time, I think they're conversations that it makes sense to dip back into on a periodic basis.

  • So I wanted to bubble them back up to the top.

  • So for this weekend, next week, we'll be featuring these two best of episodes.

  • The first one, this week's, is Seth Godin.

  • I had a chance to sit down with Seth.

  • I've known Seth for a number of years now.

  • He's a friend and he lives locally, so it makes it easier.

  • And we talked about some things that he doesn't always talk about.

  • And the conversation was received incredibly well.

  • I always learned so much from his genuineness and his generosity.

  • It was always, it was a pleasure, a real pleasure to reconcile toward this conversation, and I hope you enjoy listening to it as well.

  • I'm Jonathan Fields.
