Better With Paul is a podcast, newsletter, and community for everyone who values legacy, culture and financial freedom. Periodically, I identify and dissect business, relationship and health lessons from the journeys of innovators, entrepreneurs and creators from the U.S., UK, Caribbean and Africa.
In the periodic newsletter, I share lessons learned preparing, interviewing, and observing the world’s top performers. I also include announcements and invitations to special events. To join, please subscribe below.
