About this episode

Hello and welcome back to Ctrl Alt Delete, my guest today is Jamie Varon: writer, designer, digital course creator, and creative consultant living in California. Today we are talking about her book Radically Content - Being Satifisied in an Endlessly Dissatisfied World. If you enjoy Jamie’s musings, vignettes and writing that she posts on her Instagram to thousands of people you’ll absolutely love having a physical copy of this book. Jamie and I crossed digital paths years ago in the blogging space and it’s just so great that we got to have this chat for the podcast as this topic of defining our own inner value system and ideas of success is something I’m writing about at the moment too with my next book. So this was a great chat and I hope you enjoy it.
