EPISODE GUIDE
Are you ready for a spirited conversation about curiosity, desire, and a little something on the side? You may remember Caitlin Horton from episode 45: Boldly Go + Get Things Done. You know, the cool girl living in Shanghai who holds four degrees, speaks multiple languages and is currently learning another. She is a published author + brand designer + business strategist. We invited Caitlin back to talk about side projects aka passion projects. We chat about exploring and adventuring (this girl gets around!), her newest endeavor, co-hosting Memphis Type History the podcast, and the book that started it all.
Listen if you want to learn:
- Who has the wildest “crazy thing I ate” story
- The debate over what makes a passion project
- What drives Caitlin’s experimental attitude
- How Memphis Type History came to be
- About Misty’s first boyfriend
BONUS! Hear one of our favorite Memphis Type History episodes right here in the show.
