Your Good News Podcast with Katherine Getty

Welcome back to another episode of the Your Good News Podcast!

On this week’s episode, Katherine is joined by Mark Williams, a seasoned, dynamic, and high-energy government affairs professional.

As we continue on mentorship month, Mark offers up his mantra of “work hard, be nice.” He explains how this has been a north star for his career and personal life. We discuss the importance of not being rigid in plans – allowing yourself to explore interests and not get stuck on one exact path. We also discuss motion over momentum – how actions can cause activity but not be pulling you forward.
