Hello, world, welcome to discover your talent, do what you love.

I'm your host, Don Hutchison.

Every Monday and Wednesday, I interview someone from around the world who's discovered their talents to do work

they love to create a life of success, satisfaction, and freedom. On Fridays, I interview a well-known

expert from the fields of personal or business development who share experiences, tools, and

insights to help our listeners along their journeys. In honor of the four-year

anniversary of our podcast, over the next several weeks, we will be sharing with you the most

popular interviews from our first 777 shows. We hope you enjoy them, and we look forward to

sharing the journeys of more fascinating guests soon.

Justin felt his campus interview with a Fortune 500 company had gone well.

When he didn't get a call from them, he made a friend inside the company and kept calling back for 30 days.

His persistence paid off.

I'm delighted to bring you our featured guest, Justin Shelby. Welcome, Justin.

Thanks. Glad to be here. Our pleasure. Justin, are you using your talents doing work that you love?

Yes, I am. All right. Justin Shelby is the CEO and founder of Ardichoke, a complete business solution for the rapidly growing community of freelancers,

independent practitioners, and moonlighters operating in the U.S.

He has extensive product development, marketing, leadership, and startup experience.

He's held leadership positions in Fortune 500 growth stage and startup companies,

in addition to having launched over 100 products in 16 countries.

Justin, that's a summary of your career.

Tell our listeners around the world what you're engaged in now that has you excited and motivated,

please.
