This week on the show we are excited to be talking with Nathan Pettijohn about his new book Travels with Hafa!

Nathan is an author and entrepreneur who decided he needed a break in the last part of 2019. He rented an RV and along with his dog Hafa, travelled the western US.

We talk about Nathan’s background with travel, how he designs his work to allow more flexibility with adventure, and what the process of capturing a trip in book form was like.

Nathan is a contributing writer for Forbes on topics relating to what business leaders need to know about innovations in media and technology. He is also the coauthor of a short tactical guide Zen and the Art of Admin Tasks, about outsourcing administrative work. In 2011, Nathan founded Cordurouy, a digital strategy agency based in Los Angeles where he serves as CEO.
