And the way that you grow your resilience is by putting yourself in that uncomfortable situation. So from my perspective, I try to put myself in that situation every day.”“We [Power Ledger] see this as an evolution, not an extinction event.”7y8qr5yz See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
