Jacob Willis

This is the latest from Jake the intern – He’s getting so good I think he’s vying for my job.

Last week’s episode with Mitch Joel was all about the future, something that can be pretty scary territory for a conversation these days. Musk. Zuckerberg. State controlled censorship. Will our relationships, our human-to-human connections, our identities ever be the same?

Well, Jake grew up in the midst of this internet age, and he’s got a lot to say.

This one should be fun. I’m sure many of you aren’t going to agree with Jake’s points here – if that’s you, he would love to hear your feedback. We need to be having these important conversations between people from all walks of life as we head towards an even more digital world.

Jacob Henriksen-Willis is part of the Chatter that Matters Team. This week he shares his key takeaways from my chat with Natalie Marchesan. To do so, and on his initiative, he reaches out to Megan Quintin, for their opinion. Well done.

Natalie has a fantastic story that takes her from taking on her Bishop to the military to leading global procurement, with the thread being a passion and purpose to level the playing field.

There are some wonderful life lessons for all. This Friday Mitch Joel in an episode I have titled: Say it is so, Joel.

Jake the Intern is back. Each Friday I ask Jacob Henriksen-Willis to listen to Chatter that Matters and then post his thoughts on the episode on the following Monday.

This is his take on my chat with Leslie Ehm. Jacob is a great addition to the team and I really enjoy his segments. Let me know what you think.

If you want to listen to the entire episode. Chatter that Matters wherever you get your podcasts, or click here:

Jacob Henriksen-Willis is a paid intern who is helping me get the word out on Chatter that Matters. I am interested in his perspective on my content, as Jacob is just starting his career.

This is the second week that Jacob has created an audio review. For a young man he is suprisingly talented at not only his delivery, but the way he frames his thoughts.

This is his take on my episode this week with Joe Foster who, with his brother Jeff, started a shoe business on a shoestring. That business became Reebok and during Joe's time, the biggest running shoe brand in the world. Bigger than Nike and Adidas.

How? You will have to listen to find out. :)

It's Monday which means 'Jake the Intern', is in the house. This time Jake breaks down his key takeaway from my chat with Ken Wong. I agree with all he says about the positive and profound impact great teachers make on your lives.

It's Monday and that means that Jake, the intern, i.e. Jacob Henriksen-Willis, unpacks my latest episode of Chatter that Matters, where I chat with one of the greatest soccer players of all time, Christine Sinclair.

Jake talks about the importance of role models.

I hired a paid intern this year. His name is Jacob Henriksen-Willis. He does research, offers his perspective, and posts content on social media. Last Friday, I said why don't you write reviews on each episode from the context of someone starting their career.

Instead of writing something he went several steps further. He went for a walk and created this video review of my podcast interview with one of Canada's most admired business leaders, Jim Estill.

Have a listen and let Jacob know what you think.
