Are Conferences & Retreats Worth It? The Radical Recap 6 | 13

Kim is fresh back from SXSW where she was hosting a live episode of her other podcast Radical Respect — you may notice some bonus episodes of it in your feed — and officially launching her forthcoming book Radical Respect, available for pre-order everywhere books are sold. The team also discusses mentorship, the benefits and drawbacks of conferences and retreats, and they each paint a picture of their ideal Radical Candor getaway. Amy reflects on her 2013 SXSW experience, including an all-night hunt for Grumpy Cat.
