Welcome again to the LIVETHEFUEL show, today we are live from #MAPCON (Mid-Atlantic Podcast Conference), just outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania experiencing Excellence Expected! (Note: If you hear any background noise we recording live from the after party and while a wedding let out and joined in on the fun as well..)

Sometimes we don’t expect enough of ourselves. We hide until things are perfect, that’s a fool's game. You are better than you think you are. This is the thought of today’s Co-Host.

Today's guest runs multiple businesses, founder of small business Podcast Excellence Expected and co-founder of PodcastWebsites.com with John Lee Dumas where podcasting is kept simple. This very platform is where my podcast was launched. He has flown all the way from the United Kingdom to be here at #MAPCON 2016, he is Mark Asquith.

The first time you do anything will be better than you thought, granted you may still beat yourself up about it but just keep expecting the best from yourself.
