Rest with Darryl Kelly & Michelle Lee

Hosted by Darryl Kelly, founder of the productivity platform Hectic, The Hectic Podcast moves beyond dry business theory to explore the human stories behind entrepreneurship and marketing. Each episode features candid discussions with founders, creators, and freelancers who share the unvarnished details of their path-the unexpected setbacks, the hard-won victories, and the personal growth that happens off the spreadsheet. This podcast digs into the emotional landscape of building something from nothing, offering listeners not just tactical advice, but a sense of solidarity. You'll hear how guests navigated specific challenges, from client acquisition struggles to the isolation of solo work, and how they found their way through. The focus is on practical resilience, pulling tangible lessons from both failures and successes. It’s a space that acknowledges the hustle while also validating the universal doubts and pressures that come with it. For anyone running their own business or side project, this series provides a regular dose of real-world perspective and connection, emphasizing that the journey is rarely a straight line. Tune in weekly for conversations that are as much about mindset and community as they are about strategy, all grounded in the authentic experiences of people who have been there.
