Hi, my name is Goran Yerkovich. I'm a writer, podcaster, and consultant, but most important, I'm the proud son of immigrant parents who taught me many things, including the power of story.

With over two million articles read in over 130 countries, and press releases picked up by hundreds of news agencies across the globe, and stories and interviews from some of the best and most brilliant minds, I have spent years as a writer and podcaster gathering lessons on personal growth and career advice that I hope help you in your journey.

I also have over 15 years experience as a consultant and business insider in the North American marketplace, working at some of the biggest companies across Canada, in both private and public sectors, I'm here to share the best tips I've learned.

Through the stories I share on this site, my mission is to help you reach your biggest career goals and personal ambitions in this new post-pandemic world. And the catch? There's no catch.

So why am I doing this? Well, in life I believe it's not about what you get, but what you give.
