In this episode, Paul and Chris are joined by Johanna Fink, who shares the story behind Yellow Shelf, a platform designed to help busy people discover books and podcasts through short, focused interviews. Joe reflects on his transition from corporate life to creative storytelling, and how clarity and brevity can help ideas cut through the noise.

The conversation explores concise communication, content curation, and building a community of authors and podcast hosts from around the world. Joe also discusses how Yellow Shelf was shaped by founder Johanna’s 25+ years in corporate roles across people, culture, and organisational leadership.

This episode offers a practical look at how thoughtful curation and short-form storytelling make cultural discovery more accessible, meaningful, and easy to engage with.
