Ever attend an Instagram meetup and feel like you're not good enough? Carl and I have both been there. You don't have enough followers, your work isn't cool and you leave the meetup wishing you'd have never even attended.
That was before Walk With Locals existed. Carl Maynard or @carlnard founded Walk With Locals organically with friends and a few strangers. From there, he wanted it to simply be about community. No one was ever asked for their social media handle or how any followers they had. Even after a few years of growth and success, Carl still doesn't leverage the influence of Walk With Locals for anything other than the sake of the community.
I chat with Carl about how he launched Walk With Locals and what inspired him to do so. We also discuss feeling lonely or unappreciated when someone asks us "what's your handle?" and we don't have "enough" followers.
If you're looking for community, or simply want to hear a hopeful and optimistic take on Instagram friendships, this episode is for you.
