Brian O'Connor, who runs TalentHQ (an overseas recruiting agency), hosts the Legends of Scale podcast and reached out to Travis (the recipient) about potentially appearing on the show. Antonella facilitated the introduction via LinkedIn. Brian proposed a strategy call and offered specific time slots (2 or 3PM on the 7th, or 9th at the same time, EST) as the 8th was fully booked—Travis needs to confirm his availability for one of these slots.
