We discuss setting ego aside to confront issues within ourselves, the reality of drinking through issues, and being ok with not being ok.

#122- Eastern Nevada SME Sep 07, 2022

Show notes

For the first time Mining Minds took to the road to podcast away from home. The Eastern Nevada Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration held their annual fundraiser event in Ely Nevada, and we had the opportunity to speak with many of the individuals and businesses attending. We met some amazing people, had great conversations, and were able to talk a little trash while podcasting from hole number one at the White Pine County Golf Course. In this extra-long podcast, we get a great picture of what it looks and feels like to live in a mining community. Join Mining Minds as we hit the road to The Eastern Nevada SME fundraiser event.
