Welcome to a rare solo episode of Beware The Wild Animals. There’s a reason my solo episodes are rare.

When I am sans guest, I have to over plan what I’m going to say. I also think I’m funnier than I really am. Put these things together, and you get a short and sometimes cringeworthy experience to behold.

Most podcasters would never release an episode that fits this description. But, I’m not most people. I don’t fit in a box and despite what some people may think, I don’t always play by the rules. That's the point of this podcast, isn't it?

So, if you’re even a little curious and have nothing else to do for the next thirteen minutes, press play and have a good laugh at my expense. Oh, and you just might come away with a new outlook on life.

We are taking a break this month in order to focus on some other projects. Our plan is to be back in October with an all new episode, but in the mean time, we hope you enjoy this encore presentation of our most popular episode.

In September, 2023, we spoke with Niki about her unique career choices and being a female in a male dominated community.

This is also a great time to revisit the show catalog and listen to there favorites or an episode you may have missed.

Maria Joyner is a 4X founder and Marketing Technologist. In 2015, she traveled to Costa Rica to spend 3 months at a self-sufficient, off-the-grid, permaculture farm. That experience altered her life so much that she sold all of her belongings and moved to Costa Rica. For the past 9 years, she's been running a business remotely and enjoying the Pura Vida life.

She currently serves in two roles professionally: a marketing technology consultant for founder-led companies generating $3M-$30M in annual revenue; and she is the founder of the Quantum Leap Women's Experience which helps women successfully make big life changes. She's married with a four-year-old son. And today she is going to share her thoughts on facing fear, exercising your fear and failure muscle, living off the grid, and building an authentic life.

The Quantum Leap Experience is coming up in October 2024. To find out more and purchase your ticket, visit
