Power Hour Podcast
Podcast Description
This show will help you navigate and demystify the Power Platform.
I started this show as I wanted to learn from other Developers, Consultants, Contractors, and Entrepreneurs with many years more of experience than me, and since I was going to have these conversations anyway, I thought I could turn them into a show and let others learn with me.
I hope you enjoy these unfiltered conversations.
