Listen Later

Like many of us, Charles Drenberg faced some scary uncertainty in 2008.  He took that opportunity to evolve, and get on a path that has made him much more fulfilled and successful in business and life.  He started one the first comedic sports blogs (like Barstool Sports before it was a thing), that taught him the value of content, set him on track to become a coder and marketing expert, and now is the CEO of two companies, husband, and father with a great social circle.  This was an eye opening episode that will teach you how to take the lumps on the road, and find winning destinations.
