It’s no secret that if you want to succeed in life, you have to be willing to work for it.

Work ethic is often seen as a product of a good upbringing or even something innate…

But sometimes, nothing will light a fire under your ass like loss — the realization that you alone are responsible for taking care of the people you love.

That realization hit Alex Lieberman, Co-Founder of Morning Brew, at a young age when the loss of his father spurred him to take charge of his family’s income — and it still drives him today, despite his many career successes.  

In this episode, we discuss that incredible career, including:

• How a dearth of good content for business students inspired Alex
• How a horrible first boss led Alex to find his creative passion 
• Why Alex took the risk of leaving a stable job to found a startup
