When we were doing Seeking Wisdom Live at WeWork, a quick story came up.

DC went back to when DG first got his job at Drift -- from the interview process to getting an offer -- and started to a tell a story about hiring, what to look for in people that you can't find on a resume or a LinkedIn profile.

So we sat down and told the whole story, finally, on this episode of Seeking Wisdom.

This one is all about seizing the the opportunity and finding your superpower.
