Welcome to Borrowing Brilliance, a new segment of the TTRPG podcast Dragon Mind. In this segment, John and Stephanie borrow brilliance from our world's most insightful minds to become better game masters, players, and people.

Today, John and Stephanie break down the Seven Baby Steps to becoming a masterful GM, which are also invaluable when starting a new campaign or getting to know a new play group.

In this episode, we discuss two individuals doing amazing things in the world.

First is Dave Ramsey, a personal finance personality, radio show host, author, and businessman. His Seven Baby Steps to Financial Freedom (which inspired the structure of today's discussion) can be found here: https://www.ramseysolutions.com/dave-ramsey-7-baby-steps
