Business with Mr. John Lillie
Proud Stanford graduate, and wise businessman John Lillie and I chat about everything from his current day to day life, his past, and all the lessons learned in the journey. Also, we talk about the power of sticking to your own values, regardless of the consequences. As you grow up, the choices you make increase in difficulty, and you may even question your own values along the way. Will you stay loyal to who you are or surrender to others’ ideals?
