Dave Cornell + The Power of Resilience

A fully lived and understood life can only be achieved by those who choose to break average. If you are too careful, too cautious, or even too comfortable, then you will likely fall short of reaching your potential.  In other words, choosing average, which is default living, will keep you from being your best.

This podcast explores a different path -- it explores what it means to break average.  Each week we share insights and ideas to help propel you forward, curated from our own experiences, plus some of the top thought leaders in industry today. We share resources, practical tips, and helpful stories and science to give you tools to help you grow and make an impact.
