"The better community of individuals that you can surround yourself that help teach you and you can learn from and the more vulnerable and humble you can be, I think the better off you're going to be long term." - Greg Scheinman

Greg Scheinman enjoyed the entrepreneurial aspect of production, media, and marketing and produced a few films before deciding to be a full-time entrepreneur. He worked as Harvey Weinstein's Executive Assistant in his 20's and called it quits to start his company Team Baby Entertainment which was later acquired by Disney CEO Michael Eisner. Greg is now a top executive athlete and hosts the podcast Midlife Male, where he holds in-depth, raw, and compelling interviews that reveal one's humanity and inspires action.

Greg joins Adam on the episode today and shares the wise journey he has had in life. He talks about finding opportunities amid crisis, setting and preserving boundaries, and working with intention. Listen in as he shares why our goal is to not "define" ourselves but rather "refine" ourselves. Greg and Adam connect with their ideas of serving and touching people's lives with their work. This thought keeps them motivated throughout their journeys in life.

Key Highlights

  • Learn to embrace differences. Be more open to people and opportunities, humility, and vulnerable. It is okay to ask for help when you need it.
  • Surround yourself with people that are smarter, wiser, wealthier, and ahead of you in different ways. This can phenomenally impact your thinking and life.
  • Greg shares that his career started leveling up outside of the training world because of the very people that he was around, good or bad.
  • We are here not to define ourselves but to refine ourselves.
  • It is often hard to consider ourselves creative. Bringing an idea to execution and remaining focused to complete is always a hard thing to do.
  • Greg talks about finding opportunities amid a crisis. In the current scenario, we have made our way out through even the most difficult challenges.
  • Know about Adam's fighting spirit and how he has that in everything he does.
  • Join Adam and Greg for the fun lightning round!
