In today's episode I have a dialogue with Jesse Cruz, an entrepreneur and speaking coach from Rochester, NY who helps speakers get paid to travel the world with their families.

Jesse shared his journey from being a veteran and youth advocate to becoming a successful speaker and coach who helps others make a living through speaking.

Jesse discussed his development of a "lead through story" framework and his experiences organizing events during the pandemic, including his transition from charging $10 to $97 per person while overcoming self-doubt and financial challenges.

The conversation concluded with Jesse's evolution into full-time entrepreneurship, his writing and publishing journey, and his current focus on hosting inclusive business networking events that combine family travel opportunities.
