In this new episode of Unlock Your Potential, we welcome Andrew Bustamante, a former CIA agent who runs a program called Everyday Spy.


Ever wondered how someone becomes a CIA spy? Andrew starts the episode by unveiling his fascinating journey and sheds light on everyday actions that unknowingly expose us to potential risks.


Midway through, we delve into the key differentiator between a spy and the average person: Compartmentalization. Discover how compartmentalizing is crucial to help you break barriers to success.


Near the end of the episode, Andrew shares a powerful concept from the world of espionage that entrepreneurs can apply to their lives: Don't try to fix your weaknesses, try to improve your strengths.
