Authenticity, getting real, being true to yourself … we’ve all heard those clichés a time or two. The truth is at some point we’ve all uttered them for one reason or another. But here’s the thing, hearing or saying them means nothing, it’s easy. The real value comes from stepping out and being bold enough to act because when you do, the universe takes notice, and some pretty awesome things begin happening.

“Your comfort zone is a death sentence.” (Craig), 1:52

My guest today is Craig Siegel. He’s the author of the WSJ Bestseller The Reinvention Formula: How to Unlock a Bulletproof Mindset to Unlock Your Life, and quite simply one of the most amazing people I’ve ever talked to on the show. Today, Craig stops by to share his journey of reinvention, what he lost, what he learned, and the incredible life he has built by finding and becoming aligned with his authentic self. He’ll also share some of the struggles he’s overcome and offer tips on how you can do the same in your life.
