Dealing with failure can be challenging and affect our self-esteem, but it is important to change the lens on how we see failure. Each failure, although sometimes painful, comes with its lessons on how we can improve and do better at our next endeavor. Today’s guest is a great example of doing just that. Anthony Russo is an emcee, performance coach, and motivational speaker that specializes in overcoming failure. He is the founder of #BeTheChange, Awake Not Woke clothing, and Host of The Truth Will Set You Free podcast, and his new show Blunt Force Discussion. Anthony loves the idea of having a conversation and meeting people where they are in life, business, and even politics.

In this episode, Anthony is candid about the failures he has overcome in his life, and how he chose to see each one as a lesson and accept that each one was leading him to a greater purpose. His goal is to never make the same mistake twice, so he is committed to continuing to learn and improve.

With his new podcast, Blunt Force Discussion, Anthony is having important conversations about what is taking place in our country and accepts various views and opinions. His goal with this podcast is to have meaningful discussions, connect with people regardless of their opinion, and emphasize that we are all humans and we are not against each other.
