Ep 181: The Art of Making Things Happen with the Real Wizard of Oz STEVE SIMS

One of my clients gifted me an amazing personal development book and for the first time in a long time, I basically read it all in one sitting. It was SO good, I connected with the author and invited him on the show.

I talked to Steve Sims, author, speaker, coach and named by Forbes the real Wizard of Oz. His specialty is making things happen! He's worked with Sir Elton John, Elon Musk, he's taken people on a submarine down to the Titanic… he's a freaking legend and has SO much wisdom to share, especially for entrepreneurs.

We talked about getting out of your own way, handling your emotions, the importance of interpersonal relationships in business and life, and so much more.
