Joining me on the podcast today is Kevin McWilliams.

In this episode, Kevin shares his story of developing a growth mindset and the impact that shift has had on his life.

Kevin and I discuss how to align your time with your priorities to get what you want. We also dive into his love for sports, his complicated relationship with his dad, and spotting career opportunities.

This episode is perfect for anyone looking for inspiration to push past their limiting beliefs.
