Jeremy Ryan Slate received his master's degree in ancient history from Seton Hall University, studied literature at Oxford University and graduated into one of the worst job markets in history.

His intention was to get his PhD and teach college, but he didn't see a way to get a job as a professor at the time. He ended up continuing as the weekend manager at the same gym he worked at for 8 years. He took on a job painting houses which led to about 8 months of 16-hour days. He then took a position as a high school history teacher, and it turned out to be precisely what he didn't want his life to be. He resigned from teaching to start a personal training company, MLM business and sell life insurance at the same time. That was the start of his entrepreneurial journey.

Jeremy Ryan Slate started the Create Your Own Life Podcast In late 2015.  He was struggling as an entrepreneur then, but due to hard work and determination his life very quickly took off.  

On Today's Episode Jeremy and I discuss:

• A simple knee surgery turned into a near death experience
• Advice for someone struggling to take their first action step
• Learning the hard way with Jeremy's first entrepreneurial endeavor
• What you can do today to make a positive change in your life
• And much more…

David Alan is the founder of The Proper Knot and David Alan Clothing. He has a great story of overcoming challenge after challenge, and coming out stronger. David graduated college following the path he thought he was supposed to, and it landed him in medical sales. He did well but got frustrated with the corporate world.

David started his first business with a few friends at 23 which had some legs but ultimately failed because his partners looked at it as more of a hobby than a company. This gave Dave the experience he needed to go and start The Proper Knot. I don't want to give too much away, but we learn how David turned an accessory for a necktie into a full-fledged fashion business. David Alan Clothing has partnerships with WWE and has guys like John Cena exclusively wearing their suits.  Hear David's wild ride and complete hustle growing the business to where it is today.  

On Today's Episode David and I discuss:

• David's growing frustration with the corporate world and realizing how disposable he was to his company
• Starting his first solo business, The Proper Knot, while still working in medical sales
• How the challenges that happened early in David's life prepared him for the roller-coaster ride of starting his clothing business
• Building and maintaining real relationships with influencers, especially the WWE
• And much more…
