In this episode, I’m sharing my journey from being broke to running multiple million-dollar businesses and the lessons I’ve learned along the way. I love starting businesses and have a spreadsheet of 72 of them. I’ve also done crazy things like partnering with John McAfee and donating my kidney to a stranger.

Timestamps below.  Enjoy!
