This episode chronicles his evolution, fueled by the diverse insights of over 200 interviewees, the steady encouragement of his wife Announcer and family, and a commitment to showing up consistently. He recounts how external challenges and internal reflection shaped his understanding of purpose, impact, and the true meaning of success.
