Can YOU Change the World? I have a surprise for you. You probably already have… for at least someone. What I do for a living has allowed me to be in the company of some pretty extraordinary people. Luckily, I’ve had the opportunity to be around people who’ve built multi-million dollar businesses and people who’ve…

Recently, I’ve had to take a good, long, hard, look inside myself. And it’s pushed me to a place where I’ve had to battle with my inner demons. And believe me. I’ve GOT EM! Why? It’s simple. Over the past few weeks my more severe son on the spectrum (he’s now 24) has gotten very…
