Description

Dan Martell is a serial entrepreneur, angel investor, coach, and motivational speaker, and he is one of the most inspiring people I've ever had on my show. He has founded five companies, successfully sold three of them, and invested in over 65 software companies. Dan is also the author of the best-selling book Buy Back Your Time, which recently became a top 20 nonfiction book globally. Additionally, he hosts the popular podcast The Growth Stacking Show.  From overcoming a troubled youth, including battles with ADHD and addiction, to becoming a celebrated business leader, Dan's journey is a testament to resilience and the power of transformation. He offers some of the most profound advice I've ever heard on the show for those facing personal and professional challenges.Timestamps:0:00 - Introduction1:48 - Dan Martell's Early Life and ADHD Diagnosis2:34 - Dan's Family Background and Parents' Influence4:41 - Dealing with His Mom's Alcoholism6:48 - Anger Issues and Behavioral Problems8:41 - First Encounters with the Law and Group Homes12:21 - Starting Drug Use and the Consequences15:14 - Experiences in Foster Care20:21 - The Incident with the Roman Candles24:51 - Life in a Group Home with Troubled Youths28:04 - Desire for Revenge and Personal Growth31:47 - Randall's Story of Career Setbacks and Resilience33:06 - Working with Foster Care Systems33:41 - Involvement with Motorcycle Gangs37:24 - The High-Speed Chase and Arrest42:00 - Interaction with Guard Brian and a Life-Changing ConversationSponsors:Sandee | Bliss: BeachesWant to Connect?
