Running multiple successful businesses is not an easy job. It will take some time but it’s totally possible if you do it right.

It didn’t happen overnight for Dan Henderson, either.

At a very young age, he had the makings of an entrepreneur, and a knack for creating something out of nothing.

Although his folks wanted him to get a degree that would land him a white-collared job, Dan wanted to try something else.. But what?

Dan thought he’d want to take his shot in the police force among many other things, but his calling seemed nowhere to be found.

Little did he know that his calling was happening in the trunk of his car as a personal fitness trainer. 

I sit with Dan as we talk about uncovering the secrets of finding joy, and thriving in a career that we love while keeping our priorities in check. 

Hit the play button and be a part of this meaningful conversation.

See you in there, legends.

Cheers
