In this episode of the Growth Now Movement, I sit down with my friend Devin Sizemore, a seasoned entrepreneur and mentor who has dedicated his career to helping others accelerate their success. Devin takes us through his journey from being a hungry, young entrepreneur to becoming a trusted guide for others who are building businesses and striving to make an impact.
We dive deep into the importance of stepping into the mentor role, why giving back matters, and how to shorten the learning curve for others so they can achieve results faster. Devin shares powerful strategies for always putting yourself in the right rooms, surrounding yourself with the right people, and creating opportunities that can transform your business and your life.
One of the biggest themes in this conversation is the idea of creating “wow moments” in both business and sales. Devin breaks down how exceeding expectations and focusing on the customer experience can completely change the trajectory of your growth. We even touch on what entrepreneurs can learn from the magic of Disney when it comes to creating unforgettable experiences.
Devin also introduces us to his ACEs community, a powerful platform designed to help entrepreneurs master networking, make meaningful connections, and learn from expert interviews. He explains how surrounding yourself with the right community can give you the edge you need to scale faster and lead with abundance.
If you’ve ever wondered how to build authentic relationships, grow your network without being transactional, and create a lasting impact, this episode will give you practical strategies and real-world examples to apply immediately.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
