Breaking Barriers
Breaking Barriers Celebrates 5 Years helping Entrepreneurs and motivated people learn and grow through the painful, yet true journeys of our guests. CEO & Founder of Adapting Social (Global Ad & Design Agency), John A. Vagueiro, created this podcast to provide valuable content to entrepreneurs starting, struggling or wanting to take their shit to the next level! We are blessed to have the help of successful founders, artists, actors, athletes, and television personalities who share their stories and how they broke out of their barriers to create success in their lives. They discuss their journey while cutting out the "sexy" elements and focusing on the challenges they faced that led them to break through the success barrier. Any fool can learn from their own mistakes, it takes a wise person to learn from others.
