In this episode, I had the honor of speaking with the legendary Steven Van Zandt about his incredible life journey. We discussed his resilience, how he navigated life's challenges, and the lessons he learned when things seemed to fall apart. Steven shared his insights on overcoming career setbacks, the battle between good and evil, and finding purpose when hope feels distant. He also spoke about his experiences with weight loss, and how he lost 100 pounds in 6 months. This conversation is full of inspiration and practical advice.
