In this episode we explore:

- what he learned from his mentors and the leadership he witnessed, including how Bill Clinton treated everyone with respect and gave them his full attention
- importance of taking the time to be grateful for what you have instead of focusing on the next big thing
- how being part of a mastermind group helped him realize his niche was relationship-building
- how to develop deeper business relationships through thoughtful and strategic outreach throughout the year
