  • EP 08 - Pride Comes Before the Fall w/ Paul Edwards
    Apr 14 2021

    This is Paul Edwards.

    Bestselling Author, Ghostwriter and self-proclaimed egomaniac for 30 years.

    On the surface, Paul is the typical successful entrepreneur. A charismatic leader and loving family father who seems to have achieved everything that life has to offer. He's precisely the type of person that I created this podcast for. Because behind the perfectly polished facade lies a recovering egomaniac with an incredible story to tell. 

    We'll talk about:

    • the million ways to screw it up and the few ways to get it right
    • the importance of giving genuinely 
    • the cost of failure and the consequences 
    • the question: "Why do we not care enough anymore?"
