Today's podcast is our first repeat guest and our first deep dive episode. Some of the feedback I've had around the podcast is that we only skim the surface of people's businesses and some people want us to look behind the curtain.  So, in what will be the first of many episodes where we look at what skills people are bringing to their world, we speak to life coach Dan Piler about what he actually does and how he helps. I think there is lots to takeaway from this episode and I hope you enjoy. You can find Dan at www.danpiler.com and all the social handles below.
