Episode Notes
About the Guest:

Say hello to David Meltzer. After becoming a millionaire nine months out of law school (not by being a lawyer, mind you), David was hired as CEO of his dream company. But in 2008, his multimillionaire status turned into bankruptcy. From this, he learned to attach his intentions not to outcomes but to the pursuit of his own potential. While some people may pursue the paths others set for them, David says he follows his own path by identifying who he really is inside—someone who was born to help others. Today, David runs Sports 1 Marketing, hosts The Playbook Podcast, and acts as a board member for several societies and organizations.
