Iron Sharpens Iron…Who Sharpens You?

You’re going to love this episode as I recorded it in the rarified air at 8,000 feet in Vail, CO. We just had our Mastermind Fall Mountain Retreat and had 80 fire-breathing dragons recalibrating & rejuvenating energy for 3-days as they had a chance to work ON their businesses and lives.

Additionally, four people were picked from the crowd and they got the chance to ask me their DEEP questions here on the podcast. We had some great questions on business, family, life, parenting, and IMPACT that you don’t want to miss. After all, “iron sharpens iron.” WHO sharpens you? IG story me away @ToddDurkin and let me know your biggest takeaway!

Rebecca Grijalva, Albuquerque, NM (www.finallyfitabq.com)
