117 - DSG QuoteI am beyond excited about this podcast guest. Not only is this particular guest a very good friend of mine, but he has a crazy cool story and wickedly successful business.

David Siteman Garland is known for his website The Rise to the Top and for helping others create awesome online courses, but he  has a little secret. David didn’t go into entrepreneurship with a plan and he didn’t always know that this is the lifestyle he wanted. *gasp*

This was a little shocking for me to find out because from the outside he seemed like a man with a plan, having interviewed hundreds of successful entrepreneurs like Seth Godin, secured major sponsorships and continued to build a thriving and dedicated audience over the years.

Working his way from a 9-5 to building his own brand from scratch, he has learned the importance of being yourself to build a brand that resonates. Full of insight, tips and strategies for helping other entrepreneurs create great work you’ll definitely want to listen in.
