If there’s one thing nearly all entrepreneurs and business owners have in common it is the desire to live a life of significance. We want to do something that matters, something that makes a positive impact in the world. A great example of this is our guest on today’s episode of The Speaker Lab, Mr. Aaron Walker.
Aaron has been self-employed and owned a business of some variety since the age of 18; he hasn’t worked for anyone else in 38 years! In all of those years, he has experienced the full spectrum of the entrepreneurial journey: the highs, the lows and everything in between. On our 133rd edition, he talks candidly about that journey, especially the life-altering experiences.
We also talk about his advice for managing the roller coaster ride of being your own boss, and why he came out of retirement to coach (including who encouraged him to do so!). Today Aaron Walker is a coach, best-selling author, podcaster and acclaimed speaker, and he’s our guest on this edition of The Speaker Lab.
