Summary

In this episode, I'm sharing a new installment in the "Founder's Journey" series about starting from zero. Humble beginnings are nothing to be ashamed of.

0:00.0	In today's episode of the podcast, I'm talking about what it means to start from zero.
0:06.8	And the thought behind this episode starts or stems from this Instagram post that I make every single year. I've done it the last couple
0:15.8	of years and it sees these clips of me from 2012, 2013 where I'm fumbling over my words.
0:26.0	I'm trying to articulate words and tell story and share information and create content.
0:39.6	And it's when I was first getting started with my entrepreneurial journey. I was nervous, I was timid, I wasn't confident or comfortable talking to camera or trying to
0:48.4	build my business. And if you look at those clips back then compared to where I've grown into what I'm doing today,
0:58.5	there is a huge difference, a large contrast. But the reality is that we all start from zero and we all have the
1:07.2	ability to grow and change and develop but we get to choose that growth. But I want this episode to be a

1:54.5	Founders by or the host is David Senra and what he does is he reads autobiographies and biographies of world leaders, entrepreneurs, athletes,
2:11.0	some of the best and most successful in the world,
2:14.2	and then he summarizes these biographies and autobiographies.
2:17.6	So the one specifically that I was listening to this past weekend
2:20.3	on my morning run was all about the story of in and out the fast food
2:26.9	burger or fry and shake restaurant that some of you may have experienced in your lifetime, especially if you're from
2:35.2	California. Being here in Texas, we actually have an in and out that is three miles, maybe less from where I'm currently sitting in our HQ.
2:48.0	When I got to Texas in 2014, realizing that there was in and out here something I heard of my entire life
2:56.8	I was mind-blown and me and my brother Preston we had to try it and we fell in love with in and out. And after listening to this
