In fact, you're about to meet a very special gentleman. Like most of my guests, he started out as a low-level bank employee and realized there had to be a better way. So he took the winding road until he hit upon his big idea. Today he is the CEO of

Virtual Summit Mastery with thousands of students who generate hundreds of

thousands of email subscribers every month and today of Navid Mossus to the show. Thanks so much for having me.

It's a pleasure being on.

Excellent, Navi.

It's great to have you as well.

So tell us a little bit about how you got started in all of this.

Yes, you mentioned this really kind intro, by the way. I started as a really kind of low level bank employee. I was actually in law school first after I graduated from high school. I got right into law school and then I got a part-time job at a bank so I kind of you know was able to get by basically but a few years into kind of my law school journey I thought I was going to become this hot shot lawyer and all this, maybe because that's what I was expected to do.

My dad is from Iran, my mom is from Sweden, and from an Iranian dad's perspective, I was expected to become either a lawyer, a doctor,

dentist or engineer, and I didn't get into some of these other professions.
