Summary

In May 2019, after finding a cancerous tumor in his bladder larger than a baseball, Mel Abraham who had been called the influencer’s influencer and the “thought leader to thought leaders found his true passion and calling. To help other entrepreneurs find the same financial liberation that allowed him to shut his business down (temporarily) so he could heal

Mel began his entrepreneurial journey at age 11 performing magic shows for parties. It was this early taste of entrepreneurship that spurred him on to look at how to create a life on his own terms through entrepreneurship. Fueled by his education and background as a CPA, Mel spent most of his early career obsessing about understanding what drives business success but more importantly how to create a life by design through entrepreneurship and business.

Mel learned how to build a business from nothing after a partnership breakup left him with no clients, no cash flow, no work backlog and almost half a million dollars in debt. It was during this time where as Mel rebuilt his business and life that he got what he calls his “greatest business lesson from a 6-year old boy”. That same year was when Mel became a single full-time dad of his 6-year old son. Shortly, after that his son gave Mel the vision of how his son saw him by drawing a picture of him. It was this picture the woke Mel up to the realization that it isn’t about “business for business sake but business for life sake” and that it is more important to get the meaning of business right before focusing on the mechanics of business.

Through childhood beliefs that needed to shifts, to a custody battle, to business failures and then a scary cancer diagnosis that put it all into perspective.
