You're listening to the Creating a Brand podcast success story segment.

I am your host, Alex San Felipe.

In this short segment of the show, I bring on friends of the podcast to share a motivational,

inspiring, and sometimes even challenging story from their entrepreneurial journey,

along with a

practical takeaway for us to implement. The point is for each of us to be able to learn and

grow from the experiences of others. With that said, please enjoy today's success story episode.

My name is Bobby Kaler, and I'm the host of the podcast Unyielded, thriving no matter what.

My book is Travels of the Heart, Developing Your Inner Leader.
