I'm ready for my close time. Hi and welcome back. I'm so excited. You are back here with

me this week. Okay, so I'm sure you have a lot going on with the holidays rapidly approaching

and just a craziness of life. I wanted to share some good news with you that was really

unexpected. I'm a big believer in asking for what you want. No one is going to just magically

know what it is you want or what it is you need. Give you a little backstory. One of my

great guests this year was Bob Berg, who's an amazing author. Literally has sold millions

upon millions of books, right? Incredibly successful light years ahead of me. I was really grateful.

I earlier in the year I was teaching a class and one of the students privately came to me after

class one day and said, hey, you should get a hold of this guy, Bob Berg. He's amazing.

He's an amazing, incredible author. You need to have him on your podcast. I thought, oh,

yeah, I'm sure I'll be able to get him. It's going to be so hard to get him. I sent him

a DM on LinkedIn. He immediately replied, said he would love to do my show. He did my show

was so kind and gracious. We exchanged cell phone numbers and he's just been so sweet

and kind to me promoting the show. The episode, you know, check it out earlier this year with

Bob Berg is really such a good episode. He's such a positive and inspiring person, so smart.
