Welcome to the CLS experience. I'm your host, Craig Siegel. I'm a born and raised New Yorker

who achieved success with multiple businesses, but I crave something deeper. So I dedicated

myself to personal growth and transformation by revamping my mindset.

changing much, but things need to go wrong for you to get right, you know? So it's... I wrote in my book, you have to...

Sometimes, but realistically most of the time, I think,

you have to taste the darkness to want to see the light.

Because that's where the transformation happens in the pit.
