On Today's Episode:
Are you struggling with gaining the respect from your family, your workplace, or friends? How can you command their respect and be acknowledged for your many accomplishments? In this Q & A with Tom, class is in session, so get ready to learn the truth about the respect so many of us value and want to have more of. Tom talks about being so ridiculously good that you can’t be ignored, but he also gives you actionable tips and areas to focus on if you want to gain the respect you deserve from your family and workplace, even if you are at your lowest point. In the words of Kobe Bryant, “Boos don’t block dunks,” and your respect is more about you than anyone else.
