In this episode, Amy welcomes Bob DePasquale, also known as The Generosity Guy, to discuss the profound impact of generosity and abundance in both personal and professional spheres.
Bob shares his inspiring journey from aspiring athlete to financial expert, highlighting how his life-changing cancer diagnosis at 18 years old along with his emotionally-charged 9/11 story, led him to a deeper understanding of what it means to live abundantly.
