Description

"You'll be in jail for the rest of your life by the time you're 16."

Toph Day, CEO of Elevate Ventures, heard all of these words from teachers and mentors in his life by the time he was 16. He let every single one of these sentences affect him for the better.

Toph Day has mastered the art of investing in the people and places around him to create an impact far beyond his goals and dreams. But, it didn’t come without its fair share of adversity. In this episode, he shares with Joe how different people impacted his journey—for worse and for better—and how he overcame some biting words in his early years.

In this episode you’ll learn:

1. Words and communication are filled with so much power. They have the ability to change someone’s world and give them the confidence they need to pursue their dreams.
2. We’re all going to go through struggles at some point in our lives, but you won’t get to where you want to go unless you persevere and learn from the struggles.
3. Experiences affect people in different ways. If we can have 1% more empathy for each other, the trickle-down effect can change the scope of the landscape.
