Are you interested in networking but struggling because you're introverted? In this episode, we dig into networking as an introvert or extrovert and how success isn't limited to that one thing.

His humble beginnings, the adversities he faced, and his epic rise to success show that anyone, with the right motivation and the right strategies, can achieve anything they set their mind to. His soon-to-be-released second book, The Introvert's Edge to Networking, has already received endorsements from Harvard, Princeton, Neil Patel, Michael Gerber, Dr. Ivan Misner, and Marshall Goldsmith.
