Do you have the guts to fail forward?

In this episode of the I Own It Podcast, we are honored to have Anthony Scaramucci, an American financier and the former White House Director of Communications. He has published five books, is Chairman of the thought leadership forum SALT, and is a board member of the Brain Tumor Foundation.

After going to law school and building a business, he delved into politics to network – turning it into one of the most prominent and controversial steps in his career.  If he can own his mistakes and learn from them… so can YOU!

Growing up with a sheltered childhood may have caught him in some slip-ups, but he never let anything stop him from dreaming big and realizing his goals. He laughs and rolls with the absurdity of life. And look where it has taken him now.

Tune into this episode as Anthony Scaramucci gets honest about his new perspective on his past political affiliation, his mantras for overcoming obstacles, how to invest for the long haul, and why learning from your defeats is key in moving forward.
