Daymond John | Breaking Cycles: Entrepreneurship as a Path to Freedom
What if the key to transformation wasn’t just about opportunity, but about mindset?In this episode, I sit down with Shark Tank star, branding guru, and best-selling author Daymond John—a man who turned $40 into the global fashion empire FUBU, proving that success isn’t about where you start, but how you think, adapt, and take action.We dive deep into the power of entrepreneurship as a path to personal and financial freedom, especially for those facing incarceration. Through my work with the Path of Freedom program, I’ve seen firsthand how a shift in mindset can open doors once thought impossible. Daymond shares how he navigated obstacles as an entrepreneur, the lessons that helped him build a $6 billion brand, and why financial literacy is one of the most overlooked tools for breaking generational cycles of limitation.Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, someone looking to reinvent yourself, or simply searching for inspiration, this conversation will challenge the way you think about success, resilience, and the power of self-determination.We Also Discuss: ● Success starts in the mind.
