542: Future-Proofing You with Jay Samit (an Encore Presentation of Episode 369)

I always enjoy welcoming a returning guest. In this instance, it’s been nearly six years since he last appeared. I’m talking about author Jay Samit, who wrote one of my favorite books of 2015. It’s called Disrupt You!: Master Personal Transformation, Seize Opportunity, and Thrive in an Endless Era of Innovation. The book we’re diving into this time around is another stellar read. It’s called Future-Proofing You: Twelve Truths for Creating Opportunity, Maximizing Wealth, and Controlling your Destiny in an Uncertain World. It’s perfect for anyone who is tired of jobs with no security (amen!), hopes to truly realize their professional and personal potential (where do I sign up?), and is looking for a way to build a better life for them and their family (yes, please!).  I hope you’ll click the play button below to learn more about Jay and his work.
