Skip a Step is not another get rich quick guide from business moguls who amassed a fortune. It’s meant for a new generation who do not just want to get rich, but wish instead to find meaning and purpose in life. Each chapter contains a close interview with an entrepreneur or leader making a difference in the world and divulging the wisdom they received from slaying the dragons in their own lives to achieve success. It is not just about wealth or success that we want you, the listener, to walk away learning, but rather the struggle, triumphs and challenges faced and felt that have impacted the lives of the people we interviewed in Skip a Step. So many young people are programmed from an early age to go to school, get good grades, attend college, and then hope for a good-paying job. This used to be the “safe” approach to obtaining a successful life. But every once in awhile, a maverick as you will listen in Skip a Step, comes along and bucks the trend. This person doesn’t play it safe. Instead, they take risks. Perhaps they drop out of school. They put their heart and soul into building a company that has never existed before, offering a crucial product or service that no one else is providing. By doing something so disruptive and wholly original, they attain success on their terms. As a culture we celebrate these gutsy individualists as entrepreneurs.

Our goal is for each listener to learn that a successful life is a meaningful life and that each of us has something special to contribute if we face our challenges with courage, love, and passion.
