David Meltzer has one simple mission, to empower over 1 billion people to be happy. The Co-founder of Sports 1 Marketing (https://sports1marketing.com/) has more than three decades of experience as an entrepreneur. He combines his inner-circle relationship capital with his vast situational knowledge to create a value-based consulting model that provides quantitative value. David is an international best-selling author, a Top 100 Business Coach, and host of the entrepreneur podcast, The Playbook (https://www.entrepreneur.com/listen/playbook) and has been recognized by Variety Magazine as their Sports Humanitarian of the Year and awarded the Ellis Island Medal of Honor in recognition of his generosity of spirit.


 


David joins us today to share what gave him the drive to become an entrepreneur and why it is essential in the fast-changing world we live in to understand and explore non-traditional career paths. He dives into the details of the turning point in his life that made him see himself clearly and subsequently led to a complete change in his mindset and behavior. David also shares how he builds and strengthens the relationships with the people he loves even when he is working away from home, and lets us in on the three non-negotiables that ensure he makes time to connect with each family member each day.
