Mike “C-Roc” Ciorrocco: How To Turn Setbacks Into Rocket Fuel In Your Business and Family

Today on the podcast we’re welcoming Mike “C-Roc” and his wife Jennifer. Mike is a performance coach, author, speaker and thought leader. He’s on a mission to encourage people to share their stories and build authenticity in their lives. Growing up in a broken home, Mike quickly realized that if he wanted to build an amazing life, he was going to have to use his past trauma as what he calls “Rocket Fue (https://www.mikecroc.com/book?_gl=1*xo35gd*_ga*MzM3Nzc1NTI1LjE2MDk3NzU4Mzg.*_ga_CGKRFEXL41*MTYwOTgwMTc1MC4yLjEuMTYwOTgwMTgyNS4w) l,” to propel him forward. He believes that our spirit, put in us by God, is unbreakable and that you can achieve anything you want in life. C-Roc has built a highly successful mortgage division with his best friends, twice, and is #1 on the list of the Top Mortgage Professionals by Yahoo! Finance.


 


In this episode we discuss how Mike has used his traumatic upbringing as Rocket Fuel, why being stubborn is a good thing, how he and his wife lead the family, the importance of listening to your partner, staying present, communication with your spouse and instilling a work ethic in your kids.
