Drew’s guest, Noah Kagan got into the tech game in his 20’s. He put in long hours and sacrificed his evenings and weekends to be a top producer. He worked at Facebook and Mint.com and currently he is Chief Sumo at his own company, Sumo.com. He has had his share of successes and failures and freely shares the lessons he learned and how he challenges others to build their ‘rejection muscle’ through his coffee challenge. He doesn’t pull punches when describing what it takes to win as an entrepreneur in this frank and honest interview.
Join Drew on the Second Annual Fit2Fat2Fit Cruise in October 2018! A 7-day cruise that includes nutritional seminars, workouts, health coaches and keto-friendly meals.
