As our lives and businesses change, so often our approach does as well. Savage to Sage was started to explore the topics of self-care, self-awareness and multiplication as business owners. In this episode, I chat with Mike Kelly about what it means to remain savage while going through sage evolution both as business owners and individuals.

For the first half of this podcast, I interview Mike and then he flips the script and interviews me in the second half. You’ll learn what compelled Mike onto a path he could not have foreseen, why I took a break from the podcast and am now returning, and more. I hope you gain some savage direction and sage wisdom from this episode as Savage to Sage resumes! 

“If I look back and would say what was the hallmark of what got me started on that path, it was just the ability to work hard. To do the job that nobody else wants to do. Have no ego in it. Do it to the best of your ability and you will be recognized for that. And that will attract a certain class of people to you who also want to work hard; who also tend to be less ego-focused and are willing to do whatever it takes to win, to get the job done.” -- Mike Kelly
