SPECIAL EPISODE: Robert’s Interview On "Beyond The Crucible" Podcast - Following His Dream And Inspiring You To Follow Yours

Episode Notes

Everybody has a dream. My youthful dream was to become a rock star. I finally followed my dream later in life when I formed my band, Project Grand Slam. A year ago I started the Follow Your Dream podcast in order to inspire and motivate you to follow your dream. From time to time I like to remind you of my story, so you can see for yourselves that, as I like to say, you're never too old, and it's never too late, to follow your dream.

Recently I was interviewed on a terrific podcast called Beyond The Crucible, and I decided to re-broadcast the interview as a Special Episode of this podcast, because the interview skillfully lays out my story and tells you the precise steps that I took toward my dream and that anyone can take. The interview is chock full of "value bombs" that I hope will inspire and motivate you to follow and succeed at your dream.
