Listen "Dare to Suck and Enjoy the Journey with Nick Nanton"
Episode Synopsis
Creating value in life takes struggle and perseverance, and many bouts of trial and error. In this episode, Bill talks with Emmy Award-Winning Director and Host Nick Nanton about daring to fail yet still enjoying the process of failing and getting back up again. With all great works, we only see the final, perfect product. But there are always far more versions thrown in the trash. From the slums of Port au Prince, Haiti, with special forces raiding a sex trafficking ring and freeing children to the Virgin Galactic Space Port in Mojave with Sir Richard Branson, 22-Time Emmy Award Winning Director/Producer Nick Nanton has become known for telling stories that connect. Why? Because he focuses on the most fascinating subject in the world: PEOPLE. As a storyteller and Best-Selling Author, Nick has shared his message with millions of people through his documentaries, speeches, blogs, lectures, and best-selling books. Nick’s book StorySelling hit the Wall Street Journal Best-Seller list and is available on Audible as an audiobook. Nick has directed more than 60 documentaries and a sold-out Broadway Show (garnering 43 Emmy nominations in multiple regions and 22 wins), including: DREAM BIG: Rudy Ruettiger LIVE on Broadway Visioneer: The Peter Diamandis Story Rudy Ruettiger: The Walk On Operation Toussaint The Rebound Connect with Nick at: Website: https://nicknanton.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicknanton/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/Nicknanton IG: https://www.instagram.com/nicknanton/ YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWOvnpNMTX4pKVIi234pOTg Twitter: https://twitter.com/nicknanton1 Show notes: [2:17] What has working been like for Nick for the past two years?
