In this episode, I had a conversation  with Darren Lee. He's an international entrepreneur, a world traveler and he is one of the best podcasts hosts in the world right now, especially when it comes to business and entrepreneurship. He's generated over 50 million views, over 30 shows, and he's the founder of Voice.  We also discussed topics such as, of course, podcasting, the trials and tribulations of entrepreneurship, his background as an athlete, as well as rescuing dogs, one of the most interesting things I've ever had on a podcast.Enjoy ;)  Apply now for a free consultation call to start your own online business:https://maxtornow.com/call How To Get 7-14 Appointments Per Week Using TikTok And Instagram:https://freedombusinessmentoring.com/30s-Podcast-Ep-252 Read more about Freedom Business Mentoring:https://www.reviews.io/company-reviews/store/maxtornow.com As one of the most influential online business consultants Max Tornow has built several multiple-7-figure companies in the online coaching, consulting and agency market.
