from Growth Minds with Sean Kim · host Sean Kim

Today he represents some of the world's biggest celebrities in sports and entertainment, including: Dennis Rodman, Pamela Anderson, Hulk Hogan, Magic Johnson, and even Muhammad Ali before his passing. But Darren's story is anything but pretty. After dealing with an opioid addiction for 24 years, he hit rock bottom despite being at the height of his career. While we hear a lot of zero to hero stories, it's rare for someone who's at the top to reveal their deepest struggles and heartbreaking moments. In this episode, we discuss: -How Darren managed to hold his empire together despite dealing with one of the hardest drug addictions -An entertaining story of how him and Dennis Rodman met (at a strip club) -How he made superstar connections and what it truly takes to become a superconnector -Practical strategies learned on how to stay in great relations over time with important people you meet -and more!
