E319 Professional Basketball, 7-figure Financial Success, and the Importance of Family and Fitness w/ Ty Morris

In this episode, CJ has a conversation with Ty Morris. In the last two decades, Ty has been a professional basketball player, in capital markets sales, a real estate developer and PE/VC investor, and has lived in two different countries and six different cities (Chicago, Boston, Indianapolis, Denver, NYC and Cluj-Napoca Romania). Life transitions and how to THRIVE during them... are very familiar to him. He's made 7-figures in three different industries, which gives him perspectives on how to help other young people go from 0-1 in brand new settings. Today, along with being a loving husband and father, his mission is to remove the roadblocks in human connection through the use of evergreen communication tools.
