Ep. 156: Rory Douglas - Wealth, Purpose and Why Success is "Found in a Pile of Mistakes"

Today, we welcome Rory Douglas to the show. Rory is a financial educator, a high-performance coach, author and the CEO of Aqua Financial Centre.  As you will hear, Rory spent a lot of time working with clients in the music industry and those with a significant amount of material wealth. So, we get into the world of wealth management and what wealth actually means. Beyond this, this is a conversation about how finding a sense of purpose and meaning can (as we've explored before on the show) serve as a powerful anchor in the midst of stormy waters. But that takes work – it doesn't 'just happen'. We explore that too. We also get into Rory's background growing up with dyslexia and that that meant to his development  - and we get into an interesting phenomenon the population of entrepreneurs have twice as many dyslexics as the general working population of most advanced economies. We also get into decision-making, dealing with setbacks, and much more.
