Milford Stevenson - Ghana to the United States - A Father's story

Send us Fan MailToday's episode is dedicated to the late #Don #Harvey, who took the time to mentor our next guest, Milford Stevenson.  I was graciously introduced to Milford through the talented Patrick Oyeku, who, as you might remember, was a fantastic previous guest.  Don took Milford's cold call and helped guide him to start his own staffing firm based in Houston, Texas.  Don helped enforce the word #BELIEVE, a core message he shares with his daughters.  Milford is a seasoned Software as a Service (#SaaS) Product Manager with +15 years of experience across various industries such as Oil & Gas, Investment Banking, Consumer Goods, and Startups. He has led and contributed to R&D, Product Management, UX/UI, Product Design, Legal, and Go-to-Market (GTM) strategies for Enterprise and Consumer-Facing products.Today, we talk to Milford, the dad.  We learn how his family migrated from Ghana to the United States.  We learn what it was like to learn about what he thought America was and what it actually was when he arrived.  You will learn about the core values his family taught him, which include intense gratitude and belonging.  Milford is a #girldad who loves spending time with his family.   There were a lot of great wisdom Milford shares with us in this episode, including one of my favorite sayings he teaches us - "Be intentional, not transactional."   Lastly, Milford reminds us to always be physically and emotionally present with our spouse and children.  We must be hands on, and demonstrate the behaviors we want to live out.  To learn more about Milford, you can find him on LinkedIn or visit their website at www.openstaff.io.Established in 2006, Acme Homes WAOne of the most value-based home builders in the state of Washington!
