What this episode covers
In episode 298 I speak with author and podcaster, Daryl Dittmer. After a humble and often tumultuous beginning to his life, Daryl has worked relentlessly on himself for almost 40 years. Having hailed from a blue-collar family and upbringing, work-ethic was instilled early and often. Daryl was put to work as a farm hand at an early age, at $1.50 per hour, and learned the immense value of hard work and long days. After being seriously challenged with drugs, alcohol, and crime, Daryl made a life-changing discovery. That was, when he stopped fighting, the fighting stopped. When I asked him, who he was fighting with, he said. 'me'. This is a powerful and essential podcast, not to be missed.
