Tony Stark's Hero Up Podcast
by Tony Stark Policci
Hero Up: Everyone loves a great hero story, but only some know they have what it takes to be the hero in their own life.The Hero Up podcast is here to give you practical, actionable advice and insights into the stuff I'm known for (copywriting and marketing), but that's just a tiny piece of the show. I'm going to talk about mindset, lifestyle, impact…and being freaking human. We are going to talk very openly about things in your business or personal life that fall into any of these categories: unexpected, traumatic, heartbreaking, terrifying, miraculous, extraordinary, life-changing.If you have goals that changed, dreams you gave up on for something else, hard lessons learned, big successes, big failures, finding faith, losing faith, addiction, love... things you were unsure how to achieve - this is the place to find commonality, connection, and confidence to be the hero you were created to be!
