In this powerful episode, I sit down with Jake Shannon, the #1 Elite 10X Business Coach for Grant Cardone Enterprises and creator of Scientific Wrestling.
Jake brings a unique perspective to business coaching by applying high-performance sports principles to entrepreneurship through his concept of “Sportification.” With a background in financial mathematics and over 14 years of business coaching experience, Jake shares how his obsession with metrics and accountability has helped his clients achieve an average 1,023% return on their coaching investment. From setting ambitious targets to implementing Navy SEAL-level discipline, Jake reveals why playing big faster requires the courage to be selfish about your goals and the wisdom to reverse-engineer your path to success.
