In this episode, Myron Welik (THE JackHammer) and I talk about how a few poor decisions led to him losing his multi-million-dollar business in 2002 and left him paralyzed with self-doubt and depression. Even through this catastrophic experience, Myron refused to give up and his tenacity led to him being a “16-year over-night success!”   Myron Welik is known as a “Jackhammer” and has been in the business of making deals happen for 40 years. He is the host of the Jackhammer podcast and author of “The Jackhammer Effect''. His insatiable drive and resilience have been a hallmark of his long and successful career, where he lives by the saying “Never give up, stay passionate, and work hard because it’s never too late.”  Myron identified and brokered the deal that brought Heidi Klum and New Balance together, leading to the creation of the HKNB brand. He pitched products of his own design on the Home Shopping Network to 40 million viewers. In addition – He has negotiated strategic partnerships with well-known brands such as the New England Patriots, Lacost, FIFA, Madison Square Gardens, Radio City Music Hall, and Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum.  In 2018 he met a young real estate entrepreneur that impressed him, and Myron relentlessly pursued an opportunity for them to work together. By 2020, the partnership was in place. Three and half years later, his consulting work resulted in over $40 Million Dollars of real estate investments.  Today Myron is 70 going on 50 and nothing can stop him. He is proof that age is no barrier to reinventing yourself.    I am your host, Marci Nettles. I have had a lifetime of opportunities where I had the choice to Breakdown or Breakthrough.
