At a young age, Daniel Blue realized if he was going to make it in this world, he’d need to develop a tough skin and keep pressing forward. Along the way, he took some hard hits and learned some valuable lessons about life, love, and finances that serve him well to this day.
Daniel Blue started his career in Sales at the ripe young age of 18, quickly earning 6-figures while powering through an addiction that continues to plague many people today. He quickly figured out how to leverage his ability to earn and create a business. He’s now the founder and CEO of Quest Education, a platform dedicated to showing people how to become their own banks and access their 401K and retirement plans tax and penalty-free. Daniel is the Co-Host of How Winners Win Podcast, and best-selling author of B.L.U.E. Print to Your Best Retirement.

Addicted to Winning connects listeners through stories that prove why mindset matters. Jeff Brekken was working a 60-hour week on his family’s farm by the time he was 10. When he wasn’t helping with the harvest, he was at the hockey rink. Jeff’s early life experiences taught him he needs to be either all-in or all-out.
In 2000 he started a single-family home construction business and by 2008 he was looking for his next big thing. Jeff founded the Blue Sky Benefit Solutions insurance agency on top of a lifelong passion for helping people. Through this show, Jeff will take that passion one step further.
