Golden Years Ep1: Jack Levitt
Jack Levitt's 91 years old. He's still a practicing lawyer in New York City. He takes daily walks of 2-3 miles and has a sharper intellect and fashion sense than most people I know. Here, he shares one powerful piece of wisdom for navigating life's big decisions—especially helpful for those prone to over-analysis, such as myself. Enjoy.

Cosette "CoCo" Leary - Author, Keynote Speaker, Coach
Cosette "CoCo" Leary recently published a book called “From Welfare to the White House”; she went from raising four children off $742 per month to getting a position on Capitol Hill. Now she has returned with a mission: to guide others on a similar journey—from simple existence to living out your deepest talents and passions.
I got my mind blown twice, brains splattered across the walls, with several mini-blows along the way. I came away a different person. Perhaps you will too. -
Jelani Memory - Founder/CCO, Circle Media
Jelani Memory is founder and CCO of Circle Media.
Circle Media gained national attention when one of their products—Circle—was picked up by Disney after a failed Kickstarter.
Jelani lives a principled and focused life. He talks about what makes people reluctant to take risks (even when it could lead to deep fulfillment), as well as one of our biggest roadblocks: the illusion that we need permission to pursue the things we love.
Customer Reviews
Wisdom from people doing what they love
This podcast is a great way to get insight into the attitudes and stories of people who are doing professionally whatever it is they most love in life. It's inspiring to see where the conversations go and to realize that much of what they talk about can be applied by anyone.
Setting a higher standard!
This podcast is full of substantive advice on doing work that inspires you. The interviews are honest and engaging with an interviewer that is equally relevant to these discussions, as well as passionate about the subject matter. Bravo!
Great concept, great interviews
Harris picks great guests and asks them an interesting question, "how did you get to do the thing you love?" He knows when to sit back in the interview and let the guest tell their story, which many interviewers don't understand.
