Mark generated over $90,000,000 in sales for the fast-growing tech startups he worked for by bringing together teams of executives and technical leaders to close complex multimillion-dollar sales. He’s experienced, firsthand, the pressure of the “hustle and grind” culture along with the unique challenges of the “C-Suite.” This experience, together with his years of training as a coach and facilitator, helps his clients create sustainable and lasting success in all areas of their lives. He is the author of Only 10s 2.0: Confront Your To-Do List and Transform Your Life and hosts the “Mastering Midlife Podcast.”

In this episode, Mark joins me to share his story on how he shifted into his coaching profession. Mark shares how he was able to overcome hardship in his life and learn to accept himself. He talks about times when he got in the way of his own energy and how it affected him. He also explains the importance of spirituality in his life and how this has helped him better understand how he can help his clients.

“I want to teach people to figure out their own treasure map and what it is, so they can go where they need to go.” – Mark Silverman
