The Exceptional Sales Leader Podcast
From Psych Ward to Shark Tank – Akeem Shannon
I am a big fan of the Hero’s Journey, and have come to understand that every single one of us are on our own Hero’s Journey and will be at different stages. In today’s episode, I have the absolute pleasure of speaking with Akeem Shannon, the Founder & CEO of Flipstik, and a man who has been on an incredible journey. From being bullied at 15 for being different, to flunking out of college at 19, being admitted to a mental hospital at 23 and appearing on Shark Tank at 28, Akeem’s journey has been one of persistence, of confronting his challenges, and the importance of having incredible people in your corner to help & guide you along the way. This is a must listen for anyone looking to take their performance to a new level. I hope you enjoy the conversation.
