Episode notes

The podcast was new for me in two thousand 21. And this stemmed from from a few things, but one of which is a conference that i'd have a year at this yearly conference called refuel,. That is grown from nothing to last year we had ten thousand tendes, raised about 80 thousand dollars for charity. So it's been an effort and juggling a bunch of other things, including running a large company and starting a new venture.

Joe Chura is an entrepreneur, inventor, and investor philanthropist. He founded and bootstrapped two companies, Launch Digital Marketing and Dealer Inspire, that both became two of the fastest growing companies in America, earning the #39 spot on the Inc. 500 and #5 ranking on Crain’s Chicago Fast 50. In 2018, Joe sold both businesses to Cars.com in Chicago’s largest acquisition of the year, and he continues to lead their growth and innovation today as CEO. Joe’s passion is using his leadership and health and fitness experiences to help others achieve their goals, which led him to start his podcast, Not Almost There, in January of 2021.

I find out during our conversation what Almost Not There means and how he got started with it. Then we discuss Joe's unique meditation ritual, what you can learn from people (good and not-so good), the importance of small moments, and a whole lot more.
